Giving Elevators a Lift

When one considers a major building renovation, it’s easy to focus on spaces like corridors, lobbies, offices, guest or patient rooms—in other words, all the public-facing spaces. We would argue that right after the lobby, a building’s elevators are the very next public-facing space building occupants and visitors see.

This course lays out the case for cab renovations as a part of an overall building interior update.

Learning Objectives:

• Explore the factors driving the need for elevator cab interior renovation.
• Examine the various codes and standards impacting a cab renovation project.
• Identify the material and design options for cab walls, trims, hardware, ceilings and lighting.
