Bringing People Closer

For over 40 years

Shachak Lifts’ story began in 1980, when Shimon and Yael Amrad set out to build a different kind of company, one defined by uncompromising professionalism, personal service, and genuine care.

What started as a small, family-run metal workshop has grown into one of Israel’s leading lift companies. Today, Shachak operates nationwide, delivers hundreds of projects each year, and is known for its high standards, dependable performance, and meticulous execution. With responsive support and long-standing customer trust, Shachak continues to strengthen its presence across Israel.

In 2016, leadership passed to the next generation, Chen Amrad and Shimon Ben Zaken, who brought fresh energy and forward-looking approach, driving Shachak’s nationwide expansion.

Together, strengthened the company’s family foundations while accelerating professional growth.
In 2023, Shachak entered a new era, taking a bold step forward by appointing a professional executive team and establishing a Board of Directors to lead the company into the future.

This pivotal shift marked a new chapter in the Company’s journey—elevating Shachak from a family business into a market leader, while remaining true to its founding values: excellence, transparency, genuine service, and open communication.

We design, manufacture, test, install, modernise, service, and support lift systems—wherever people move: at home, at work, in shopping centres, offices, and schools. We are here to get you to your destination safely.

Our nationwide team of engineers, certified installers, and service technicians brings extensive expertise, strong commitment, and meticulous attention to detail. Every solution is tailored to each customer’s needs and site conditions, delivering a full range of professional services—from hands-on support through to long-term maintenance.

We are the exclusive distributors of ORONA (Spain) and SJEC (China), global leaders recognised for advanced technology, refined design, and stringent quality standards.

We don’t just move people – we support them every step of the way.

We see every customer as a long-term partner. We take the time to understand your needs, remain available, think ahead, and turn every project into a success story.

Shachak's People

Orit Rainhartz

Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Orit brings over 25 years of proven leadership and executive management experience in complex, highly competitive industrial environments. Before joining Shachak Lifts in 2023, she served as CEO of a subsidiary of a major international corporation, where she led global R&D teams and managed end-to-end supply chain operations in Israel and worldwide. Earlier in her career, she was CEO of a business unit supporting leading customers in Israel and globally across the defence and medical sectors. Orit brings a rare combination of strategic thinking, operational excellence, and deep customer insight. She believes in leadership that brings innovation together with excellence.

On a personal note
Her commitment to challenge and continuous improvement reflects her passion for orienteering competitions in Israel and abroad through the Israeli Orienteering Association -an athletic and mental sport that proves it always pays to stay focused on the goal. When Orit isn’t driving the Company forward, she’s likely navigating her way to the next destination out in the forest.

Yehuda Maor

VP, Service Division

With over 25 years of hands-on leadership experience in high-stakes industries across the lifts, telecommunications, and automotive sectors, Yehuda has led Shachak’s Service Division since 2019. He oversees nationwide service operations, managing teams of technicians, service centres, and subcontractors, while championing innovative processes and smart operational tools. Known for leading large-scale organisations, Yehuda combines forward-thinking leadership with a sharp understanding of customer needs and top-tier service. His unwavering focus on operational excellence and customer commitment consistently delivers outstanding value and reliability.
