‘All change
at the Borough’
Building managers, Consultants, Architects, Builders and their clients need complete
faith in the abilities of their preferred lift service supplier.
Our previous track record supplying quality bespoke solutions
to a wide range of clients, highlighted our capabilities
to Tube Lines who were looking for a supplier that could
deliver a design solution to problems they were experiencing
at an existing site.
Our performance on that project secured our place on the
Tender invitation list for both Borough and Kennington
stations.
Accord are proud to have been the lift contractor of choice
on this pioneering project refurbishing PMVT at Borough
Station.
This was an extremely challenging assignment in terms
of design, involving the integration of new technology
with existing equipment.
Utilising our industry leading expertise, we were able
to ensure the station remained operational whilst the works
were being carried out, minimising disruption to passengers.
Accord Lift Services employs some of the most experienced
engineers in the country. People who care about their customers
and always provide a professional service and attention
to detail. Our approach and commitment to projects
such as the Borough ensures that we continue to remain
at the forefront of the lift industry.
