Choosing to install a lift is a big decision for any building owner, developer, or facility manager. It’s not just about adding convenience—it’s about improving accessibility, ensuring safety, and adding value to your property. At Dove Lifts, we know how important this decision is, which is why we guide our clients through a clear, step-by-step journey from consultation to installation (and beyond).
Here’s what you can expect when you choose Dove Lifts as your trusted partner.
Step 1: Initial Consultation
The journey begins with a conversation. We take the time to understand your needs, your building, and your budget.
During this stage, we’ll ask key questions such as:
- What type of building is the lift for (residential, commercial, hospital, industrial)?
- How many floors does it cover?
- What is the expected passenger load or freight requirement?
- Are there any architectural or space constraints?
- Assess the available shaft space and dimensions.
- Identify any structural adjustments required.
- Evaluate access points for installation.
