Q. I have been asked the question from a church which has a lift for DDA purposes serving two floors. It has a lockable fire door at each floor which has to be opened by key to allow access to the lift car. This ‘external’ door is self closing and locking, so that if the lift fails there is no way of getting out of the lift car. Is this normal or meets current leglisation? Thanks.

A. Many Platform lifts have safety devices. All the lift Innovate Lifting Systems supply have a device so the passenger can be removed for the lift. The could be in the form of a key or a button. Also Innovate Lifting Systems offer an autodialler ( Telephone) within the platform lift so if any got stuck in the platform lift the alarm could be raised and the person removed from the platform lift quickly and safely.
