What is a Home Lift?

Home lifts are designed primarily to carry people and light goods, with a lower capacity compared to passenger lifts. They are meant for installation in private housing, and are not meant for public use. It also requires a certain headroom and pit depth, but is limited in terms of size and floors.
They are similar to normal lifts and are available in different styles for effortless incorporation to any home’s design and architecture. The main benefit of a home lift is the ability to move passengers securely among floors even during a power failure.

Architectural Flexibility

We have 2 technologies available for our FNE home lifts – Motor Room (MR) or Motor Roomless (MR).

 

What’s a Motor Room (MR)?

It is a separate room from the lift that houses the machinery and electrical controls that operates a lift. Typically located in a public corridor, the motor room should either be fully enclosed or embedded with secured access restrictions.

 

What’s Motor Roomless (MRL)?

 

This type of lift/elevator maximizes space utilization in buildings as it does not require a separate motor room on the building’s roof. Since the motors are typically housed in the shaft, it also conserves energy and helps with saving cost.

 

General Building Restrictions/ Requirements

For Singapore:

  1. For new lifts, a building plan for lift proposal has to be submitted to the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) for approval, prior to commencement of installation.
  2. Home lifts, whether hydraulic or traction, have to comply with Singapore Standard SS550:2009 – Code of Practice for Installation, Operation and Maintenance of Electric Passenger and Goods Lifts or Japan Elevator Association code.
  3. It is mandatory to appoint a BCA registered Lift Contractor/ BCA authorised examiner for lift inspection to obtain a valid Permit to Operate (PTO), which will be subjected to annual renewal.
