Invalifts Unclaimed profile

Invalifts is a Tamworth-based specialist in disability access lifts, formed in 2000 to meet the demand for accessible buildings that followed the Disability Discrimination Act and later the Equality Act. The company focuses on platform lifts and short-rise lifting solutions that give wheelchair users, walking aid users and people with reduced mobility safe, independent access to public and private buildings.

The product range covers vertical platform lifts, enclosed cabin lifts, inclined platform stairlifts for existing staircases, and step lifts for one or two-step changes of level. Because platform lifts travel slowly and are not fully enclosed passenger cabins, they are regulated under the Machinery Directive rather than the Lift Directive, which allows them to be retrofitted into existing buildings with far less structural work than a conventional passenger lift. Invalifts supplies products from established European manufacturers including Aritco, Vimec and Motala.

Services go well beyond supply. Invalifts offers site surveys and specification advice for architects and contractors, installation, servicing and maintenance contracts, repairs and a full stock of genuine spare parts. Its team works nationwide across England, Wales and Scotland, supporting both single local projects and organisations with multiple sites.

Typical customers include schools, care homes, churches, theatres, hotels, retailers and homeowners adapting their properties. The company holds CHAS, SafeContractor, ConstructionLine and EPSA accreditations, and works to BSI ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards. For building owners and specifiers who want a technically rigorous, access-focused lift partner rather than a general lift contractor, Invalifts offers a depth of sector experience that is hard to match.
