Latest products. The same great legacy.

Our passenger lifts have been around almost as long as we have. Back in the 1970s, the Maxilift name meant hydraulic lifts with groovy walls and since its launch in 2009, the Xtralift has quickly become Stannah’s most popular traction passenger lift, taking us higher and faster than ever before.

Time moves on. In 2020 we launch our latest passenger lift range under our well-known and much-loved names, with new technical features and improved car design.

Meridian Grand, London042Straightforward Maxilift lift range

It’s a simple formula. Every entry level Maxilift is built to the same, high standards – and complies with the same regulations – as all Stannah lifts. But where our other passenger lifts are completely customisable, Maxilift keeps things simple, focusing on our most popular finishes and sizes with options for 6, 8 or 13 passengers, covering up to 6 stops.

That means it’s easier to specify, with improved manufacturing making installation simpler. It’s the perfect match for low and medium-rise buildings where your project requires quick delivery and installation. It’s also our most cost-effective passenger traction lift – with no compromise on quality, reliability, or safety.

Maidstone Museum, External Midilift SL, February 2018Visitors to Maidstone Museum in Kent have every reason to cheer the arrival of an external Stannah Midilift SL platform lift in this Grade II* listed paragon of Elizabethan architecture, the former Chillington Manor.

Why? Because it brings access to three floors of cultural facilities for people of all mobilities – buggy-pushers and wheelchair-users included. That’s access to internationally important collections of human history and world cultures, and accompanying comfort essentials such as accessible toilets. 

Maidstone Museum, External Midilift SL, February 2018Sited in a small courtyard, the through-entry Midilft SL outdoor lift is supplied in a fully glazed structure for easy, flexible installation. Built to withstand the elements, its compact footprint is ideal for space-strapped locations. 

In this case, it also supports a policy of democratic access throughout an historic building functioning under the beady eye of Historic England. The considerable access arsenal also includes disabled parking, ramps, onsite wheelchair, and a warm welcome to guide dogs and hard-of-hearing groups.

Maidstone Museum, External Midilift SL, February 2018The 23 individual glass panels and panoramic, fully glazed doors at each level allow the lift to meld with its environment whilst simultaneously showcasing the period features to visitors as they travel a total distance of 3900mm.

Operation is easy via a backlit, push-button control panel, whilst the grab rail, roomy chequer-plate platform and emergency intercom deliver manoeuvrability and reassurance. To conserve energy the ceiling light is timer-operated. 

Lyn Palmer, Public Programming Manager at Maidstone Museum, comments:

“We strive to make accessing Maidstone Museum easier for visitors with a disability. In recent years we have implemented a number of changes to ensure convenience for all, with the external Stannah Midilift SL proving an invaluable addition in opening up the first-floor exhibitions.”

 

As with all Stannah lift products, the external Midilift SL access lift is covered by Stannah’s comprehensive lift service plan, which includes four service visits, with continued lift maintenance by the London and the South East (Dartford)branch of Stannah Lift Services, part of a nationwide network providing comprehensive lift servicing and support.
