Common questions

More answers on our FAQ page.

Which commercial lift suits a small building?

For a small office, club or clinic, start with the Phoenix Commercial. It needs only a 100mm pit and carries up to 630kg over 7m of travel. The Orion goes a little further, with up to 8m of travel and centre-opening sliding doors, on a 150mm pit. Both are built at our Brisbane factory. If you only need to get over a few entry steps, the Discovery platform lift covers rises up to 2m on a 50mm pit.

How long does a commercial lift take to supply and install?

The Orion and Phoenix Commercial are from 10 weeks, supplied and installed. The Discovery's lead time depends on the site, so ask us. We can quote from your plans, and the people who quote your lift are the people who install it.

What standards do your commercial lifts meet?

The Orion and Phoenix Commercial are built to AS1735 and meet NCC and DDA requirements. The Discovery platform lift is built to AS1735.15 / EN 81-41 and meets NCC and DDA requirements.

Who services a commercial lift after it's installed?

We do. We recommend a service every 6 months for a commercial lift. Our own team looks after the lifts we install, with spare parts stocked in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and South Australia. We also service Swift, Barduva, Bruno, Vestner, Area Lifting and MPR equipment.

Programmes and pricing: commercial lift maintenance.

Can you quote from my plans?

Yes. At Aussie Lifts, we can provide an accurate quote directly from your building plans. Simply send us your architectural or design drawings, and our experienced team will review them to identify the most suitable lift model, size, and configuration for your project.

As part of our service, we also offer free engineering drawings that can be shared with your architect, builder, or engineer to help integrate the lift design seamlessly into your plans. These detailed drawings include shaft dimensions, pit and headroom requirements, and electrical specifications to ensure everything fits perfectly before construction begins.

One important detail we always discuss is your Finished Floor Level (FFL). This is the final height of your completed floor surface, including tiles, carpet, or timber. Accounting for FFL ensures your lift floor sits perfectly level with the surrounding floor, resulting in a smooth and professional installation.

Whether your project is residential, commercial, or accessibility-based, our team will guide you through every stage, from quoting and design to final installation, ensuring your lift fits flawlessly into your space.

Are you able to supply a custom-sized elevator?

Yes. At Aussie Lifts, we specialise in designing and manufacturing custom-sized lifts to meet your specific requirements. Because we build our Phoenix, Gemini and Orion lifts in our Brisbane factory, we have full control over design and production, so we can customise cabin sizes, door configurations and shaft dimensions to suit your space and accessibility needs.

Whether you are working with an existing building, a tight installation area, or specific architectural requirements, our in-house engineering team can design a lift solution that fits perfectly, without compromising on safety, performance, or style.

Customisation options include:

  • Tailored car sizes to maximise available space
  • Door widths and heights adjusted for accessibility
  • A wide range of finishes, flooring, and lighting choices
  • Compatibility with both residential and commercial applications

Every custom lift is built in compliance with the AS1735 Australian Standards, ensuring long-term safety and reliability.

By choosing an Aussie-built, custom-sized lift, you are investing in a locally supported product designed specifically for your property, not a one-size-fits-all import. Contact our team to discuss your project and we will create a lift solution tailored to your exact needs.

Do you install external lifts?

Yes. Aussie Lifts specialises in external lift installations, and our products are specifically designed and engineered to perform in Australia's tough outdoor conditions.

Our external lifts feature a modular aluminium shaft structure that is engineered and certified for cyclonic wind conditions up to C3, making them ideal for installations across all regions, including coastal and high-wind zones. The durable aluminium construction offers excellent corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term reliability and minimal maintenance.

Because our lifts are pre-constructed and modular, they can be craned into position and installed in as little as one day, dramatically reducing site disruption and construction time. This makes them a perfect choice for schools, commercial sites, modular buildings, and mining camps where speed, safety, and durability are essential.

Our Phoenix, Gemini and Orion lifts are designed and built in our Brisbane factory to AS1735, with the flexibility to customise cabin size, finishes and access points to suit your site layout.

If you are looking for a fast, weather-resistant, and fully compliant lift solution, Aussie Lifts' external modular systems are the proven choice for both residential and commercial applications.

Can we put a Service Agreement in place for our lift?

Yes. At Aussie Lifts, we offer Preventative Maintenance Agreements (PMAs) that provide ongoing peace of mind and cost savings for lift owners. Our PMAs are fixed-term service agreements designed to keep your lift operating safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with Australian Standards.

Customers who choose a PMA receive a 20% discount on standard servicing costs, plus priority scheduling and consistent maintenance from our qualified technicians who know your lift history. These agreements are ideal for both residential and commercial properties, ensuring your lift is serviced on time and any potential issues are addressed before they become costly repairs.

For regional clients, we often coordinate service runs that group nearby customers together. This allows us to reduce travel costs, making regular servicing more affordable without compromising quality or reliability.

A PMA ensures your lift remains in top condition, helps maintain compliance with warranty and safety requirements, and provides predictable maintenance costs for easier budgeting.

Contact our team today to discuss a Preventative Maintenance Agreement tailored to your lift type, usage, and location. It is the simplest and most cost-effective way to protect your investment.

Will my lift phone be compatible with NBN?

With the rollout of the NBN (National Broadband Network), many traditional landline services are being phased out and standard lift emergency phones may no longer work reliably, especially during a power outage. The NBN is not guaranteed to operate in a blackout, which means a lift phone connected to the old copper line may fail when it is needed most.

Under Australian law, all lift emergency phones must be safe to operate, meaning they must function at all times, including during power failures. To stay compliant and ensure passenger safety, lift owners are required to install a compliant communication solution before the NBN is connected in their area.

At Aussie Lifts, we offer an approved solution known as a Gateway Device. This device is installed inside your lift machine cabinet and operates via a SIM card and antenna, allowing the emergency phone to work independently of the NBN or landline.

Our team can supply and install this system to ensure your lift remains fully operational, compliant, and safe, even when the power or internet goes down. Contact us to discuss your lift phone upgrade options before your area switches to the NBN.

How often should I get my lift serviced?

To ensure your lift runs safely, smoothly, and efficiently, it is important to have it serviced regularly by a qualified technician. At Aussie Lifts, we recommend servicing every 12 months for residential lifts and every 6 months for commercial lifts, in line with Australian Standards and manufacturer requirements.

Regular lift maintenance helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, extends the life of your lift, and ensures all safety features such as emergency lowering systems, door locks, and communication devices are working correctly. For commercial properties, more frequent servicing is required due to higher usage and compliance obligations under workplace safety regulations.

Our fully licensed technicians perform comprehensive inspections and testing on every service, including mechanical, electrical, and safety systems. We also provide a detailed service report for your records.

If your lift shows signs of unusual noise, slow operation, or door issues between scheduled visits, contact us for a prompt inspection.

In summary:
Residential lifts: Service every 12 months
Commercial lifts: Service every 6 months
Always use a licensed lift service provider

Regular servicing keeps your lift safe, reliable, and compliant, protecting both your investment and your peace of mind.
