City of Bath
In 2018 we were approached by The City of Bath to provide access to initially their Guildhall. This was closely followed by access to the Roman Baths and the Art gallery. This provision made Bath the first fully accessible world heritage site to wheelchair users. The provision of stair climbers in the Guildhall has allowed a safe access for the Mayor of Bath to safely leave his chambers in the event of lift failure or emergency.
Within the Roman Baths there have been several incidents of lift failure in the lower areas which would have limited the access to wheelchair users and less able. With the stair climbers in place the access was therefore not limited and the continuation of good access was in place.
We followed this work up by taking over the servicing and testing of their evacuation chairs as well as the training in all three facilities.
This has allowed The City of Bath to have their access and evacuation (Service/Maintenance and Training) under one umbrella.

What our clients say
Sean McQuaid
Stadium Operations Manager – Colchester Utd FC
“JobServe Community Stadium recently approached The Stair Climbing Company to service all the Stadium’s Evacuation Chairs and provide training for the staff of Colchester United Football Club. Chris and his team meticulously reviewed the current provision, serviced it, and provided recommendations to improve the operation of the equipment. Following this, they worked closely with us to come up with a mutually convenient date and time for staff training. On the day, Chris provided training for the staff with a high level of professionalism and followed this up with additional material to help with the future operation of the equipment. In summary, the Club were very happy with the service provided, and we would have no hesitation in using their services again.”
Richard Battley
HSE Manager – England Rugby
“At Twickenham Stadium we have committed to ensuring the venue is accessible to all. Whilst the design of the stadium brings its challenges, in particular the level two bars which had limited access via external stairs, we believe the recent procurement of the stair climber has provided sufficient and reasonable adjustments enabling wheelchair users quick and safe access. Not only does this improve our customer experience but is also available during our C&E events in the unlikely event of an emergency evacuation and is one of the many controls adopted within our ongoing inclusive access improvements. Certainly a worthwhile investment.”
