All Dressed Up and Ready to Go!

All dressed up and ready to go!

We’re proud to unveil the first of many Royal Warrant Coat of Arms to make their way onto our fleet.

It is a detail that represents recognition, trust and the high standards we’re proud to uphold every day.

This is just the beginning, with more of our fleet set to receive their Royal Warrant Coat of Arms in the months ahead. So, keep your eyes peeled, you might just spot one of them out and about on the road!

Three Successful Lift Modernisations

Three successful lift modernisations completed within a state-of-the-art commercial building located in the heart of London

This project involved repainting the entrances, refurbishing the lift cars to complement the building’s sleek, modern aesthetic, and upgrading key machine components to enhance performance and reliability. The result is a smooth transition between floors.

 

Alyson Roper Spotlight

Alyson Roper, one of our longest serving office employees, was kind enough to share some insights into her role as Service Office Manager at Amalgamated Lifts

Alyson has been in the lift industry for an incredible 18 years and has been with Amalgamated Lifts since 2010, starting her journey in the business as Customer Service Adviser, progressing into the role of Live Response Coordinator, and now with a furthering promotion to her current role.

We asked Alyson what her typical day looks like and she explained “There is never a dull moment and there is always something to do!” She spends the majority of her time sorting parts and booking them in, arranging technician visits and supporting all Contract Supervisors in the office

We asked what skills have been most critical to the success in her role, and she credits her people skills and understanding of “helping meet clients’ needs and knowledge of parts to identify solutions”

When reflecting on the industry and changes, Alyson acknowledges she “has witnessed a noticeable growth in female representation, which is great to see” and whilst there has been an increase in customer expectations, she says it is reassuring to know that AL is continuously developing our in-house systems and technologies to accommodate both office and client demands

The best work advice she has received and lives by is “Act now and don’t leave it until tomorrow”

Outside of work, Alyson enjoys “Cooking, spending time with my family, and watching movies.” It goes without saying at all company events, Alyson’s baked goods are always appreciated and delicious!

Lambeth – Match My Project – Launch Event

We were honoured on the 18th March 2026 to be in attendance of the London Borough of Lambeth – Match My Project – Partnership Launch Event. It was a great opportunity to learn about the local charities in the area and a real way for us to give back to the community.

As part of our commitment to giving back, we were pleased to donate 100+ pairs of cargo trousers and shorts to various charities to further their noble works, whether it be in local gardening or helping young people enter work with the suitable attire.

We look forward to seeing how Match My Project will make a difference in the way we make social value contributions. Thank you to Barry Bugden and Be Lambeth for having us, we look forward to the next event.
