Roys Rise designs, manufactures and installs round or glass elevator shafts that are tailored to function perfectly with your custom elevator.
Perhaps you are considering a custom elevator for your home or building project, yet, are concerned that the elevator shaft construction will be an issue in housing the custom lift you have in mind, leaving you uncertain about moving forward with the idea. No need to worry, there are a variety of custom lifts that are specifically designed to be showcased in a beautifully hand-crafted lift shaft. Depending on the type of lift equipment, a glass elevator, whether squared glass or curved glass, would be the ideal candidate for a custom glass shaft. However, in the photo shown below, the design of this glass elevator, with a slight curve on the back wall does not have a glass shaft enclosure. In lieu of designing a complete glass shaft, a stainless-steel structure was created to attach the rails and each landing has glass hall doors that are built with a stainless-steel frame. A glass enclosure on the bottom floor around the elevator pit for safety concerns.
The elevator shaft plays an important role in the attraction and prominence of the interior design of a residence or building. Often, the designer will coordinate with Roys Rise to include specific elements into the design of the shaft that are unique and require modification for the elevator to meet code and function properly. For a general contractor, the construction and installation of the elevator shaft for a custom designed lift is a very sensitive process that requires a solid understanding of the intricate parts of a complex design, setting it apart from a standard elevator. For this reason, a general contractor may encounter difficulties in the construction of a custom shaft such as a round glass elevator shaft. The advantage of Roys Rise being a custom elevator manufacturing company, is the capability of producing complete elevator and its shaft as well. In some cases, if requested by the customer, we can provide stairs around the elevator. To a large extent, this allows architects and interior designers to implement their ideas without limiting themselves due to the challenges they may assume may arise with the construction of a sophisticated shaft. Many elevator companies, small and large, refuse to build the custom elevator shaft because of insufficient knowledge and facilities. Thanks to our high-end manufacturing capabilities and the presence of professional designers and engineers, with the use of 3D renderings, there is no design that we cannot make and install in your project.
Consider an existing antique building or a new construction project that needs a birdcage elevator with a wrought-iron shaft. Sadly, many elevator companies that are not equipped to manufacture custom lifts prefer a competitive standard elevator allowing them to get involved in the project. They will try to discourage the designers by mentioning the high costs of such projects, which is not true. Unfortunately, many architects abandon the idea of including an authentic classic elevator fit to their comprehensive vintage design, and instead, they may decide to hide a standard elevator in a corner of such an elegant building, leaving out one of the most important features that will add value to their building.
Roys Rise elevator manufacturing company will help you design dream elevators with all of the related elements including an elevator shaft with any sophisticated design by providing elevators that fit the overall building design, whether modern or classic.
