Installing an elevator is a structural project as much as a mechanical one. Shaft dimensions, pit depth, headroom, electrical supply, and the building’s daily traffic all decide which system will actually work and installing it wrong is expensive to undo.
From the first site visit to the final handover, we follow a clear and proven process to make sure your elevator is safe, compliant, and built to last. Here’s how it works:
An engineer visits the site to measure shaft or pit space, headroom, existing openings, and electrical capacity. In older Beirut buildings, this step decides whether a self-supporting structure or an MRL unit can be retrofitted without major demolition.
We calculate expected passenger or load traffic and match it against travel height, pit depth, and power supply to recommend traction, hydraulic, or MRL, and explain the trade-offs in cost, speed, and space rather than defaulting to one system.
We prepare the technical documentation your project needs for municipal and civil defense approval. Your architect or contractor should confirm the specific requirements that apply to your building and district.
We stock common components and spare parts locally in Beirut, so standard installations aren’t held up waiting on customs clearance. Only custom-cabin finishes or non-standard equipment require longer lead times, and we’ll tell you upfront if that applies to your job.
Our own technicians handle rail alignment, cabin fitting, wiring, and control-system commissioning on site. A straightforward residential or low-rise installation typically runs a few weeks; high-rise, heavy-duty lifts, or shaft construction take longer. We’ll give you a project-specific timeline in writing.
Every lift is load-tested and checked against EN 81-20 and EN 81-50, including the emergency alarm and communication system. You get commissioning documentation, a warranty on the installation, and a walk-through of the controls and emergency procedures with your building staff.
Headroom, travel height, and pit depth are confirmed on-site during the free survey before any quote is written.
From passenger elevators to accessibility lifts, we provide a complete range of elevator and lift solutions for residential, commercial and industrial spaces. Every installation is designed for safety, efficiency, and long-term performance.
Traffic-calculated systems for offices, hospitals, and multi-tenant buildings where downtime isn’t an option, sized to actual peak-hour demand rather than a standard default cab.
Compact traction or MRL units that fit into existing villas and apartments, often without a dedicated machine room, for households where stairs have become a barrier for elderly parents or family members with reduced mobility.
Reinforced cabins and higher load ratings for warehouses, retail back-of-house, and multi-level parking, engineered around the actual weights and dimensions they’ll carry daily rather than a passenger-lift frame adapted after the fact.
For malls, airports, and hospitals with continuous foot traffic. Installed with anti-slip steps, emergency braking, and step-gap sensors to European safety standards.
Inclined platform lifts for staircases that can’t be widened, indoor stair lifts, and wheelchair platform lifts for buildings retrofitting for accessibility compliance.
Small-format lifts for restaurants, laundries, and offices moving goods between floors, plus sliding and revolving entrance doors often specified alongside a new lobby elevator.
We do more than install elevators. We give building owners a reliable process, local support and long-term peace of mind — from the first survey to years of aftercare.
That's the Ecolift difference.
Our own engineers and technicians handle survey, installation, and later maintenance — no subcontracted labor changing hands between stages.
Common components are on hand locally, so routine installs and future servicing aren't dependent on shipping delays.
The same emergency contact that answers during your project keeps answering after handover.
You get a proposal based on your building's actual survey, not a template price.
Load testing and safety checks are documented and signed off before you take delivery, not left implicit.
