How often should I have a lift company provide a service?

This is a question which has as many answers as there are lifts. How often your lift needs to be serviced depends on many things, such as what type of lift you actually have, how long you have had it and how often it gets used. Clearly an older lift, which sees a lot of traffic every day is going to need to be serviced more often, in order to make sure it is safe and efficient, than a newer, less-used lift is. Ultimately, the real answer to this question will lay with the lift company whom you currently have contact with.

When you purchase a lift you should be given guidelines about how often it needs to be maintained and also how best to take care of it in order to avoid work needing to be done on it. If your lifts are no longer under warranty and you want to shop around for a better deal then you should talk through your needs and problems with them and they will be able to come up with a unique service plan which ensures your lifts are well maintained but also that there is minimal disruption to your business.
