Rent a lift

Renting a lift is a smart solution when a building temporarily does not have a working lift. This may be necessary in situations such as a breakdown, renovation, or to temporarily improve accessibility. With a temporary rental lift, everyone can remain mobile easily and safely. For housing associations, homeowners’ associations (HOAs), healthcare institutions, festivals, retail locations and construction projects, renting a lift is a practical and affordable way to provide residents, visitors, patients, festival-goers and staff with access to all floors.

Renting a lift during renovations or breakdowns

During damage or maintenance, a lift can sometimes be out of service for an extended period. Renting a lift provides a fast and safe solution, ensuring that residents or patients are not left stranded. Especially in healthcare facilities, it is crucial to act quickly, as accessibility in these environments is essential. With a temporary lift, wheelchair users, the elderly and staff can easily reach the required floors. After water or fire damage, an emergency lift is often the most suitable solution.

Renting different types of lifts 

Every situation is different and does not require the same solution. That’s why multiple types of lifts are available for rent, tailored to the location and the users.

  • Platform lifts: suitable for height differences of up to 3 metres and ideal for wheelchair users or residents with temporary reduced mobility.
  • Passenger lifts: suitable for use in healthcare facilities, apartment buildings and temporary housing solutions.

  • Stairlifts: perfect for maintaining accessibility in homes and apartments.

All of these systems are highly flexible, which means an appropriate lift can almost always be installed without major structural alterations.

Renting a lift for housing associations and homeowners’ associations (HOAs)

Housing associations and homeowners’ associations (HOAs) regularly deal with maintenance or renovation projects, and during these periods renting a lift is essential to ensure accessibility. This is not only a practical solution but, starting in 2025 within the European Economic Area (EEA), even a legal requirement. Accessibility for residents with disabilities or reduced mobility will be recognised as a legal right under the European Accessibility Act (EEA 2025).

This prevents complaints and contributes to the quality of living and safety within an apartment complex. Many residents rely on a lift to access their homes, which means installing a temporary lift is not a luxury but an investment in comfort, safety and compliance with legislation. A major advantage is that a temporary lift can often be installed quickly and used immediately, keeping disruption during construction work to a minimum.

Renting a lift in the construction or rail sector

In the construction and rail sectors, renting a lift is also frequently necessary. Think of stations undergoing renovation, temporary platforms or construction sites with multiple floors. In these situations, renting a lift offers a practical and safe solution for transporting people and materials. It also helps to meet current safety and accessibility requirements.

Temporary lifts for healthcare facilities

In healthcare, a functioning lift is essential. When a permanent lift is out of service, a quick alternative is required. Renting a lift ensures that residents, patients and healthcare staff continue to have guaranteed access to all floors. Because a temporary lift can usually be installed quickly, the impact on residents and staff remains limited.
