The design utilizes wire ropes in conjunction with a single hydraulic jack to lift the elevator at a 1:2 ratio. For each foot the jack rises, the elevator rises two feet. The platform is supported by a cantilevered car frame with the jack, rails, and roping located on one side of the hoistway.

Advantages:

  • Jack hole is not required. This eliminates the cost of drilling and the risk of ground contamination from an oil leak
  • Accommodates front, rear, and side opening configurations
  • Allows for glass walls on sides where equipment is not located
  • Rail bracket attachment only required on one wall of the hoistway
  • Available with higher travels up to approximately 90'-0"
  • Minimal pit and overhead requirements

Disadvantages:

  • May require a large hoistway width to accommodate jacks mounted on either side of the platform
  • Additional rail force considerations are necessary to accommodate rail brackets being mounted only on one wall
  • Governor access door is required in the overhead unless a special governor is provided
  • Limited to 3,000-lb. capacity rating
  • Installation time is typically higher when compared to an in-ground application
