Platform Lifts in Bognor Regis
OnLevel — the UK's fastest,
lowest-disruption lift solution
Bognor Regis is a seaside town on the West Sussex coast in the Arun district, the resort founded by Sir Richard Hotham in the 1780s and given its Regis title after King George V convalesced nearby. Its pier, the Regency parkland of Hotham Park and the long Esplanade draw visitors, and Butlin's has stood at the eastern end since 1960. Edwardian terraces, seafront flats and inter-war bungalows fill the town, and in homes across them the stairs can become a daily obstacle.
We install home lifts, commercial platform lifts, wheelchair lifts and through-floor lifts across Bognor Regis and the surrounding area — including Aldwick, Felpham, Middleton-on-Sea, Pagham and Barnham. Every installation is completed by our own SafeContractor accredited engineers (CN8516), usually within three to five days.
Residential & Commercial
Platform lift solutions for every building in Bognor Regis
Residential
Home Lift Installation
Bognor Regis housing runs from the Georgian and Regency houses near Hotham Park and the Steyne to the Edwardian terraces of the seafront and Marine Park Gardens and the inter-war bungalows of Aldwick and Felpham. Few were ever built with a lift in mind. As mobility changes, the staircase between the floors can become the hardest part of the day at home. A home lift from OnLevel means you can keep your Bognor Regis home rather than move away. The Regency houses near Hotham Park were never built around a shaft, yet our residential lift needs only a shallow 150mm pit and no machine room. It fits into a corner or beside the staircase, so a seafront Edwardian terrace or an Aldwick bungalow gains step-free travel between floors with little structural work.

Commercial Platform Lift
Shops, offices and venues across Bognor Regis — from the London Road and High Street to the pier, the Picturedrome cinema, the Birdman seafront event and the Butlin's resort — carry duties under the Equality Act 2010 to provide reasonable access for disabled people. A commercial OnLevel platform lift is often the least disruptive way to meet them. We work with the shops of London Road and the High Street, the hotels and amusements along the Esplanade, the Butlin's resort and the businesses on the Bognor Regis trading estates, and the GP surgeries, care homes and churches across the town. Tell us about your premises and how visitors move through them, and we will arrange a survey and a written, no-obligation quotation to match. Our lifts comply with Part M of the Building Regulations, BS 6440:2023 and BS 8300:2018.
Commercial platform lifts in West SussexThrough Floor
Through Floor Home Lifts
A through-floor lift rises straight between two storeys through a small opening in the ceiling, with no outdoor shaft, no deep digging and no machine room to house. That makes it a discreet answer for Bognor Regis's older housing, where the Regency houses near Hotham Park and the seafront terraces leave little room for anything larger. Most through-floor installations take three to five days, even in the compact rooms of a Bognor Regis bungalow or terrace. The factory-built lift is set into a prepared opening and the surround finished to match your interior, so the rest of the home stays in use while our engineers work.

Wheelchair & DDA Access
Wheelchair users across Bognor Regis and the surrounding area — from Aldwick and Felpham to Middleton-on-Sea, Pagham and Barnham — can regain independent movement between floors at home, or step-free entry to commercial premises, with a wheelchair platform lift from OnLevel. We supply vertical platform lifts for full storey-height travel and step lifts for raised entrances. All of our wheelchair lifts are DDA compliant and suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

At home in any space
Built for Bognor Regis's most
demanding buildings
From heritage conversions and listed properties to modern new builds, the OnLevel lift slots in where traditional lifts cannot go. The 150mm pit depth, self-supporting structure and bolt-together installation mean it can be retrofitted into existing buildings without major structural work — so you keep the character of the space and still deliver compliant, dignified access.
Whether the setting is a converted warehouse, a period townhouse, or a brand-new commercial fit-out, the lift becomes part of the architecture — not a compromise added after the fact.

FAQs
Platform lift questions for Bognor Regis
How much does a platform lift cost in Bognor Regis?
We quote each Bognor Regis job to the property, not a fixed rate. The travel height, the model chosen and the home — a Regency house near Hotham Park differs from an Aldwick bungalow — all shape the figure, so a domestic through-floor lift usually costs less than a commercial scheme. After a survey, the written quotation is free and carries no obligation.
Do I need planning permission for a home lift in Bognor Regis?
For most Bognor Regis homes none is needed, because the lift sits entirely indoors as permitted development. The seafront and Hotham Park conservation areas and the town's listed buildings are the exceptions, where external changes can require consent. We confirm where your property stands before any work begins and handle the conservation and building-regulations paperwork for you.
How long does it take to install a platform lift in Bognor Regis?
Three to five days is typical for a Bognor Regis 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.
Can a platform lift be fitted in an older Bognor Regis property?
Yes. Bognor Regis sets the Regency houses near Hotham Park beside Edwardian seafront terraces and the inter-war bungalows of Aldwick, 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 property or a recent build.
Is a platform lift better than a stairlift for a Bognor Regis home?
Ask whether a wheelchair has to go upstairs. If not, a stairlift can serve one seated person on a single flight. If it does, a platform lift is the answer, carrying the wheelchair or scooter up with the user. For a Bognor Regis home being future-proofed, that is what makes the lift the better long-term fit.
Do you service platform lifts in the Bognor Regis area?
Yes. A maintenance plan is part of every lift we fit. Once your Bognor Regis lift is in, we keep it serviced across the town and out to Aldwick, Felpham and Pagham, calling back for routine checks and coming out promptly if a repair is needed. Regular upkeep keeps it reliable and compliant.
How much space does a platform lift need in a Bognor Regis home?
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 seafront terraces and inter-war bungalows of Bognor Regis, where a traditional shafted lift simply could not be built.
Are your Bognor Regis platform lift engineers accredited?
Yes. Our engineers hold SafeContractor accreditation under CN8516, and every Bognor Regis 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.
