01 · IN BRIEF

Passenger lift for retail and hospitality in brief

The most important facts, all in one place.

Built for high visitor volumes

Robust components and a gearless motor, designed for intensive public use.

A calling card

Glass cabin or doors, stainless steel or wood: the lift complements your shop or showroom.

Accessible to everyone

Compliant with EN 81-70, providing space for wheelchairs, walkers, and strollers.

Vandal-resistant

Extra robust version according to EN 81-71, for public spaces.

Precise

Stops within ± 2 mm, ensuring no threshold for shopping trolleys or wheelchairs.

Safe during power outages

The lift travels to the nearest floor and the doors open automatically.

02 · CONSTRUCTION

A lift that draws visitors upwards

In a shop or showroom, the lift helps determine whether visitors explore upper floors. An open, bright lift with glass or stainless steel is inviting and matches the look of your business.

At the same time, the lift must withstand heavy use. We therefore opt for a robust, machine-room-less lift with a gearless motor, and a vandal-resistant version where necessary.

No structural shaft? A freestanding glass shaft in an atrium or void turns the lift into a centerpiece.
