Lift Shop at exclusive architectural Exhibition

DesignEx Melbourne 2009

Once again Lift Shop exhibited on the main aisle for Design Ex which is the premier exhibition in Australia for Architecture and Design. It was a pleasure to meet with again with some of our clients and referrers. Staff from our Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney offices were all there, and it was the usual fun to all be at the same place for a change.

This year we

  • Showed some new features and styling possibilities to our Italian custom lifts
  • Demonstrated the 87% energy savings benefits of our new technology Supermec Traction drive (compared to the older hydraulic systems)
  • Introduced a 1m x 1m Classic Freedom lift which is designed for affordability and incorporates classic minimalist white and glass styling.

We observed a big shift in clients requirements towards value, and so our entire wide range was well received. As it allows clients to carefully select what they want.

We also observed a smaller attendance and much smaller stand set ups of the other exhibitors which is of course a reflection of the difficulties they have in today’s economic environment.

Lift Shop is Competitive

People talked when we opened in Melbourne alongside an established residential lift company, they enjoyed our audacity and loved the benefits of competition.

We are not afraid to be compared, it's what we want. We are of course disappointed that they moved 10 months after our opening.  We are not 1st in Melbourne, we are new, and try hard.  Prices have fallen, quality has risen and we now define the service benchmarks of lifts for the homeowner and for easy living.

LIFT SHOP Melbourne Office Rescues Australia's Oldest Railway Station from Destruction

Geelong is proud of its old railway station and its wonderful history. Today, access to and from the platforms is difficult though for those of limited mobility.

The inclusion of retrofitted, wheelchair platform lifts which enable wheelchair users to be carried safely over the stairs is the quick fix. It has added benefits that no major construction work or building works are required. See what the Geelong Advertiser had to say.....
