About Canterbury Lifts
At Canterbury Lifts, our team of dedicated engineers and office staff set out to create a different kind of lift company — one built on time, pride, and honesty in every job. Specialising in platform lift installation, lift maintenance, and lift repairs, we bring expertise from domestic, commercial, and high-end establishments, ensuring exceptional service and competitive pricing across Kent.
With decades of combined experience in the lift industry, we’ve earned a strong reputation across Kent and the South East for finding solutions where others cannot. Many of our customers describe us as their go-to lift engineers and recommend us as a trusted platform lift specialist in the region.
We have built strong relationships with local hydraulic, motor, electrical, and manufacturing companies, enabling us to source parts and solve issues that other lift companies might declare impossible. Our approach is straightforward — we offer no-contract agreements, service lifts for as long as you wish, and only recommend work that is truly necessary.
When you choose Canterbury Lifts, you’re choosing a company that aims to set the standard for lift engineering in Kent — through consistent service, innovation, and long-term customer trust. Learn more about our platform lift services or contact us for a consultation.


Our Promise to You:
-
We will always be honest and engineer-led, with no salesmen or hidden agendas.
-
We will strive to be the best and build an individual relationship with you.
-
Whenever possible, we will assign the same engineers to better understand your individual lifts.
-
In the event of a breakdown, our engineers will be personally committed to repairing your lift as soon as possible, often providing free assistance over the phone.
-
We will never tie our customers into 'service contracts'. Our customers are free to leave at any time - We believe trapping customers in long contacts works only to the benefit of the lift company and not the customer.
We are proud to be different, to aim higher, and to be a small, independent, family-run business that is customer-focused. Our goal is to enjoy what we do and leave every customer happy.
