Install elevators in old buildings

(1) Single run or double run, the stairs basically determine the way of entering the house.

The types of existing multi-story stairs are different, and the location of installing elevators is also different.

1. After the elevator is installed on the single running stairs, the elevator can directly stop at the floor, which is what we often call the flat floor to enter the house.

2. After the double-run stairs are equipped with an elevator, the elevator can only reach the rest platform of the stairs. It takes eight steps or eight steps to get home. That is, what we call platform entry.

(2) Community roads and fire exits are important reasons for determining the location of the elevator!

In the process of installing elevators on existing multi-storey buildings, it is necessary to fully consider the impact of factors such as community roads, fire-fighting passages, fire-fighting distances between buildings, and building exits on the location of the elevators.

When the road width of the community is less than 3 meters, the fire passage is less than or equal to 4×4 meters, and the location of the installation of elevators should be as close to the original house as possible to meet the safety of vehicles, pedestrians and fire vehicles in the community.

According to building fire protection codes, the fire separation distance of general residential buildings shall not be less than 6 meters. If the distance from the original building is less than 6 meters, if the installed elevator is higher than other original buildings, the additional elevator shall be installed close to the side of the original building. The curtain wall should be made into a firewall.

(3) The foundation of the house is also one of the important factors in determining the location of the elevator.

Existing houses are installed with elevators, which are usually hung directly outside. The type and depth of the foundation of the house need to be considered. Because the elevator needs a foundation pit, the depth of the general foundation pit is about 1500 mm. The original house cannot be damaged by the construction of the elevator shaft. basis.
