Lift Shop Welcomes 2nd Italian Engineer to its team

In February 2010, Davide Del Tessandoro (centre) joined Lift Shops team as an additional Lift Installation and Maintenance Trainer.

Our first trainer, and Senior Italian Engineer, Mr Nilo Spinelli (right) migrated from Pisa in Italy, to Melbourne, Australia and joined in January 2008.

Nilo's presence in Australia has assisted and promoted the close relationships with our Italian manufacturers and exclusive partners in Italy.

Most importantly, Nilo has designed, developed and implemented our training program. Australia lacks formal lift school facilities and qualifications so we are required to "make" our own skilled tradesmen. We are proud of our training facilities and comprehensive system. Our commitment to education and developing skilled tradesman is both good for Australia and Lift Shop in that it ensures that we continue to have the skilled staff to promptly deliver our installation and long term service obligations.

We continually invest in ourselves, to be smarter and better- that's smart. These wonderful skilled Italian educators, help us do that – Thank you and Welcome.

Scott Giroux and Bernard Edwards were honoured to be at the BRW Fast 100 awards on behalf of Lift Shop to be recognized for a 4th consecutive year

Some of our clients go to extra-ordinary depths to get one of our lifts

The majority of the expense here is in the excavation rather than the lift itself. Lift Shop customers are amazing and wonderful people.

Energy Saving in Lifts

This article from elevatori 2009 July/August (A bit of green) discusses various opportunities for applying new technology to achieve energy savings in lifts including "the most glaring example is the replacement of the hydraulic lift with a low-energy consumption traction lift"

On time completion guarantee

"PUT OUR MONEY WHERE OUR MOUTH IS"

Lift Shop is the only residential lift specialist to have an on time completion guarantee or you get money back (conditions apply).

Due to our sophisticated on-line tracking system and clever technologies, we are able to closely monitor your lift progress. As a result we are not late, if we are you get money back. We back our promises with money, so we clearly know what we are doing. At Lift Shop, we put our money where our mouth is.

New Online Tracking System

Lift Shop is thrilled with the introduction of the custom built software TRIP (named for Tracking, Reporting, Informing and Planning).    Lift Shops TRIP is a sophisticated client and lift management web based information system. This integrated package is live through all our offices Australia wide and to our clients and supplier partners world wide.  TRIP contains all information about every single lift project.

Clients login through a secure connection and are able to view and download drawings, specifications, key account information, service details and other useful information - naturally this is live and accessible 24/7.

Lift Shops leading technologies apply to both the lift products and the lift delivery and maintenance management system.   As a modern company, we choose environmentally friendly, real time, clever electronic based tracking rather than the cumbersome paper based checklist systems that were popular in the 1990s (and arguably added more costs than benefits - modern quality systems are the way forward).

We are confident that we deliver on time.  As proof, Lift Shop is the only specialist residential lift company to have an on time completion guarantee, where we pay you money if we are late.  On time is not a marketing term at Lift Shop.   We don't pretend to deliver - we actually deliver. 

Lift Shop - Golf Day A Hit

I would like to thank all participants for their involvement and contributions.

We raised money for a good cause, gave back to the community and had a great time.

Bonnie Doon is a delightful, although a little difficult course - despite the challenges of extra small holes and unco-operative limbs, (both trees and arms) we did enjoy ourselves. I saw both sides of most fairways and even landed on a few, including two that I aimed for!

Thanks again for your involvement.

Urgent Solution required for Sydney's Circular Quay Sydney Ferries selects LIFT SHOP

In January 2006 an unfortunate boat accident occured when a ferry crashed into Wharf 2 at Australias busiest harbour-Circular Quay. Sydney Ferries were required to rebuild the wharf and include a salt water resistant lift to float on the Wharf.

This prestige job in the heart of Sydney between the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge with a short delivery timetable and high technical requirement, meant that Lift Shop was the favoured choice with its marine durable lift. (Shaft in glass and AIS 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel)

The Lift Shop team was selected due to its proven ability to promptly and reliably deliver.
The entire project was completed on budget and under time in 14 weeks.
