Important advice!

Example: foldable guard rail

When choosing the railing, the free distances acc. to EN81-20 5.4.7.4 are to be considered:

- 0.70m height at distances 0.30m up to 0.50m (interior edge hand rail- shaft wall)
- 1.10m at distances beyond 0.50m (interior edge hand rail- shaft wall)
- 10cm distance between outer edge hand rail and any parts in the shaft.

General description

The construction and stability of the guard rails of the new series are according to EN 81-20.
With four screws in each case the solid bases will be fixed on the car roof. In order to be able to withstand a force of 1000N acting anywhere on the upper part of the railing without an elastic deformation of more than 50mm depending on the structure of the ceiling, our optionally available mounting kit with mounting rails has to be used. On these then the railing is fixed. Due to this kind of fixation the larger surface improves the force absorption.

It may be necessary to fix an additional tensioning rope. It will be fixed in the upper area of the guard rail and at a strong position (e.g. support frame) of the lift cabin. The rail system and the tensioning rope are included in the optional mounting kit.
The guard rail is 0.70m respectively 1.10m high and the maximum width is 1.30m. The width is variably adjustable. The handrail and the cross bar will be customized locally to the necessary length with a power cutter or hack saw.
The rigid guard rail can be extended with the extension package (VP).
The guard rail acc. to EN 81-20 is available in a rigid, foldable and telescopic version.
The baseboard (optional to order) as well is necessary for the complete construction of the guard rail according to EN 81-20.

Foldable guard rail

Description foldable guard rail

Examples: guard rail extended and retracted

Two different sizes of the foldable guard rail are available.
When two guard rails are mounted on two sides of the lift cabin it is possible to fold them onto one another. The opened as well as the turned down position is monitored by contacts. The locking clicks into place automatically during opening. The unlocking to turn down is done by pulling up the cross bar.

Depending on the structure of the ceiling, our mounting kit for handrails rails has to be used as well as maybe other individual measures for an appropriate fixation.
