Worry-free lift replacement and removal from Stannah
Lift replacement & removal services
When the time comes to replace a lift, we can guide you through all the options available, including complete replacement to allow you to future-proof your building.
Lifts have a shorter lifespan than any building, typically 15-25 years. Therefore, it’s not unusual for a building to undergo an in-situ lift or service lift replacement, moving walkway replacement, or escalator replacement as part of its lifespan.
Early signs that a lift needs to be replaced include increased repair costs, breakdowns, older obsolete parts, and the lift’s age. The same is true when considering a replacement escalator or moving walkway. The lift replacement cost will typically factor in the cost of removal and new lift equipment and is a great way to increase building value, user satisfaction and improve efficiencies and running costs.
Replace old and worn out with modern, eco-efficient lift products
A full lift replacement gives you a modern, efficient lift that allows you to increase the value of a building, improve people flow and meet the latest accessibility standards; of course, a newer lift also means newer technology and, therefore, energy savings. The benefits of lift replacement include:
- Better performance
- Improved appearance
- Compliance with the latest standards and requirements
- Energy efficiency gains
- Potential increase in lift car size
A dumb waiter replacement can give your back-of-house staff a much-needed boost in increasing staff efficiency compared to an unreliable or broken lift and reduce lift running costs thanks to modern energy-efficient systems.
A lift replacement does not require the lift to be from the same manufacturer or the same type of product! So regardless of the existing lift, make or model, we can help.
We’ve undertaken hundreds of lift replacements across the UK for happy customers. So, whether a passenger lift, dumbwaiter replacement or goods lift replacement, you can relax knowing we’re here to advise, support and guide you throughout the process.

Are you ready for the digital switchover?
Many lifts feature an alarm device that enables passengers to communicate in an emergency, typically connecting to a rescue service via phone. Because of the digital switchover, lift owners must now manage the transition of their emergency alarms from analogue phone lines to an alternative digital option.
