Facade elevators are used in construction high-rise constructions and built buildings. They are used for cargo transportation, human transportation and exterior cleaning. Front elevators both reduce work accidents to zero and reduce construction time. The facade elevator is an elevator placed in very high-rise buildings. Since this elevator is generally used in construction, its contribution to the labor force is very good. This elevator, which provides both safety and convenience, reduces work accidents significantly and increases labor cost. These lifts can be easily loaded and unloaded. This elevator, which is installed on almost any floor, can handle heavy loads up to 1.5 and 2 tons. They are also used in high-rise buildings under renovation.
In today's time, the constructions are made in multi-storey sizes. Facade elevators are now used in all constructions in order to prevent labor, time and cost losses during the construction works while material is being transported between the floors while materials coming from outside are taken to the floors. Beyond the installation costs that have become increasingly economical, facade elevators increase operating performance and reduce construction costs thanks to the quick installation and practical use.
Depending on the construction features, steel and functional cabins are used in facade elevators which are produced in many different types and the desired height is reached from outside the building without using rope. Moreover, they are produced as high security against the risk of gear skipping or gear breakage in order not to endanger the lives of employees during their use. Many of them have brake systems that automatically activate in case of danger. The widths of the cabins are capable of carrying construction materials and elements of different lengths and weights.
In addition to these benefits, it is a legal obligation to carry out periodic checks of front elevators, which carry loads and personnel to fast-running and very high constructions, because they carry heavy loads and people as a result.
The Elevator Maintenance and Operation Regulation issued by the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Regulation on Health and Safety Conditions in the Use of Work Equipment issued by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, the conditions and the criteria for the use, maintenance and periodic checks of all elevators in terms of human health and property safety; standards.
In accordance with these legal regulations, regular inspections of the façade lifts must be carried out by authorized persons in the fields of machinery and electricity. If the standards are not shown for a further period, the elevators must be inspected at least once a year.
