One of the most recognisable and popular types of lift, passenger lifts have applications in a huge number of buildings and sectors. From office buildings to industrial plants to shopping centres, residential buildings, leisure centres, hospitals, public buildings, hotels and hostels, schools, colleges and education facilities, passenger lifts improve accessibility, make life easier for building users and can help to provide a premium service!

At StarCraft, we are one of the nation’s specialists when it comes to car lifts in multi-storey and residential car parks. Car lifts offer developers the potential to improve the efficiency and capacity of car parks, often by a significant margin, so can be an excellent investment. The team at StarCraft specialise in the installation of car lifts in these applications.

Platform lifts are generally designed specifically with accessibility in mind. Platform lifts are ideal for wheelchair users or users with impaired mobility, and increase accessibility in your building. In some cases, platform lifts are a legal requirement where ramps or other accessibility features can’t be installed. However, improving accessibility is a priority for many companies today, and platform lifts provide an excellent solution. Platform lifts are particularly useful for use in areas with a mezzanine or “half floors”, where placing ramps isn’t always possible.

For organisations and projects looking to meet environmental targets, we are able to offer energy-saving lifts to help you reduce your carbon footprint and meet your business goals. Our energy-efficient lifts meet or exceed the BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) requirements, and we provide the highest energy efficiency on the UK market.

Service lifts are usually found in commercial or industrial applications, rather than residential buildings. Service lifts are designed to help move bulky and heavy goods such as trolleys, pallets and roll-cages. Service lifts are commonly found in settings such as care homes, hospitals, warehouses, distribution plants, hotels, commercial kitchens, and retail stores.

We often speak to clients who are struggling to install a standard lift, due to restrictions in their current building or having very specific requirements from their project. This may include flagship new builds, home lifts with difficult architecture or listed buildings, for example. At StarCraft, we are specialists in working on bespoke lift projects, and have the knowledge and understanding required to not just fit standard lift models, but also offer solutions in projects where this isn’t possible.

Dumbwaiter or automatic service lifts are ideal for transporting smaller goods than service lifts. Again, they’re usually found in commercial and industrial applications, and are particularly popular in commercial kitchens, restaurants and cafes. They’re also used commonly in large buildings such as hospitals and hotels in order to provide a quick and efficient service and make the lives of your staff considerably easier.

Our scenic lifts can be customised to meet the specific requirements of your facility to create a beautiful and seamless appearance to your lift interiors and exteriors. Our custom-designed scenic lift features include glazed-in panels with stainless steel frames, and fine floor finishes such as marble and granite, for the ultimate in luxury and aesthetics

lass lifts help to add a truly modern and high-end appearance to both passenger lifts, but also building projects as a whole. Glass lifts are an ideal choice as they blend more seamlessly with the interiors of your building, and also offer users a view out over the structure as the travel upwards, which can be a truly stunning experience.
