Why choose Stannah?
Our priority is quite simply to meet the needs of our customers and support them as lift owners/users. Our aim is to provide customer service of the highest quality, quickly and efficiently.
Safety
Safety is of prime importance in everything we do at Stannah. All our Access products include every safety feature to ensure the security of those using the lift. These include easy to use constant pressure buttons, slip resistant floors and sensitive safety edges that will stop the lift automatically should an obstacle impede the lift.
Choice and Options
Both the Midilift and Stairiser are available with a range of platform sizes, offering flexibility to suit your needs and the amount of space you have available.
Midilift options include a partially or fully glazed shaft, exterior and interior colour finishes, choice of entrance configurations, shaft roof lighting, key operated controls, tactile push buttons, auto dialler communication system, fire rated doors, door handle options and ramps for pit-free installations.
Stairiser options include a choice of colour finishes, key operated controls, tactile push buttons, stanchion or wall-mounted operating panel and a fold-down seat for more ambulant pedestrian users.
Support and Advice
All our people are trained to ensure they are able to support and assist you throughout your project with all the technical advice you may need. Please do not hesitate to give us a call with any questions you may have.
Site Surveys
We carry out a site survey on virtually all Access installations prior to manufacture. This enables us to ensure that we are familiar with the unique circumstances of each site and that we are able to successfully manufacture and install the lift with the minimum of fuss.
Ease of Installation
Midilifts are supplied with their own structure supported enclosure, so can be installed quickly with the minimum of builders work. Our Stairiser, with straight or curved options, will fit most staircases with minor modifications.
Spares and Aftersales Service
Our nationwide after-sales service is fast, reliable, efficient and ready to assist day or night. We offer a 24-hour, 365 days a year call out capability from a network of 11 Service Branches. Our highly experienced engineers are kept up to date with the latest product developments through our own Training Centre.
