When doing a lift repair, making sure the lift works and making sure there are no future problems is our top priority. We recently faced a challenging situation where a client’s lift went out of service. The initial assessment from their current supplier suggested a very costly repair with a lengthy downtime, estimated to be in the thousands. The client was understandably concerned about the financial and operational impact.

Our dedicated team at Nationwide Lift Services quickly sprang into action. Instead of opting for the expensive overhaul, our experts meticulously diagnosed the issue and identified key components that could be replaced to get the lift back in operation.

Within just 48 hours, we had the lift fully operational, saving the client significant time and money!

• Efficient Problem-Solving: Leveraging expertise to find cost-effective solutions.

Recently we completed a Lift Refurbishment in stoke, we gave a lift in Stoke a serious glow-up. Picture this: the lift used to be just your regular, run-of-the-mill lift, but after we worked our magic, it’s now a swanky telephone box. Yes, you heard that right! You can chat with your mates and travel between floors at the same time. How’s that for multitasking?

We swapped out the lift control system, door operator, hydraulic tank, and all those electrical bits that nobody ever understands. And while we were busy doing that, we couldn’t help but admire the client’s quirky decor choice. Who knew refurbishing lifts could be so entertaining?

A lift refurbishment isn’t just about making things shiny and new. It’s about boosting safety, comfort, and style. Especially in places like care homes where every minute counts. We can swoop in, install a new control system, wire everything up, and have it all done in no time at all! Need a new interior or upgraded doors? We’ve got you covered. We can make your lift smoother, safer, and more reliable—basically the superhero of lifts.

Our secret…  High-quality, open protocol solutions that give you peace of mind and flexibility. Whether you need a shiny new car controller, a snazzy lift interior, or new doors we’ve got you sorted.

We like to think of ourselves as lift service experts in Staffordshire. Our lift engineers are highly trained in traditional lift maintenance. We do not just turn up for a visual inspection of your lift, nor do we rush the service visit. 

Our lift technicians are trained to do a full risk assessment of your lift equipment on site. This means that it is our goal to make sure we know all work that needs to be done to improve the lift safety and regulations. Often our lift service experts are on site for two or three hours doing a detailed report for our customers. And we don’t charge anymore for this as we work with partners with all our customers.

Nationwide Lift Services offer an excellent lift service to all our customers in the Staffordshire region that include care homes, local councils, NHS and retail clients. We truly understand our customers needs and we work very closely with all our customers.

Did you know the minimum lift maintenance requirement is two visits per annum and not four? We think two very good thorough visits is better than four rushed ones like some companies do.

Our engineers are tasked on breakdowns to find the issue and rectify if possible or source the parts required. We don’t just turn up to do a quick reset and charge you.

Traditional lift maintenance means our experienced lift engineers have more time to look after your lifts on site. By offering the right lift service, our engineers can help cut down on call-outs, breakdowns and costs.

For Lift Servicing or maintenance please contact us on 01782562000 or info@nationwideliftservices.co.uk

Nationwide Lift Services can also do LOLER inspections nationwide for all types of lifts and escalators. LOLER also requires that all equipment used for lifting is fit for purpose, appropriate for the task, suitably marked and, in many cases, subject to statutory periodic ‘thorough examination‘. Records must be kept of all thorough examinations and any defects found must be reported to both the person responsible for the equipment and the relevant enforcing authority.

We have recently been working on a lift refurbishment project in Liverpool for a care home. During our time on site (5 days), we replaced the lift control system, door operator, hydraulic tank and all other electrical components.

A Lift Refurbishment can improve the safety, comfort and appearance of a lift in an existing building. For sites where downtime is key, say in an existing care home where the lift is crucial, we can offer this solution. We can deliver and install a new control system, all associated wiring and controls within 3 weeks from order. We can also offer new lift interiors, lift door upgrades and like with new lifts, we can do any associated building or electrical work.

A Lift Refurbishment is a great way to revitalise an existing lift, when you are not wanting the upheaval of a full lift replacement, a solution from us is a good idea. Lift upgrades are basically a replacement of all key electrical components which ensures that the lift is more reliable. The LEIA advise that a lift modernisation is considered on lifts over 15 years old. These are a quick and environmentally friendly solution.
