Hello I'm a bit confused by this thread My understanding is that all lifts need to be insured and that they require regular servicing / maintenance in order to be used. I also thought that they require an adequate alarm system in case the lift fails and people are trapped. I didn't think you could operate a lift without these things in place. Northumbria AM have maintenance / service contracts with a lift company that includes call outs for breakdowns though I don't know what the callout might cost. The lift also has an intercom system that alerts the lift company directly. We also do not allow anyone to travel in the lift if they are the only person in the building.
