Stretcher Elevator
A stretcher elevator is designed to carry an elevated stretcher with a patient lying horizontally on it. This type of elevator plays a crucial role in ensuring safety during medical emergencies. When faced with a sudden medical crisis, having a stretcher elevator allows for the safe and efficient transportation of patients.
In accordance with international building regulations, residential buildings that have four or more floors or an entrance level floor height exceeding 9m from the outdoor ground level must be equipped with elevators. For each residential unit with an elevator, it is mandatory to have at least one elevator that can accommodate a stretcher.
Having these stretcher-equipped elevators in residential buildings ensures that medical assistance can be promptly provided when needed, providing a vital safety measure for residents and visitors alike.
