Metro's Additional Options and
Accessories |
| Base Platform with Ramp
or Stairs |
The standard size
base platform
is typically 8' x 8' with a 30' ramp connecting to it. Metro can
sell or lease any size base platform with a customized ramp or stairs.
A shorter ramp or stairs is sometimes necessary when spacing is tight.
|
| Maintenance and Service
Agreements |
Metro can
service and maintain your elevator to reduce and minimize downtimes
anywhere in just about any state across the country. |
| Union Installers and
Repair Technicians |
Whether your project requires union labor
or not, Metro uses installers and service techs that are certified by the International
Union of Elevator Constructors (IUEC) . All elevator
mechanics are licensed in various states. |
| Full-time Operators |
Metro can provide a
full-time operator that
can perform maintenance or minor repairs. |
| Intercom Systems |
Intercom communication between the
operator, the base platform, and all landing gates is important (if not
required by code) to ensure the safety of your workers. Metro can lease or sell you the intercom
system you require. |
| Tie-ins |
Securing the elevator tower to your
building sometimes requires
specially
engineered tie-ins. Metro Elevator's fabricating shop has the
personnel and expertise to build about any tie-in necessary for the
project. |
| Landing Gates |
Standard
landing gates
are typically 5' wide by 7'2" tall. If your project requires
something other than standard, Metro's fabricators can design and build
the customized landing gates when required. |
Customized
Upper Platforms |
Sometimes it's impossible to position the
base unit so that all upper landings are code compliant and in-line with the elevator car.
If that is your situation, Metro can fabricate and install
customized upper
platforms necessary to close the gap between the elevator car and
the gate. |
| Steel Base Pad |
If you lease one of our temporary
elevators, it makes sense in most situations to use our engineered
steel base pad
instead of forming, pouring and finishing then tearing out and disposing
of a concrete pad. The steel base
pads we lease are for the 30 passenger Champion Elevators. We can
also design and fabricate a steel base pad for any type and size
elevator you may be interested in purchasing. |
| Gate Electro-mechanical
Safety Interlocks |
To ensure safety and prevent injury,
Metro can install and service
electro-mechanical
safety interlocks on each landing gate. Electric interlocks
are required on permanent installations, and some state and local codes
may also require them on temporary installations.
