What Are the Benefits of Commercial Elevators?

Commercial elevators are necessary for most buildings that have more than one floor. While some of your patrons may use them out of convenience, others may require them to get from one level to the next. Among the benefits of commercial elevators are:

• Accessibility – You should strive to make your business accessible for as many customers as possible. Elevators can assist with this endeavor.
• Functionality – Commercial elevators save time and energy when traveling from one floor to another. Additionally, they can be of use for moving heavy, bulky items.
• Increased Property Value – Installing a commercial elevator in your building can significantly increase its value.
• Safety – Elevators minimize the risk of employees or customers falling and getting hurt. Carson Elevator can ensure your elevator is safe.
• Style – We invite you to showcase your sense of style with a commercial elevator. Our commercial elevator design experts can help you achieve any aesthetic you desire.

How Much Space Is Needed for Commercial Elevators?

Typically, you will need five to seven feet of space on each side to satisfy the length and width requirements of a commercial elevator. Furthermore, you will need at least four feet of depth below your elevator within its shaft. Carson Elevator offers non-proprietary elevator control and monitoring solutions, meaning we will use equipment and tools that meet your needs. If you require extra space, we can devise an elevator system that is both serviceable and maintainable. Our team would be happy to visit your site and create a solution for you.

How Many People Can Fit in a Commercial Elevator?

The number of people who can fit in your commercial elevator and its weight limit will vary depending on size and construction. If you know you will need to move large groups of people or plan on using your commercial elevator to transport heavy equipment, let us know. We will design a commercial elevator to meet your specifications.

We recognize choosing a commercial elevator is a significant decision. Our experts are ready to answer any questions you have about the different types of elevators and how they can benefit you. We are committed to your satisfaction, so we will gladly visit your property to discuss your options and explain the advantages of various commercial elevators. Our most popular options include:
