Product Overview
Intelligent customization redefines vertical transportation
Clinical Elevators are typically used in smaller settings like outpatient surgery centers, doctors' offices, specialist clinics, and dental offices. While they must accommodate gurneys and wheelchairs, they rarely require the extreme bed-depth of a main hospital elevator. The key differences from a full hospital elevator are often a lower speed requirement (as clinics are typically low-rise), a greater emphasis on aesthetic finish (less industrial look), and quieter operation to maintain a calming environment for outpatients.
The load capacity is usually less than a hospital's Patient Lift, but the design must still prioritize accessibility and smooth ride quality for those with mobility issues. Finishes include durable, yet aesthetically pleasing laminates and subtle LED lighting. Hygiene remains important, requiring non-porous and easily cleanable materials, but the heavy-duty bumper rails required in a high-impact hospital environment may be optional or replaced with a more subtle skirting.

Factors To Consider When Choosing Elevator
Comprehensive assessment, wise choice
Technical Factors
- Door Cycle Time: Setting a slightly longer door dwell time than a standard elevator to allow patients with limited mobility or wheelchairs to enter and exit safely.
- Interference Screening: Specifying shielded wiring and components to prevent the lift's electromagnetic fields from interfering with sensitive diagnostic equipment.
- Acoustic Rating: Requiring a verifiable acoustic rating (e.g., decibel level) for the elevator system to ensure it meets the low noise standards of a therapeutic environment.
Usage Factors
- Emergency Access: Ensuring local EMT and fire department personnel are aware of and have access to the Fire Service Phase II key location.
- Long-Term Aesthetics: Selecting interior finishes that are highly scratch-resistant and retain their professional, clean look over many years of public use.
- Security Lockouts: Using timers or card access to lock the elevator to the lobby level after business hours for building security.
