How it works
- 01
Fire-rated construction
Lift shaft enclosures and lobby doors are constructed to resist fire for a prescribed period. These fire-rated elements keep flames and smoke from spreading.
- 02
Smoke detection and fire alarms
Connected detection systems ensure any sign of smoke or heat triggers alarms and automated responses.
- 03
Emergency communication
Modern lift systems include intercoms or phones in the lift car to connect occupants with help if they are trapped during a fire.
- 04
Automatic recall and shutdown
In the event of a fire alarm, lifts are programmed to return to a safe floor and remain inactive to avoid trapping passengers.
- 05
Ventilation control
Smoke control and pressurisation help manage airflow around the lift shaft, minimising smoke movement throughout the building.
- 06
Access for fire services
Lift shafts are designed so that fire personnel can safely access and operate lifts or manual overrides during emergency response.
