Why Invest in a Commercial Elevator Installation?

Commercial elevators are more than just a way to get from levels A to B (and beyond!). They’re valuable investments in the functionality and future growth of your building and ensure that you’re compliant with all relevant regulations. Key benefits of installing a commercial elevator like RAM’s Stratus or Crystal models include:

• Enhanced Accessibility—Elevators create an inclusive, easy-to-navigate space for all, including those with mobility considerations.
• Increased Property Value—With accessible design have become increasingly sought after, a well-designed and implemented elevator system significantly boosts your property value and makes it more attractive to tenants and customers.
• Operational Efficiency—Elevators make it easier (and safer) for people to move themselves and heavy/awkward objects across multiple floors.
• Compliance with Regulations: In addition to key accessibility regulations outlined by the ADA, choosing an elevator from a trusted manufacturer like RAM means your unit will be in full compliance with all relevant standards, including CAS B44-2022

Key Considerations for a Successful Installation

Before selecting your commercial elevator, you’ll want to consider factors such as the following:

Site Assessment and Planning

A comprehensive site evaluation is crucial to finding the right fit for your space. The process involves thoroughly assessing the available space(s), structural requirements, and building layout to determine the best solution for your unique needs. RAM Elevators + Lifts provides customized solutions that seamlessly integrate the core elements identified in your assessment into your building’s design.

Compliance with Safety Standards

Adhering to safety regulations, such as the B44 Elevator Code, is critical during installation. Compliance ensures the elevator operates safely and meets industry standards, protecting both users and building owners. RAM Elevators prioritizes safety by designing products that adhere to these rigorous standards.

Customization for Aesthetics and Functionality

Modern elevators are no longer just functional elements that stand out like an eyesore in your lobby; they are an extension of your brand and architectural design. Both RAM’s Stratus and Crystal models can be customized in multiple ways, including cabin finishes, lighting, and control panels, to ensure your elevator complements and elevate your space!
