Testimonial:

To: Whom it may concern
From: Larry Miller
Subject: Manlift and Caged Manlift, Installation, and Maintenance

I have had the opportunity to know and work with Larry and Zach for many years. They are second to none in their knowledge of manlifts. Their concern with details and the customer satisfaction is outstanding. Their knowledge and experience on the National Manlift code committee, A90.1, speaks for itself.

What impressed me the most about them and their company is their genuine desire to give their customer what they ask for. If something was slightly out of tolerance and I asked them to adjust it, they would do it with no questions asked.

The other thing that impressed me was that they also would advise me, and MillerCoors, if we were overlooking something "per code." At that time, we would almost always do what they suggested.

I want to take this opportunity to recommend BarnesCo for installation, maintenance, testing, and inspections of manlifts and caged manlifts. You will find no one better.
