In any multi-level building, elevators are important facilities that provide convenience to users, especially for clients and tenants. However, apart from a convenient experience, elevator interiors are also capable of giving passengers a beautiful ride while creating a good first impression. Both functionality and aesthetics can be attributed to how elevators are made. Basically, an elevator interior consists of ceilings, walls, floors, handrails, and some may have mirrors for added benefit. When all these parts are all professionally regarded and built, the result can enhance the overall ambiance of the elevator.
The essential factors that have to be carefully considered for a successful upgrade or new build of elevator interiors are the design, materials, and the manufacturers of the elevator components. While there are standard interiors available, going for a customized interior is a lot better if you want to achieve a statement and complement the overall design of your building. There are endless options in customizing elevator interiors because of the wide variety of materials to choose from. In deciding which one works best for each elevator interior element, here is a quick guide.
For the ceiling, the best option for material would be aluminum frames since this component works to keep the lighting fixtures in their place. This material is easy to manufacture and install. When it comes to the floor, it needs durable, sturdy, and non-porous material due to heavy foot traffic and impact. Stainless steel or other steel alloys would be a great choice. Among the different parts of elevator interiors, wall panels are the most often in contact with the passengers. Hence, the material must be durable, smooth, and stain-free. As for the handrail, a perfect material option would be a scratch-free metal like bronze or stainless steel.
Finally, it is equally important to choose the right manufacturer or fabricator for your elevator interior components.
