lowerable

Able to drop

Lowerable describes something that can be lowered—moved downward or reduced in height or position.

The term appears most often in technical or product contexts: lowerable shelves, a lowerable desk, lowerable suspension.

It's functional rather than elegant, formed by adding -able to the verb lower.
