Our 6, 8, 10, 13 person Lifts can be supplied in its own self supporting structure to be located within a building. No load bearing walls are required - just a firm base, solid floor and headroom support. Our structures can be installed into existing lift shafts. A structure supported lift is particularly useful where traditional masonry shafts cannot be supplied and is a solution in timber framed buildings.
 
Shaft/ Aperture Dimensions: Add 150mm to the standard shaft dimensions detailed under the standard Passenger /lifts page. Note these dimension need to be confirmed subject to lift model etc.
 
The advantage; reduction of building works required prior to installation, saving time and money with the additional benefit of ultimate flexibility in the location of the lift.

 

  • There is no need for inserts to be built by the builder, making it easier to build and saving cost.
  • load bearing walls do not need to be built, making it easier and cheaper to build.
  • Scaffolding is not needed, saving substantial cost.
  • The structure is assembled within the lift shaft.
  • Can be installed into existing lift wells with minimal builders work.
  • Simplifies building programme.
  • No lintels or separate pit access ladder required.
Notes:
 
1. The structure requires stabilising in the pit, all floor openings and headroom. (Loading details are available).
2. The structure will require a cladding enclosure by others if no lift shaft is provided.
3. Loadings and fixing details are available upon request.
