Frequently Asked Questions

What headroom is required?

Traction lifts require a minimum headroom of 3400mm above the top floor. Hydraulic systems are more compact, often needing only 2800mm of clearance, making them ideal for existing villa renovations.

How often is maintenance required?

Our engineering team conducts monthly preventive maintenance visits. We inspect cabin ropes, test the automatic rescue device, and calibrate the controller to ensure zero operational downtime.
