Benefits of Platform Lifts

  • Improved Accessibility: Platform lifts provide a simple solution for enhancing disability access, allowing individuals with mobility challenges to move freely between floors in public buildings and commercial buildings.
  • Compact and Space-Saving: A small platform lift is designed to fit into an existing building with minimal structural modifications, making it ideal for properties with limited floor space.
  • Cost-Effective Alternative: Compared to traditional passenger lifts, a new platform lift is more affordable to install and maintain, offering a practical option for businesses looking to improve accessibility.
  • Energy-Efficient Design: Modern platform elevators incorporate latest technology to reduce energy consumption, ensuring sustainability and lower operational costs.
  • Customisable Solutions: With a range of platform lifts available, they can be tailored to fit different spaces, offering various styles, finishes, and sizes to blend seamlessly into a building’s aesthetic.

Safety Features and Maintenance

  • Advanced Safety Sensors: Many platform lifts feature latest industry standards such as obstruction detection systems to prevent accidents, ensuring smooth and secure operation.
  • Emergency Stop Function: Equipped with an emergency stop button, a platform lift allows users to halt movement instantly in case of an emergency, enhancing passenger safety.
  • Regular Maintenance and Compliance: To ensure long-term reliability, routine servicing is crucial. A trusted platform lift company will provide regular inspections, lubrication, and repairs to keep the lift in optimal condition.
  • Regulatory Compliance: All new platform lift installations must meet industry regulations, including the Equality Act and Part M of the Building Regulations, guaranteeing accessibility and safety in public buildings and commercial buildings.

Commercial Applications

Platform lifts are widely utilised in commercial settings, including offices, schools, hospitals, and retail environments. Key commercial applications include:

  • Office Buildings: Platform lifts are often installed in office buildings to facilitate access to various floors and areas, ensuring that all employees and visitors can navigate the building freely, fostering an inclusive work environment.
  • Schools: Platform lifts are commonly found in schools, providing access to classrooms, auditoriums, and other areas. This ensures that students, staff, and visitors with mobility challenges can easily move around the school.
  • Hospitals: In hospitals, platform lifts ensure access to patient rooms, operating theaters, and other critical areas, playing an essential role in enabling patients and healthcare professionals to move efficiently and safely within the facility.
  • Retail Spaces: Platform lifts in retail spaces provide access to different levels and areas, enhancing the shopping experience for all customers, including those with mobility impairments, and ensuring the retail space is accessible to everyone.

Cost and Budgeting

The cost of a platform lift varies based on the lift's type, size, and features. Consider these general cost factors:

  • Initial Installation Cost: The initial cost of installing a platform lift can range from £5,000 to £50,000 or more, depending on the lift's type and size. It's crucial to assess the building's specific needs and select a lift that meets those requirements.
  • Maintenance Costs: Regular maintenance expenses can range from £500 to £2,000 annually, depending on the type and frequency of maintenance. Investing in regular maintenance ensures safe and efficient lift operation, reducing the likelihood of costly repairs.
  • Energy Costs: Energy costs vary based on the lift's type and usage, but many platform lifts are designed to be energy-efficient, helping to keep operational costs low while also supporting environmental sustainability.
  • Budgeting: When considering a platform lift for a commercial building, it's essential to budget for the initial installation cost, as well as ongoing maintenance and energy expenses. Proper budgeting ensures that the lift remains a cost-effective and reliable solution for enhancing accessibility.

By understanding the benefits, safety features, commercial applications, and cost considerations of platform lifts, building owners and managers can make informed decisions that improve accessibility and inclusivity in their spaces
