The use of the panoramic lift is always widespread, not only in public and commercial contexts, but also in private residences.

With the term “panoramic elevator” we refer to an elevator, which can also be tilted, intended for the use of people. The cabin of a panoramic elevator has glass walls, so that those inside can see their surroundings.

A suggestive option, which ensures added value for the structure in which it is inserted.

Maspero has carried out many projects for panoramic lifts in different contexts, from the archaeological center (for example the Colosseum in Rome and the Acropolis in Athens) to the station, from a luxury residence to the metro.

All these places have had the contribution of Maspero to adapt and insert a panoramic lift, ensuring functionality and aesthetic performance.

Some of the panoramic lift projects carried out by Maspero

Panoramic elevators offer not only an external view, but also greater light. This is certainly a great advantage for those who suffer from the presence in closed and poorly lit places.

An example of a panoramic elevator made by Maspero, is the one located in Piazza Gae Aulenti in Milan

The elevator made by Maspero for this important city square, is a model of both aesthetic and functional efficiency, which has helped to give the city an even more modern vision, 

It uses piston technology, and has a speed of 0.63 meters per second. 

Another project, this time in the private sector, is the creation of  a lifting plant for a villa in France, located in the south-east of the country.

In this case the elevator, always hydraulic, is retractable, or there is a trapdoor on the roof covered with synthetic grass, which makes the elevator camouflaged in the surrounding landscape. 

The floor has been customized according to customer requests. The solutions offered by Maspero in fact, not only with regard to panoramic lifts, can be customized in materials and functionality.

Our company has also created a panoramic elevator to the Acropolis of Athens, one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world. 

A work that also allows those with mobility problems to access the area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The panoramic elevator we are talking about is inclined, and allows you to connect Peripatos (ancient road located at the base of the Acropolis) with the temple of the Erechtheion, located in a much higher position.

This system has also been designed for the possible transport of wheelchairs and companions, and if an emergency occurs, the structure also provides for the transport of a stretcher with operator. 

It is one of the most beautiful and characteristic Maspero productions, because it interfaces with a territory of immeasurable historical and artistic value.

One of our most ambitious projects, which has confirmed us as a leading company in the field of panoramic lifts.

Quality, maintenance and convenience

The future will see the panoramic elevator increasingly assert itself.

By now this type of lifts can be found in many public places (from shopping malls to hotels) and also in private homes.

They can be located both inside and outside buildings, therefore they must guarantee resistance and safety even against atmospheric agents and seismic activities.

A panoramic lift can be inserted almost anywhere, thanks to the customizations that can be made, for example on the width of the opening. 

Each type of finish can be chosen, as well as the type of glass to be used and the technique that allows the movement (hydraulic or electric); every single aspect will be evaluated with care and attention by Maspero’s professionals, ensuring at the same time quality and convenience, not only in the design and installation phase, but also in the subsequent maintenance phase.

If you want to have a panoramic lift, contact Maspero to receive all the preliminary information based on the project you have in mind, and to organize our presence on site.

In a short time, your panoramic lift can become a reality of great style and maximum efficiency.
