Passenger Lift for Southend Apartment Block

The seaside town of Southend in Essex has remained a lively spot for visitors and holiday-makers ever since the construction of the ‘world’s longest pier’ in the late 1900s. Since then its proximity to London has ensured its popularity, and the town’s vibrant High Street has transformed itself many times in the past 150 years to cater to the tastes of its tourists. Currently the newly refurbished Victoria Shopping Centre is revitalising the upper High Street, and Tower Lifts are delighted to be making their own contribution to the area’s regeneration by installing a passenger lift in one of the High Street’s historic properties.

8 Person Passenger Lift for 3-5 High Street, Southend

3-5 High Street has until recently comprised 3 floors of office suites. The current owners are refurbishing the building to create contemporary apartments housed in the classic architecture of a bygone age. We were asked to install an 8-person passenger lift which would travel over five floors, ensuring that these desirable residencies would be accessible to a range of potential occupants.

Lift Finishes Reflecting the Style of Surroundings

We were asked to provide specific finishes for our passenger lift installation, in keeping with the overall design of the apartment building. The urban contemporary feel which characterises the public areas of the building is reflected in the bold orange perpendicular signage on the passenger lift doors, whilst the historic nature of the building is represented by elegant Art Deco moulding which frames the metallic elevator doors, reminding passengers of the contrasting past and the present features which combine to create the context for their apartments.

Tower Lifts Works with Clients to Enhance Refurbished Buildings

A passenger lift installation sits at the heart of an apartment block; it provides access but it also links the disparate floors and occupants together, forming a community. As such, it’s important that a communal passenger lift is reliable, safe and in keeping with the aesthetic of the building. By contrast, buildings with shabby and/or creaking passenger lifts communicate a lack of pride, care or aspiration and can quickly lower the value of the property as a whole. The Tower Lifts team are always excited to contribute to a dynamic aesthetic, and we enjoy working closely with developers on a concept or vision we can enhance.

Reliable Lift Solutions – Modernising Milton Keynes Office Spaces

Successful commercial refurbishments are founded on smart logistics, which is why we were contracted to install two bespoke passenger lifts at Medina House, Milton Keynes. We upgraded the existing infrastructure to a sophisticated duplex system, capable of handling high traffic across four floors with an eight-person capacity per car.

Our focus was on delivering a durable, energy-efficient solution that integrates with the building’s new look and feel. It’s a good example of how modern lift technology can play a key role in revitalising a Milton Keynes office space.

With over a decade of experience as a trusted lift installer across the UK, Tower Lifts is no stranger to Buckinghamshire. We understand the specific demands of city-centre projects like those in Milton Keynes and our reputation is built on delivering reliable, high-quality installations that meet the unique challenges of modern building refurbishments.

The Result – Enhancing the Medina House Experience

For the developers behind the Medina House project, the installation of the duplex lift system was an important component in future-proofing the building. A modern lift system is often the first thing a prospective tenant notices, so Tower Lifts’ delivery of a high-performance solution has helped to ensure that this Milton Keynes property stands out in a competitive commercial market.

Tower Lifts 8 Person Lift

Tower Lifts are proud to announce the commencement of another lift project for the designer-brand shoe and clothing store “Size?”.

This new project is a 3-stop, 8 person passenger lift that will be installed in their Carnaby street store in London. This is the same location where we recently installed their state-of-the-art dumb waiter.

This project will involve the removal of some old components of the previous lift including a decades-old hydraulic unit

We will be replacing it with a modern traction drive unit that will travel at twice the speed.

Speed is important for this store because of the volume of customers and stock they deal with on a day-to-day basis. The 8 person lift will be a fantastic addition to the store, allowing staff and visitors to very quickly move between levels.

The Fast Paced Retail Environment at “Size?”

Size? is an innovative retail clothing company that has undergone rapid growth in recent years. They stock designer-brand shoes, casual sportswear and various accessories. Their stores are a very stylish showcase for the trend-setting products they sell.

Size? stores are very busy retail environments with thousands of products on offer

Some of the challenges facing a busy multi-floor retail location like Size?’s Carnaby street store include:

• Managing the huge amount of merchandise on offer
• Fulfilling customer requests for products of different sizes
• Maintaining a clean design aesthetic for their stores by carefully selecting the stock on display
• Helping customers navigate the store’s multiple levels

Tower Lift’s dumbwaiter installation helped Size? move stock between floors rapidly

The efficient transfer of stock from store room to show room helped the outlet maintain a clean aesthetic. The new 8 person lift will help Size?’s staff and customers navigate the store very quickly. The new lift will also reduce the workload for staff and improve their efficiency.

The new 8 person lift that will be installed by Tower Lifts is also fully compliant with Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) lift requirements.
