Expertise is Always in the Room

Lifts and escalators are one of the most visible and highly utilised assets in your building. Your CAPEX and OPEX spending can be ruined or restored by how efficiently they are designed, managed and maintained. Everyone, from owners to tenants, measures the quality of your building based on lift performance.

Lerch Bates specialises in lift and escalator consulting at any point in your building’s life, from design and construction through asset management and modernisation.
