can anybody comment on the average lifetime of the "cars" in a lift?
in a 6 storey block how often would the lift cars have to be changed?
the car is the bit you stand in by the way…
i've been told they have to be changed now and again at a cost of about $70K each
Hello Brownie,
Have you tried contacting 'Otis' or other lift companies? Just an idea, how long have the lifts been installed? I would contact the starta management of the complex, I am sure they will have some info for you. I know a refit will cost you a lot, not from personal experience but by chatting with Otis when they refit where I work. If there is a lift there or multi lifts I steer clear
hello brownie74
I live in a strata complex of 40 units and 1 lift. the complex is 2 years old, everyone pays into the sinking fund so when the time comes to replace costly items like the lift car, their should be sufficent funds to replace it, we budget to replace it every 10 years
Why would you want to replace the car? They are not a disposable item.

i was told by the strata manager,in his opinion the cars were coming to the end of their natural life and would need to be replaced in the next couple of years
all irrelevant now – someone put in a higher offer and got the unit
