Temporary passenger lift placed for lift renovation Lambeth's rehabilitation centre
At a rehabilitation centre located in the London district of Lambeth, CrownAcre Lifts Ltd., a Kone subsidiary, recently completed full refurbishment of the existing lift. As a result, the lift was out of service for six weeks. To ensure the building remained fully accessible to patients, barrier-free, RECO Lift Solutions installed the temporary RECOpassenger lift.
Temporary passenger lift in the backyard
The best place to install the temporary RECO-lift was in the rehabilitation centre’s backyard Thanks to RECO lift’s modular, lightweight design, the individual modules could easily be hoisted over the building with a mobile crane. In no more than four hours, the lift was fully assembled.

Following assembly, the RECO lift was inspected by Bureau Veritas (BV) Since the delivery of temporary RECO passenger lifts for the London Olympic Games in 2012, BV has performed all inspections in England on behalf of RECO Lift Solutions.
