LONDON BUILD SHOW PREVIEW

NOT ALL LIFTS FIT A STANDARD SIZE , AS THESE EXPERTS KNOW

In certain circumstances a building may need to incorporate a lift that requires reduced headroom or pit depth , or nonstandard shaft sizes . Redditch-based iKONIC Lifts specialises in bespoke lifts which fit those circumstances . Being certified to Schedule 18 of the Lift Regulations , they are qualified to explore safe solutions outside the norm , with the correct approvals in place .
Some examples include a famous listed building in Cambridge , where iKONIC provided five lifts in total . Due to the age of the building , low headroom conditions applied . Planners would not allow roof
extensions for the headroom , so a full derogation process was necessary . iKONIC had to design and install the lifts to meet the full criteria safely .
In a second example , after working on a prestigious project in Saville Row , London , iKONIC were invited to join the design team and participated in developing both the design and specification of six lifts required in a listed building in Manchester . The iconic building has a large lightwell that the developers wished to utilise and
preserve . The client was looking for an impressive passenger lift , as well as additional lifts for goods circulation , along with disabled access solutions .
When building or renovating a new or existing building , with so many regulations , policies and standards to follow , the team at iKONIC are there to handle all your vertical transportation requirements with a complete turnkey solution . When it comes to meeting the Equality Act or the latest New London Plan regarding lifts , they have you covered .
