What are the positive significance of installing elevators in old buildings

As China gradually enters an aging society, the elderly population is increasing rapidly. For many elderly people, it is difficult to climb old buildings without elevators. In many old communities, the problem of "difficulty in going up and down" has become increasingly prominent, which has gradually developed into an obstacle to the travel and life of the elderly. The requirement for installing elevators in old buildings is that the floor of the four-story and above residential or household entrance level must be installed when the height from the outdoor design ground exceeds 10m, which can solve the travel obstacles of the elderly from the source and better meet the needs of the elderly to participate in social life.

The government has put forward guiding opinions and requirements for the modernization of urban residential industrialization in energy saving, low carbon, environmental protection, intelligence and ecology. Planning and transformation around the installation of elevators and other systems in old buildings. The main purpose is to solve the practical problems of inconvenience in life and travel difficulties for the elderly, weak, sick and disabled groups. In addition to the obvious benefits of convenient travel and living, after the implementation of the installation of elevators in old buildings, the area of ​​the building can be appropriately expanded, the area available to residents is larger, and there is also the benefit of more value preservation of real estate. Not only that, the building can also be beautified after the installation.

In fact, it is relatively easy to install elevators in old buildings. There are no disadvantages from installation to use, and the earthquake resistance of the building will not be affected. However, whether old buildings can be installed requires companies with relevant qualifications to judge based on the completion data of the building, and professional institutions to test and evaluate the building. I firmly believe that with the support of the government and the joint efforts of the people, the new ecological community where elevators are installed in old buildings will definitely create a livable, beautiful and intelligent living environment for the people.
