Lift & elevator solutions

Configured around the building, the users and the available space. Every lift project has its own constraints. SMCK approaches lift selection and installation by considering the building layout, available shaft or structural space, travel requirements, intended use, capacity, dimensions, access conditions and project programme.

Key offerings & scope

Passenger lift solutions for residential, commercial and mixed-use buildings.

Lift solutions for different capacities and cabin dimensions.

Lift packages coordinated for new buildings and existing structures where suitable.

Lift equipment supply matched to project specifications and approved requirements.

Installation of lift components and associated interfaces within the defined scope.

Testing, commissioning and completion checks prior to handover.

Our service

Steel lift structures

Engineered and fabricated to accommodate different lift sizes and building conditions. Where a conventional reinforced-concrete lift shaft is unavailable, unsuitable or not part of the project arrangement, SMCK can provide steel lift structures designed and fabricated to form the supporting enclosure and structural framework for the lift installation, subject to the project design and engineering requirements.

Key offerings & scope

Steel lift shafts and supporting frames for different lift sizes.

Single- and multi-level steel structures, subject to project requirements.

Fabrication of structural steel members and connection components.

Installation, alignment and fixing of the steel structure at site.

Coordination of door openings, landing levels and lift equipment interfaces.

Surface preparation and finishing as specified by the project.

Adaptation to site constraints and existing building conditions, subject to engineering approval.
