One of the most important things to consider when buying a new home elevator is safety – after all, when it comes to the wellbeing of you and your family there is no room to cut corners.
Many people often have questions and concerns about just how safe our home elevators are, and whether they will be reliable for many years after purchase.
That’s why today we are clearing up a few common misconceptions regarding home elevator safety, to help give you peace of mind and confidence in your new lift.
What will happen if the power fails?
A common concern regarding home elevator safety is what will happen should the electricity cut out. Will you be stuck in the elevator with no way of getting out? Or trapped on the top floor?
Never fear, all of our elevators are designed with emergency lowering technology which is designed to lower the elevator to the lowest floor possible in the event of power failure with all safety features in place.
Once the elevator has touched down safely, the doors will unlock, allowing you to exit the lift and get on with life
What if I do get stuck in the lift?
Of course, many people still worry that one day something might happen that causes their lift to malfunction. That is why all of our lifts feature an emergency telephone line.
This line is connected 24/7 to the Easy Living Home Elevators hotline, which is manned day and night by experts who know exactly how to get your lift moving again.
That means that a home lift is just as safe as riding in a professional lift in an office building, for example, so there really is nothing to worry about.
