What is an Open Type Disabled Platform?

Open type disabled platform; It is one of the vertical transportation systems used to facilitate access between different floors and elevation levels for individuals who use wheelchairs or have difficulty using stairs.

These systems can be considered as an alternative or complementary to traditional elevator solutions; It helps to increase accessibility, especially at entrances, at transition points with stairs and in areas where limited elevation differences must be overcome.

Thanks to the open platform structure, the user can directly log in to the platform and reach the target level with appropriate security equipment.

Where is it used?

Open type disabled platforms can be used both for accessibility needs in existing structures and in new projects. Depending on the architectural features and intended use of the project;

• at residence and apartment entrances,
• in business centers and offices,
• in public institutions,
• in educational buildings,
• in healthcare institutions,
• in hotels and social facilities,
• in stores and commercial areas,
• at building entrances and areas with different elevation levels

available.

In each application, the technical specifications of the platform, travel distance, carrying capacity and safety equipment must be determined according to the project conditions.

Advantages of Open Type Disabled Platform

The most important purpose of open type platform systems is to help reduce physical access barriers in buildings. When appropriate project planning is done, an access solution that is as compatible as possible with the existing architecture can be created.

Systems can be implemented in a compact area depending on the project. This feature can provide a significant advantage, especially in cases where an accessibility solution needs to be created in existing structures.

Various safety equipment can be used around the platform and in moving parts to support user safety. The hardware to be used may vary depending on the model of the selected system and project requirements.

Security and User Comfort

As well as aesthetic appearance in disabled access systems safe use and correct project planning is also important.

The platform's carrying capacity, movement distance, entry-exit directions, control system, platform dimensions and safety equipment should be evaluated according to the usage area.

As EGETÜRK, we aim to select the appropriate system by evaluating the physical conditions and accessibility needs of the building during the project phase.

Architecturally Compatible Solutions

Not every building's architecture and access needs are the same. For this reason, project-based evaluation is important instead of a uniform application in open type disabled platforms.

The appropriate solution can be determined by examining the location of the platform, usable area, elevation difference, user needs and physical characteristics of the building. Thus, the system can be considered not only as a functional equipment but as a part of the accessibility infrastructure of the building.
