Lift Drawings
How to Read These Drawings?
Understanding technical drawings is an essential step in selecting the right lift for your home or project. At Elevare, we provide drawings in both PDF and DWG formats to help architects and homeowners plan the integration of Aritco lifts with accuracy and elegance.
Below is a guide to reading Aritco’s technical lift drawings:
Lift Sides: A, B, C, D
Every Aritco lift has four sides (labeled A–D) which serve as reference points for door configuration and access orientation.
- Side A / C / B: can be fitted with a single door
- Combination of Side A and C: for open-through door configuration
- L-shaped configuration (B + C or A + B): for corner entry solutions
Platform Size
The platform size — highlighted in brown — represents the standing area inside the lift used by the passenger. This is the clear usable space within the lift cabin.
Shaft Size
The shaft size refers to the total clear dimensions of the lift shaft — the full width and depth measured from wall to wall. This includes the lift platform, surrounding safety clearance, and structural space required for installation.
Hole-through Size
This measurement indicates the floor opening (void) required between levels to accommodate the lift shaft and allow proper installation. Ensure that your building’s structure provides sufficient clearance for this space.
