Liftman UK Ltd Company Overview

Liftman UK Ltd is an independent. Family-run lift company with over 23 years of experience giving full lift services.

Based in the South West, with offices in Exeter and Truro, the business serves Cornwall, Devon, and Somerset, while also undertaking specialist fittings on a national level.

Their core service portfolio includes planned maintenance, 24-hour call-outs, repairs, refit, and new lift fittings.

The company works with a diverse client base ranging from health councils and housing trusts to international companies and small independent firms.

The company gives a wide variety of vertical transport services. This includes UK-manufactured platform lifts designed for both internal and external settings.

Their product range extends to passenger lifts for hotels, nursing homes, and offices. It uses both hydraulic and traction operation systems. For industrial and commercial needs, they supply goods lifts.

It spans from small "dumbwaiter" units to full-sized lifts with attendant controls.

One of their primary differentiators is their specialist design department, which uses Solidworks software to create bespoke, in-house units for projects where standard off-the-shelf equipment is unsuitable.

Liftman UK Ltd stresses technical know-how and honesty in their operations. It draws on over 30 years of industry knowledge.

Their approach focuses on giving a personal contact for each client and giving high-quality engineering rather than competing solely on price.

The company is structured to manage the complete lifecycle of a lift, from first bespoke engineering and design to long-term servicing and modernization of existing equipment.

Liftman UK Ltd is an independent. Family-run lift company with over two decades of experience giving full vertical transport services across the South West of England and beyond.

With offices in Exeter and Truro, Liftman UK Ltd serves clients across Cornwall, Devon, and Somerset, while also undertaking specialist fittings on a national scale.

Services offered

Whether working with NHS health councils, housing trusts, international corporations, or small independent firms. The company brings the same commitment to quality engineering and honest, personalised service to every project.

Drawing on more than 30 years of industry knowledge, Liftman UK Ltd has built a name as a trusted, technically capable partner for groups requiring steady lift services.

What to expect as a client

Unlike larger contractors who compete mainly on price, the team here prioritises long-term client links, assigning a dedicated personal contact to each client and focusing on giving high-quality engineering outcomes at every stage of a project.

This ethos, rooted in openness and know-how, sets the company apart in a sector where uptime and compliance are paramount.

The range of services and products offered by Liftman UK Ltd is wide enough to meet the needs of virtually any vertical transport need. Key offerings include:

• Planned maintenance programmes tailored to keep lifts running safely and smoothly, helping clients meet their legal duties and avoid costly breakdowns.
• 24-hour emergency call-outs and repairs, ensuring that when issues arise, a qualified engineer is available around the clock to restore service as quickly as possible.
• New lift fittings, including UK-manufactured platform lifts for both internal and external settings, passenger lifts for hotels, nursing homes, and offices, and goods lifts ranging from compact dumbwaiter units to full-sized attendant-controlled systems.
• Refit and upgrade work of existing lift equipment, extending working life and bringing older fittings up to current safety and performance standards.
• Bespoke design and engineering through an in-house specialist design department using Solidworks software, producing custom-built units where standard off-the-shelf services are unsuitable.

Safety, standards and paperwork

The bespoke design skill is one of the most distinctive aspects of what Liftman UK Ltd gives. Many lift companies rely entirely on makers' standard product ranges.

However, the specialist design department here gives clients access to truly tailored services. Using Solidworks CAD software, the team can engineer and make custom lift units in-house.

This makes the business an ideal choice for architects, builders, and building managers working on projects with unusual spatial constraints or specific day-to-day needs.

The company's passenger lift portfolio covers a range of working systems, including both hydraulic and traction-drive layouts. This makes it possible to specify the most appropriate tech for each building type and usage pattern.

Hotels, care homes, and multi-storey office buildings all have differing demands, and Liftman UK Ltd has the experience to tell, install, and maintain equipment suited to each setting.

For commercial and industrial clients, the goods lift range — from small service lifts to large-capacity units. Gives practical, durable services for moving stock, equipment, or materials between floors.
