VM Elevators Completes Bespoke Lift Installation for an East London Leaving Care Service
VM Elevators is proud to have completed a bespoke lift installation at a Leaving Care Service in Tower Hamlets, East London. This essential facility supports young people as they transition out of care and into independent living, offering personalised guidance through the council’s targeted youth services.
Appointed to enhance vertical access throughout the building, VM Elevators managed the full supply, installation, testing and commissioning of a new 400kg, 5-person passenger lift. The project demanded detailed planning around safeguarding requirements, long-term performance, and thoughtful design – ensuring the solution was as secure and reliable as it was visually welcoming.
The result is a fully operational, custom-built lift system that reflects both the function and identity of the space. Featuring a bespoke red interior, LED-lit handrail and virtual touchscreen lift attendant, the lift blends modern design with smart technology – creating a safe, engaging and supportive environment for all who use it.
Behind the visual appeal lies a high-performance system, engineered to withstand frequent public use while meeting all relevant safety and accessibility standards. This East London lift installation forms part of VM Elevators’ wider commitment to supporting community-first buildings across the capital.
Delivered on time and with minimal disruption to daily operations, this project reinforces our core values of transparency, quality, and care. Whether it’s a public building, council-led initiative, residential development or heritage site, VM Elevators approaches every project with the same priority: pairing technical excellence with a human-first mindset.
