Commercial Elevators
Commercial elevators are distinguished by their heavier
loading capacity and bigger car size when compared to residential elevators. They serve to transport a large number of people,
including wheelchair users, as well as heavy goods between the floors of a building. Installed in offices, hospitals, and other
public buildings, these elevators are designed to meet the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act and latest
elevator codes. Building codes as prescribed by American with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) also have to be
followed when setting up a commercial elevator to ensure that commercial buildings are easily accessible to and usable by
individuals with disabilities.
The main functions and safety features commercial elevators come with are:
- Automatic controls - Automated operation permits easy operation and a smooth ride.
- Door restrictions - Electro-mechanical interlocks to prevent elevator movement if the doors are open and also to prevent hallway doors from opening if the car is not at a landing.
- Emergency battery lowering unit - This ensures automatic power backup for a hydraulically operated elevator so that it can arrive safely at the landing and allow the users to exit.
- Emergency lighting, alarm and stop button: All these emergency devices work during a power outage.
