Lifts generate a lot of interest and excitement in a building and add value to place in the way they can quite dramatically improve the flow of people and goods. Selecting the right lift is a complex mix of people, situation, property finance and regulation so expect to be confused and at a loss for words.

Platform lifts elevators and escalator access

Get started with the basics; In the interests of public safety and disability – usability, our lift and elevators regulation is on par with motor vehicle regulation and so too are the cost.  In comparison with a family car, the price of a lift will range between a mini entry level product to a fully functional limousine.

Every lift installation is unique and customised to suit the architecture and structural engineering, which naturally costs and impacts on the project schedule, but it’s worth it. Unlike a car, a lift will add value to your building, increase yields and pedestrian flow and drive sales.

Best of all, many elevators in  heritage buildings originally  installed by the likes of Kone, Otis, ThyssenKrupp, Schindler are still working without fail today, as intended a century ago. Notice one thing here; none of the names above are Australian, which might indicate to a reasonable person the presence of significant regulatory roadblocks.

Architects, Lift Engineers and their clients call us because we understand lift compliance and we know how to foster design and innovation by mediating solutions to what can seem to be an intractable gridlock.
