Lift entrance (step-free access)
The lift entrance is on Ashley Street, beside the stepped Main Entrance, further along the building from the corner with Alfred Street South. Look for a set of closed black double doors.
The lift is staff-operated and can only be unlocked by a BACKLIT team member.
Using the intercom
Use the intercom and Press 9, and then the bell for ground-floor. Tell the team you need lift access. A team member will meet you at the doors. The lift is staff-operated and serves every floor.
Using the lift internally
The lift provides step-free access to every floor: B, LG (street level), G, 1 and 2.
It can accommodate large powered wheelchairs and has a maximum weight capacity of 1,000 kg.
The lift doors must be opened and closed manually by a member of staff, so the lift cannot be used independently.
We are currently in the process of raising funds to install a lift that can be independently used by visitors.
Moving between floors and leaving
The lift provides step-free access to every floor: B, LG (street level), G, 1 and 2. Please ask a team member whenever you need to use it, including when leaving.
