Why choose a lift consultancy? 

LIFT PORTFOLIO
As the requirement regards technical understanding increases as lift installations become more complicated, support of the Client and their representatives is all the more important when dealing with Lift Companies.

By recognising trends in breakdowns or highlighting issues in relation to reliability and by doing so reducing the level of downtime and unforeseen costs, Lift Consultants support their clients and their client residents.

By knowing what lifts are installed, where and by assessing the lift and the maintenance provider in order to ensure that all necessary works are carried out and not works for the convenience of the service provider which may have become necessary due to poor maintenance.
It is frequent in the housing market especially for large housing associations or property managers to be faced with unfamiliar terms, legislation or statements, making it harder for them to provide decent service for their residents and thus keeping their lifts to a safe standard.
A lift consultancy would help in collating relevant technical information to build an accurate Asset Registry that would be beneficial not only for knowing how many lifts are on the portfolio but also how much to budget for in relation of modernisation or replacement when the lifts come to the end of their working lives.

COMPLIANCE WITH LEGISLATION
With the ever changing Legislation it is very important not to disregard the compliance of your installations e.g. with the Disability Discrimination Act or any other regulations that have come into force. A lift audit would provide necessary information to assess where compliance is a requirement in relation to your installations, providing a safer means of transportation for your residents and to a greater extent avoid any claim should an accident happen.
