Duty types
Clinical duty decides car size, standby power and door timing before capacity ever enters the conversation.
Healthcare lift specialists
Healthcare buildings ask for tolerances a standard passenger catalogue does not carry — levelling accurate under a loaded trolley, door dwell long enough for a bed transfer, priority control a nurse can trigger without a keycard search. We have fitted that specification into hospitals and nursing homes across Delhi NCR, on standby power circuits agreed with the electrical consultant rather than assumed. When a stopped lift is a clinical problem and not an inconvenience, that is the standard we hold ourselves to.
Healthcare duty
These are the requirements that most often get missed when a hospital lift is quoted from a standard passenger catalogue.
The car must take a trolley lengthwise with staff either side. This drives car depth, and car depth drives the shaft.
A trolley wheel catches on a step of a few millimetres. Levelling has to hold as the car loads and unloads, which is a drive and controller question.
Bed transfer takes longer than a passenger walking in. Door timing is set separately for the bed lift and the visitor lifts.
Staff must be able to take a car out of public service and run it directly to a floor. That is a keyswitch and a control mode, specified up front.
The bed lift group runs on the hospital generator circuit. Its power feed is planned with the electrical consultant, not after handover.
Wipeable stainless surfaces, coved joints and handrails that can be cleaned. Textured or grooved finishes are avoided.
Where they go
Alongside
Equipment is half the decision. These are the parts of the lifecycle we cover for it.
Priority response — a stopped bed lift is a clinical problem, not an inconvenience.
OpenCommon questions
Stretcher elevator price is set by car depth, rated load, levelling accuracy, standby-power wiring and door type — a plain bed lift on general ward duty costs well below an ICU-duty car with standby power and priority control fitted. We price against the clinical duty you declare, not a generic hospital-lift rate, once we know the bed count and floors served.
Plan for at least 2100 mm of internal depth so a stretcher fits lengthwise with staff either side. A 1600 kg car at roughly 1600 × 2400 mm internal is the common working size.
Side-opening gives the widest clear opening for a given shaft width, which is what a bed needs. Centre-opening doors are faster and better for high-traffic visitor lifts.
Yes. Bed and service lifts are normally connected to the standby supply so patient movement continues during an outage. This is planned with the electrical consultant.
Monthly at minimum, with levelling and door timing checked every visit. Accreditation audits usually ask for the signed service record, so we leave one each time.
Rarely. Car depth is the constraint and it is fixed by the shaft. Where the shaft allows it, a modernization can change car, doors and controller together.
Send the floor count, the number of beds and the intended lift groups. We will return car sizes, door widths and shaft requirements in writing.
