Platform lifts for people with reduced mobility
Lift modernisation and replacement help extend the service life of the equipment, improve passenger comfort and bring the technical solution into line with the current requirements of the property. The scope of work is determined after the lift has been inspected and the shaft, condition of the main components, intensity of use and customer requirements have been assessed.
Technical advantages
Benefits of modernisation
A comprehensive upgrade makes it possible to replace outdated components, improve equipment performance and adapt the lift to modern operating conditions without unnecessary alterations to the building structure.
Key benefits include:
- increased structural rigidity;
- a coordinated equipment package for replacement works;
- the option of additional sound insulation;
- quiet operation in everyday use;
- renewal of technical and interior elements;
- adaptation of the solution to the existing shaft;
- more convenient subsequent operation and maintenance;
- the option of phased or comprehensive upgrading, depending on the condition of the equipment.
The final scope of work is determined from the technical inspection and review of the project documentation.
Technical advantages
Standard solutions that can be adapted to different architectural scenarios and existing shaft dimensions are used for modernisation. This simplifies coordination with the building structure and helps reduce the need for non-standard solutions.
Technical advantages may include:
- adapting the equipment to the actual shaft dimensions;
- upgrading components that affect ride quality;
- reducing noise and vibration;
- improving floor-levelling accuracy;
- renewing the doors, control system and other equipment;
- increasing the rigidity of individual structural elements;
- providing additional sound insulation where required;
- coordinating the new equipment with the building’s engineering services.
The final list of components and technical solutions depends on the condition of the lift, type of property, passenger traffic and objectives of the modernisation project.
Construction and materials
Cabin configuration
Modernisation can cover both the technical equipment and the interior of the lift car. Standard components, different stainless-steel textures and decorative solutions allow the car to be integrated into the architecture of residential, public, administrative or commercial buildings.
Lift car equipment may include:
- new wall panels;
- different stainless-steel textures;
- decorative inserts;
- a renewed ceiling;
- new lighting;
- durable flooring;
- handrails;
- mirrors;
- an upgraded control panel;
- information and indication elements;
- protective details for high-contact areas.
Materials are selected according to the intensity of use, maintenance requirements, lobby design and the overall architectural concept. The final specification is agreed after the technical condition of the car and the customer’s requirements have been assessed.

Technical design support
Euroformat specialists review project solutions and provide drawings in the required formats. Technical support helps coordinate the new equipment with the existing shaft, building structure and engineering services.
Support may include:
- reviewing initial data and technical documentation;
- inspecting the existing equipment;
- checking the shaft parameters;
- identifying the components to be replaced;
- selecting a standard solution with the required adaptations;
- coordinating the lift car and door design;
- preparing drawings in the required formats;
- providing advice on building and electrical works;
- reviewing technical solutions before installation begins.
To determine whether modernisation or complete replacement is the more appropriate option, the Euroformat team should be provided with the technical documentation, information on the condition of the equipment, shaft parameters and requirements for future operation. This will help establish a justified scope of work and prevent discrepancies during implementation.
