Platform Lift & Home Lift
Installation Brent

Each Brent project is priced on its own rather than to a fixed rate. The travel height, the model you choose and the demands of a Victorian villa in Brondesbury or a Kingsbury semi all affect the figure, so a domestic through-floor lift usually costs less than a commercial installation. We survey the property first, then set out a written, no-obligation quotation at no charge.

For most Brent homes none is needed, because the lift sits entirely indoors as permitted development. With twenty-two conservation areas across the borough — from Mapesbury to Queens Park — and many listed buildings, external changes can sometimes require consent. We confirm where your property stands before any work begins and handle the conservation and building-regulations paperwork for you.

Three to five days is typical for a Brent installation. Because the lift arrives factory-built and sits in a shallow 150mm pit, the home avoids the weeks of shaft and masonry work a conventional lift would involve. We agree the timetable with you in advance, so each stage is planned and the completion date is clear from the very start.

Yes. Brent sets Victorian and Edwardian villas in Brondesbury and Mapesbury beside the long terraces of Willesden and the Metroland semis of Kingsbury, and OnLevel lifts suit them all. A shallow pit, no machine room and a slim footprint let a lift stand beside the stairs with light work, whether the house is a period villa or a 1930s semi.

They suit different needs. A stairlift is fine where one person manages a single flight and no wheelchair is involved. A platform lift is the better fit the moment a wheelchair or scooter must reach the upper floor, since it carries both the user and the aid. Many Brent households choose the lift to keep the home working for the long term.

Yes. A maintenance plan comes with every lift we install. Once a lift is fitted in Brent, we look after it from Wembley and Willesden out to Kingsbury and Kilburn, returning for scheduled safety checks and ready to attend if a repair is needed. Regular servicing keeps the lift reliable and compliant with the relevant standards.

Very little. The OnLevel lift asks only for a shallow 150mm pit and houses no separate machinery, so a corner of a room or the space beside the staircase is usually enough. That is how it fits the tall Victorian terraces of Willesden and Kilburn in Brent, where a traditional shafted lift simply could not be built.

Yes. Our engineers hold SafeContractor accreditation under CN8516, and every Brent lift is built to the EN 81-41 safety standard alongside Part M of the Building Regulations and BS 8300:2018. The work is carried out by our own trained teams rather than subcontractors, and each lift is fully tested, certified and signed off before handover.
