Design-phase coordination that puts safety first — and keeps you compliant.
Under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, every project involving construction must appoint a Principal Designer during the pre-construction phase. This role is responsible for planning, managing, and monitoring health and safety from day one — ensuring that risks are designed out, not patched up later.
At LiftX, we take on this role specifically for lift and vertical transport systems, bringing specialist insight to a safety-critical area that’s often overlooked.
Focused expertise. Fully compliant.
The CDM Principal Designer role carries legal duties — and lifting systems present specific risks that need specialist input. While your lead designer or architect may cover general coordination, lift systems deserve focused attention from professionals who understand them inside out.
That’s where we fit in. We act as CDM Principal Designer for lift works, refurbishments, and major modernisations — ensuring safety is prioritised throughout design, specification, and planning.
