Case Study: An electrical lift refurbishment by Sheridan Lifts

We are commencing our second week of work on a 12-story building for one of our clients.

Oxford House, Liverpool

Work is now complete on the first lift of a compehensive, double lift lift modernisation at Oxford House in Liverpool. These works include new entrances created and existing entrances formed. This is a full turn-key package with our industry partners, International Lift Equipment and for the major builders works, PRNS Building Services Ltd. The left-hand lift (whilst looking into the Lift shaft from the landings) serves the even floors of the building whilst the right-hand lift serves the odd floors. Once fully complete, one of the refurbished lifts is a firefighter lift, which in turn will meet the requirements of EN81-72.

A new NHS bed lift, installed around a live A&E

Lift installation at Blackburn Unit 3

The Acute Medical Unit at Royal Blackburn Teaching Hospital is one of the North West’s busiest A&E departments. The existing bed lift was at the end of its life, and there was no version of this job where the unit closed.

We phased the installation around ward activity, worked nights where the corridor had to be clear by morning, and kept a single project manager on site throughout. Handover included the LOLER thorough examination and full documentation on day one of service.
