Elevator by the front stairway or in the durchsicht
An elevator can easily be incorporated as part of the main stairways in many existing buildings without requiring large renovations or inconveniencing the residents. The elevator can be placed next to the staircase or in the durchsicht, the free space that is present between the staircases, as shown in the illustration below, depending on where there is most space. If you have a free space of 2.80 m or more, you can use a standard solution, if the area is smaller, it will require adjustment of the stairway width or special elevator dimensions.
The elevator is delivered in its own self-supporting shaft and therefore does not strain the building's existing construction. Additionally, it can be mounted to run between all floors from basement to ceiling. HYDRO-CON has the market's best cabin space optimization in relation to shaft size, the elevator is available in many sizes and with many customization options.

THREE ADVANTAGES OF AN ELEVATOR INSTALLATION
Accessibility
Comfort and accessibility for all elderly, handicapped, disabled, families with prams, heavy shopping bags and the like are ensured.
Increase in property value
The property value rises significantly on all floors, according to Home, the square meter price rises by almost DKK 2,600.
Home insurance for old age
The home is future-proofed for existing residents in their old age, so they are not forced to move because they can no longer handle the stairs. The number of elderly people in Copenhagen continually increases and is expected to double in 2030.
