The Law & Lifts

The law which covers the use of lifts in the UK, is the Disabled Discrimination Act 1995. The final stage of the DDA 1995 came into effect on the 1st October 2004, it states:

"Service providers may have to make permanent physical adjustments to their premises to give disabled people access to their goods or services."
"It is unlawful for a provider of goods, facilities or services to discriminate against a disabled person. In refusing to provide, or deliberately not providing, to the disabled person any service which he provides, or is prepared to provide, to members of the public."

All of our lifts adhere to current regulations whilst we pride ourselves on quality and reliability. This is backed by our knowledge of the required British and European standards to which our lift units are built. This means we can offer expert advice on all aspects of sales and installation.

If you are a service provider or require advice on how you can improve your accessibility by use of a platform lift, you can call us on 0845 475 4091
