Elevators are essential to how modern buildings function, but lift shafts and machine spaces can play a part in how a fire and smoke behave, and the safety of people using them is a key concern. MEP Fire provides fire suppression, detection and specialist advice for elevators and their associated spaces.
Elevators involve shafts and machine spaces that can be relevant to how a fire and smoke move through a building, as well as the safety of anyone using a lift when a fire occurs. Because lifts connect multiple levels and rely on equipment that can itself be a source of risk, they are an important consideration within a building’s overall approach to fire safety.
MEP Fire helps address the fire risks associated with elevators through detection and suppression suited to the relevant spaces, following an assessment of the specific situation. We provide specialist advice on the most appropriate approach and support the protection over time, helping keep people and the building safe.
