Special elevators, as the name suggests, are different from traditional elevators, because they have peculiarities that make them unique and specific for certain conditions. The technology of this type of elevators is quite sophisticated and the materials chosen are researched and studied to adapt to unusual areas, such as ships or hospitals.
Types of special lifts
There are different types of special lifts. Among these we have the naval elevator, the explosion-proof elevator, the inclined elevator and the bed lift. It can be said, given the difference between all these types of elevators, that they are customized elevators, each with characteristics studied at the table, based on the installation context. Of course, personalization cannot take place without compliance with the legislation. In fact, the indications for the minimum dimensions of the lifts must be respected (especially when we talk about wheelchair lifts and lifts for the disabled). If we think of ATEX lifts, then, there is a specific regulation to ensure the construction of a resistant system, in environments with potentially explosive and dangerous atmospheres. For this reason it is essential to contact professionals in the sector, who possess the necessary certifications to proceed with the design and assembly of this type of system.

Special lifts and maintenance
For special lifts, the rule is always to maintain regularly. The frequency of the checks is established by the maintenance company, depending on the model of lift chosen. For the installation and maintenance of these systems, we advise you to rely on specialized technicians, coming from companies in possession of quality certificates, issued by higher bodies, which guarantee their safety, in full compliance with the European reference legislation.
