Frequently Asked Questions
Is a full-glass cabin as safe as a standard elevator?
Yes - it runs on the same VVVF-controlled traction or hydraulic drive as VDMIL's other elevators, with backup lighting and emergency braking included as standard.
Where does a capsule elevator work best?
Hotel atriums, malls, premium office lobbies and luxury residential developments are the most common fit, anywhere the elevator itself is meant to be part of the architecture rather than hidden away.
Can it be installed in a new building or only retrofitted?
Both - the design suits new-build luxury homes as well as premium commercial lobbies being upgraded.
