New homes and major renovations
Plan the lift while the project can still adapt
Resolve the lift system, shaft and construction interfaces before key structural and interior decisions are locked in.
The Prime approach
Make the lift part of the home from the beginning
Early lift input helps the homeowner, architect and builder allow for the right footprint, shaft, pit, headroom, door openings, power, access and installation sequence.
Prime works directly with the project team to turn the lift from a late inclusion into a coordinated part of the design and construction programme.

A suitable system and configuration are identified before the shaft is finalised.
- 03
Coordinate the build
Technical requirements are shared with the architect, builder and relevant trades.
- 04
Install and hand over
Prime coordinates delivery, installation, testing, commissioning and operating guidance.
Common questions
What homeowners and project teams ask first
When should we involve Prime?
Ideally during concept design or before the shaft and structural details are finalised.
Can Prime review architectural plans?
Yes. Early drawings are often enough to identify spatial and coordination issues before detailed documentation.
Does Prime work directly with builders and architects?
Yes. Prime provides the relevant lift requirements and coordinates the agreed interfaces with the project team.
Who completes the shaft and surrounding building work?
That depends on the selected system and project structure. Prime defines the lift requirements and coordinates with the builder responsible for associated works.
