About Us

Pickerings Lifts was founded in 1854 and has an unbroken history of independent ownership since that date. Our longevity gives us experience in the lift and escalator industry which is second to none, and as one of the founder members of the national association, LEIA, we pride ourselves with the vision of being:

‘The lift business everyone wants to work with’.

By being market led, service driven and people focused, we work as one team at every level in order to deliver outstanding customer service and quality products through exceptional and motivated people. We believe in mutually beneficial business relationships where the quality of service and being easy to do business with is measured by repeat orders from satisfied customers. Our flexible approach has earned us a reputation for consistent excellence through decades of dedicated support in the field. We strive to continually build that reputation, finding new ways to partner with customers to help them achieve their goals.

Our teams’ expertise and passionate personal commitment are considered to be our greatest assets. At Pickerings, our accountability and commitment doesn’t end with the sale. Local offices at locations throughout the country provide an extensive service network. Our service experts are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to provide support when customers need it most.

Our values and the concept of partnership are central to everything we do. We’re a UK company that’s intimately connected to our customers; working side by side with them as one team.

“Our customers can see firsthand the processes, standards and quality built into every step, from design, manufacturing and installation through to servicing and repair”.

Pickering’s products are innovatively designed from the outside in and driven by real customer insights. Our management teams are focused on understanding customers needs so they can continue to meet and exceed our customers’ expectations. In each market sector in which we operate our aim is to be number one measured by customer preference.

The wealth of knowledge acquired from over 150 years experience has enabled us to be a leading independent lift manufacturer. We achieve this by continually striving to add tangible customer value and exceed our customers’ expectations in all of our activities.
