Customer Brief

8 x SB200 Platform Lifts for Townhouse Development

The client approached us with a clear brief: supply and install eight SB200 platform lifts across a multi-unit townhouse development.

 

They were already familiar with the product and had progressed well into the construction phase, so their priority was to confirm specifications quickly and secure production slots with the manufacturer.

Approach

After receiving the project plans, our team prepared an initial proposal and arranged a site inspection to verify key installation details.

During the early project phase we:

• Reviewed architectural drawings and confirmed lift specifications
• Visited site to assess installation access and take final measurements
• Coordinated with the builder to confirm installation sequencing
• Negotiated with the manufacturer to secure improved pricing for the eight-lift order
• Finalised all order specifications within 10 days of the first enquiry

 

Once confirmed, the lifts were placed into production to meet the required construction timeline.

Project Challenges

Difficult site access on steep unfinished drive. Needed to crane lift packages (4 per unit) over building and down onto rear balcony as street level was the top story and lift installation has to start at the bottom 3 levels down. Limited storage space on site. Other trades also working on site. Delays in shipping meat tight delivery timeframe for installation. Clients were slow to pay and difficult to contact.

Lessons Learned

Projects like this reinforce the importance of strong early-stage planning.

For future multi-unit developments we would:

• Establish clearer payment milestones and terms
• Spend additional time confirming delivery logistics and site access conditions before production

 

These steps help ensure smoother coordination across complex construction environments.

What We're Most Proud Of

This project showcased the strength of our entire organisation.

We are particularly proud of:

Our installation team – who managed a complex installation environment safely and efficiently.

Our sales and administration team – who secured and confirmed the project within a very short timeframe while maintaining professionalism throughout a challenging client relationship.

Our manufacturing partner – who supported the project with competitive pricing, reliable delivery coordination, and a high-quality product.

From day one that we had the lift installed this company has been brilliant. And today Boxing Day of all days they still sent someone out this morning when the lift just wouldn’t operate. Being in a wheelchair and so reliant on the lift every day I am so grateful. Thank you sincerely Lifts for Life.
