Access & Lifting Services

About us
Founded in 1974, we have been privately owned by the same family since the business was formed. The business was founded by Colin, having completed an Apprenticeship with a local engineering company.

He started out producing small fabrications, eventually expanding across many sectors, including construction, foundry, warehousing, factories and manufacturing, leisure, and automotive.

In 1994, Colin handed the running of the business over to his son, Steve, who since then has steadily grown the business to where it is today.

The business has always been proudly based in Market Harborough, Leicestershire, where all of our manufacturing process is based.

It’s Steve’s hometown, and the business supports local clubs and charities, including Market Harborough Rugby Club, Harborough Against Bullying, Cransley Hospice, and Stoke Albany Parish Council.

We’re perfectly placed in the heart of the country, with fantastic road links within the M1/M6/A14 triangle. This makes us perfectly placed to serve the whole of the UK.
