CBES lift engineering department removed and installed a lift shaft in a historic grade 1 listed building. This was a complicated and delicate project, as we had to ensure the old timbers finishers were retained. Also the new timbers had to be in keeping with the character of the building. Fire proofing was also carried out to comply with safety regulations. This project had to be extremely well planned, as it had to be completed successfully on a tight timescale.

This project involved the removal and reinstallment of a duplex hydraulic pair of lifts to enable Willmot Dixon to build a new plant room. The work for North Somerset council was undertaken in partnership with Bailey Elevators.
This project came with specific requirements that for all intents and purposes our workers had to be ‘invisible’, as it was vital for the client that we created no disturbance CBES were contracted to remove and strip out two lift shafts, so as to allowOTIS who we have worked with many times to install there new lifts.
We have worked many times in association with OTIS completing many successful projects to the highest standard. This project is another example of the good work we achieve together. In this project we assisted OTIS in the modernisation of the lift shaft as shown in the picture below.
For this project we initially had to remove a substandard 12-storey lift. We also had to design and fit new steel capping to take new lift. Thirdly, we had to fireproof throughout the setting entrance to comply with firemen’s lift capability requirements.
At the prestigious Hoopers department store in Torquay we had to remove the old lift from the centre of the store, and resolve Victoria building problems, fully tank and water proof the shaft. The hoardings were adapted to comply with the client’s preferred aesthetically pleasing design ideal to blend in with the shop’s existing characteristics.
The premise of the project was to build a new shaft for a goods lift. We removed the existing hydraulift to allow for a new DDA compliant OTIS generation 2 lift to be installed.
