Our Story

Lifting Australian families since 2014

Australia Lift was founded with a single mission: make residential lift technology accessible, safe, and beautiful for every Australian home.

Who We Are

More than lifts —

a family business

Australia Lift began in Melbourne in 2014 when founder David Hartley noticed that homeowners had to choose between impractical staircases and expensive, invasive lift installations. He set out to change that. Today, with over 2,500 lifts installed across Victoria, New South Wales, and Queensland, Australia Lift is Australia's most trusted residential lift company. We employ 80+ specialists — from engineers and designers to installation crews and customer support — all dedicated to one thing: elevating your home.

Safety First

Every lift we install exceeds Australian Standards AS 1735. Safety is never a feature — it is the foundation.

Transparent Pricing

No hidden costs. Every quote is itemised, fixed-price, and provided in writing before any work begins.

Local Expertise

Our technicians are Australian-trained and certified. We understand local building codes and council requirements.

Lifetime Support

We are with you for the life of your lift. From installation to annual servicing, our team is just a call away.
