What is meant by a temporary passenger lift?
A temporary passenger lift is a fully enclosed lift car that is specifically designed for temporary deployment and public use. This means the interior is designed to meet the standards of public passenger lifts. Temporary passenger lifts are easily assembled and usually require little to no building adaptions.
The main features of temporary passenger lifts:
- Fully enclosed lift car
- Suitable to transport people
- Step free accessible
- User friendly controls
- Interior design according to public lift standards
- Designed for temporary deployment
- Emergency braking and lowering systems
- Available both as external lifts and indoor lifts
How does a temporary passenger lift work?
Temporary passenger lifts are operated just like any other passenger lift. The controls in the lift are located at waist level and doors open and close automatically. When the lift is called at multiple floors, the controls will choose the most efficient path. This allows passengers to reach their destination in a fairly short period of time.
What are the different types of temporary passenger lifts?
Temporary passenger lifts are mainly divided into three groups:
- Temporary exterior lifts
- Temporary indoor lifts
- Shaftless lightweight lifts
However, passenger lifts can also be divided by type of lift mechanism:
- Traction motor lifts
- Rack and pinion lifts
- Hydraulic lifts
Emergency lift breakdown? Temporary passenger lift hire saves the day
Just like any machine, every permanent lift will suffer malfunctions and will be out of order from time to time due to lift maintenance. This restricts accessibility for lift users who are partially or fully dependent on the lift.
Disabled residents become confined in their homes, meal and care services become restricted and elderly people might be unable to take the underground to visit their relatives. As you can imagine, as long as there is no alternative, the outage will lead to a lot of frustration.
This is why it’s always recommended to install a temporary passenger lift when the lift is temporarily out of order, especially in housing and public transport. By deploying a temporary passenger lift, you can ensure access to your location for anyone, anywhere and anytime.
