Add 3” to hoistway width for seismic applications.

Overhead dimensions are based on a 6’ high gate and 8’ cab. Different cab heights or full–height passenger gates will affect this requirement.

Overhead and pit dimensions are based on a maximum speed of 200 fpm. Increasing the speed will increase these requirements.

All Schumacher Elevator Company Traction Freight Elevators meet or exceed all requirements set by the American Society of Mechanical Engineeers (ASME A17.1).

Given dimensions are for planning purposes only and are not intended for construction use. Actual dimensions will be verified during the engineering process.

Custom designs available.
