Apex Lifts expands following five years of unprecedented growth
After a period of sustained business growth, Apex Lifts is moving to new premises in Bexleyheath from 12th January, paving the way for exciting projects in the coming year.
Concluding a 16-year search, Apex Lifts’ administrative staff are relocating to new offices in the centre of Bexleyheath, a stone’s throw from central London. The company’s manufacturing facilities and Training Academy will remain at Apex House in Sidcup.
“I’ve been looking for the right property to house the Apex office for some time,” explains Managing Director, Warren Jenchner. “The aim was to find a larger space to accommodate our expanding team, with a great atmosphere to work in and visit.”
Named Art’s House, after Warren’s father and Apex founder Arthur Richard Thomas Jenchner, the three-storey, 12,800 sq. ft. building, constructed in 1999, will be the new home for the Apex Lifts Service, Accounts, Call, Repairs , Sales and Construction teams.
The new open plan office, with desk clusters for each department, boasts the latest facilities and technology, such as noise-cancelling work pods, laptop high tables allowing four people to project from their personal laptops onto larger screens, plus an IVONEX phone system with mobile plug-in capabilities. With a muted grey colour scheme complemented by blue accents, and lockers vinyl-wrapped in an A-Z of London, the offices are a stylish place to work.
The ground floor of the new building features a welcoming reception area with light-filled atrium and stylish furniture, complete with stunning new LED lighting, and seven spaces for stores, meetings and an employee rest and recreation area fully kitted out with a 50 inch TV, table and sofas; even a gym.
“2015 is set to be an exciting year for Apex Lifts, so it’s the perfect time to move to a bigger office space,” says Warren Jenchner. “And while the offices are separate from our manufacturing facilities, we’re still keen to show off what we do at Apex, so we’re installing our own-brand ‘show lift’, complete with glass doors and LCD screen displaying our twitter feed.”
The address of the new office is: Art’s House Banks Lane, Bexleyheath, Kent DA6 7BH. Contact phone numbers and email addresses are unchanged, and business will continue as usual during the move.
