Hotel Lifts FAQs
What is a hotel lift?
A hotel lift is a self-contained, vertical transportation system that carries passengers from one level to another. It is a useful method for facilitating people’s quick and secure access to various floors within the same building or structure.
Which type of lift is used in hotels?
The two types of elevators that are usually used in hotel buildings are hydraulic elevators and electric MRL (machine-roomless) elevators.
Why is lift maintenance important in hotels?
Expert lift maintenance is a highly effective preventative measure that should be used on a frequent basis in order to detect any minor faults as soon as possible, before they become more serious and call for emergency lift repairs.
In order to keep your lifts safe, secure, and compliant with the law, as well as to ensure that your company won’t face any issues with the law or service calls because of lift malfunctions, it’s important for lift owners to perform preventative lift maintenance.
According to LOLER, all lifts used for work in commercial buildings must go through regular, in-depth inspections by a qualified person.
What are the costs?
If you want to know things such as how long does a maintenance session last, how much does lift maintenance cost, how many technicians will work on your lift and others, then you will first need to consider the size of the lift, the age of the technology used in your lift installation, the human flow (or goods flow) coming in and out of the elevators and more.
