System Approach
Rail Routes Adapted to the Site
Inclined lifts carry passengers along a rail route between levels in homes, villas, hotels, resorts, tourist facilities and urban transport projects. On steep slopes and sites with long stairways, they can complement pedestrian routes. Route profiles, landings and access paths are planned together using site surveys and expected passenger flows.
Capacity and Car Levelling
Depending on the project, cars for 8–50 passengers, routes exceeding 300 metres and speeds up to 2 m/s can be considered. These figures are planning scenarios and do not describe one model guaranteed to achieve all three. Supporting structures, drives, braking and power infrastructure are verified against the route and duty. On variable gradients, a suitable automatic levelling system is designed to keep the car floor horizontal during travel.
Accessible Cars and Landings
Automatic doors, panoramic glazing, intermediate stops and easy-to-use controls can be selected for the project. Clear door openings, manoeuvring space at landings and reachable controls are considered together for passengers using wheelchairs or travelling with pushchairs and luggage. Pedestrian connections at each landing form part of indoor and outdoor designs.
Safety and Maintenance Access
Outdoor routes require assessment of rainfall, drainage, corrosion and temperature variation alongside rail and car equipment. Safe access for maintenance staff, passenger evacuation and communication at landings are considered during design. The site survey and installation design determine the final equipment and performance.
