Project Overview
When Krabby’s, a new seafood restaurant at The Barracks in Petrie Terrace, was preparing to open its doors, it faced a common challenge in heritage-style hospitality settings, ensuring accessible entry for all patrons. An older lift, installed by a different supplier, had been inoperable for approximately two years, leaving the restaurant deck inaccessible to customers with limited mobility.
The Solution
Axis Lifts was engaged to remove the existing faulty lift and install a new MPR one-metre vertical platform lift, designed to provide smooth and reliable access from the ground level to the restaurant’s entry deck. The lift was installed externally and offered a straightforward, no-frills solution that met compliance requirements and suited the tight installation timeline.
Installation Process
Despite needing to remove the previous lift and complete minor site works, Axis Lifts completed the installation in just two days, delivering on the deadline set by property management group JLL.
Key Benefits
- Restored Accessibility: The lift ensures full disabled access to Krabby’s entry deck, promoting inclusivity.
- Fast Turnaround: Completed within 48 hours, allowing the restaurant to open on schedule.
- Minimal Disruption: Straightforward replacement with no customisations required.
