Once a sleepy backwater, after 1849 Wokingham grew exponentially due to the railway line connecting it to the larger commercial centre of Reading and the London metropolis. A local MP named John Walter III, who owned the London Times used his own funds to build St. Paul’s Church on Reading Road. Once complete, he also built other well-known landmarks in the vicinity such as St. Paul’s Church of England School and later, in 1893, St. Paul’s Clock House and Parish Rooms.
It is St. Paul’s Clock House which is the new home of the Stiltz Wokingham team. The offices boast a brand new, purpose-built showroom where customers can visit to experience using a Stiltz Home Lift for themselves. The building also houses a new training facility for sales, technical, installation and product training.
Currently, all training takes place in the West Midlands Head Office. To help with logistics and potential issues with capacity, Stiltz felt there was a value in providing an additional training facility located in the south.
Lachlan Faulkner, the company’s founding Director who is based in the Wokingham office explains “We are keen to have somewhere customers can come and experience our products. It’s important when investing in a home lift, to be able to touch and feel it and see how it works. It can be difficult to envisage how the lift actually goes through the floor, and this is a perfect opportunity for visitors to see a Stiltz in action and to ‘test drive’ it.
The new showroom will have latest models of the Stiltz Duo+ Home Lift and Trio+ Home Lift available for customers to try as well as models demonstrating two unique features only available from Stiltz; the ThruCar Home Lift and the Void Installation. A ThruCar enables users to enter and exit through opposite sides of the lift – perfect for wheelchair users. The void installation allows the lift to be positioned within the turn of a staircase which is only possible due to the unique freestanding nature of a Stiltz Home Lift.

Easy to arrange lots of information, No problems with fitting, payment taken in stages, last payment when job was completed. Everyone was friendly from start to finish.
My experience with Stiltz Homelifts. Just over a month ago, I had my Stiltz lift installed and I am so pleased with it. The workmen that came and fitted it were very professional and knew what they were doing. They were so professional I would not hesitate to recommend Stiltz lifts to anybody.
Great looking product, knowledgeable sales people, fitters work clean quickly and polite. Definitely recommend.
Great stylist lift, had for six months without a hitch. Installed by company staff not subcontractors. Cannot fault the lift, buying experience, installation, service. Good company ethos and made in UK.
From the very beginning with the initial construction to the finished product. I have never seen such polite men with an equal work ethic. They cleaned as they went each day. The pets were never in harm. The finished product is awesome. Couldn’t be more pleased
Excellent from beginning to end – and beyond.
Everybody we dealt with at Stiltz was very helpful and efficient, from the initial meeting with Nick Sale, the sales rep, thorough technical inspection, the builders, installers, plumber, electrician, and excellent follow up service and attention. My husband’s life is transformed and mine is much easier. Thank you Stiltz.
Elegant lift, promptly installed by careful and tidy fitters who removed their rubbish the following day. A fair price and an envied addition to our home.
I have been astounded and gratified by the levels of service we have received from every member of the Stiltz teams we have dealt with. A superb lift with exceptional service!
An excellent company from the first contact to the completed project. All personnel were friendly and very polite but stayed extremely professional throughout. Having been in the construction industry for over 40 years I was aware the preparation work was carried out to a high standard by the best of trades people. The lift itself can not be faulted both the operation and aesthetics.
The service was better than 1st class. It was excellent in every way. We could not be more pleased with everything Stiltz applied it’s self to in any way. We would award 6 stars at the very least.
