Upon first glance, they may appear to be ordinary elevators, doors, electronic devices, and sturdy structures. However, upon closer inspection, it becomes evident that there is much more to them.
Elevators intended for use on board of navy vessels must operate under far more demanding conditions than those found in the comfort of a typical high-rise building on solid ground. The unique challenges imposed upon marine elevators are well-known to anyone familiar with the maritime environment. Factors such as vessel movement, shock resistance, vibrations, fire safety measures, escape routes, and cable configurations all necessitate specialized designs. Among these considerations, fire safety stands out as perhaps the most critical constraint.
At Goodlift Marine Projects B.V. , we possess a deep understanding of the stringent rules and regulations enforced by international organizations responsible for safety aboard navy vessels, as well as those established by classification bureaus and governments.
In cases where standard off-the-shelf solutions are either unavailable or not permitted, our tailor-made elevators offer the perfect solution. Whether it’s passenger or crew elevators, electrically or hydraulically powered systems, or the strategic placement of the lift machine room on top of, adjacent to, or below the elevator trunk, our team of designers will craft a customized solution. Our specialization extends to the incorporation of fire-retardant doors in accordance with SOLAS guidelines, water tightness, including options for automatic doors or manually operated doors.
A passenger lift, often simply referred to as an elevator, is a vertical transportation device designed to carry people and sometimes goods between different levels of a building or structure. Passenger lifts are a common feature in buildings with multiple floors, such as office buildings, residential complexes, hotels, shopping malls, and hospitals.
When conventional solutions are either unavailable or restricted, our custom-crafted lifts provide the solution you need. Whether it’s passenger or crew lifts, operated by a chain drive or hydraulics, with the lift machine room located on top of the trunk, adjacent to it, or below, our team of designers excels in devising tailored answers. Our specialization extends to the installation of water tight doors or fire-resistant doors in compliance with SOLAS standards, featuring automatic or manually operated.
