A 13-person Stannah passenger lift has been installed at the Tormead School for girls in Guildford, Surrey. Its adjacent-entry doors allow for the easy movement of people and equipment across the school’s four floors.
The Stannah Xtralift has been fitted within the school’s new four-storey atrium. The passenger lift was specified due to its adjacent-entry doors which could easily handle the demanding workload and large loads of equipment.
The lift also meets all the required standards for schools including the Equality Act 2010, Part M and EN81-70, EN81-1, CE mark and The Lift Directive 95/16/EC.
The Xtralift’s car and landing doors are finished in satin stainless steel complemented by a grey, easy-clean laminated interior; half-height rear-wall mirror; and an anti-bacterial grey floor.
The wall-mounted lift features an energy efficient, fearless traction drive and travels a distance of 8750mm at a speed of 1.0m/s.
The lift is covered by Stannah’s comprehensive service plan which includes 24-hour breakdown and service visits, with continued lift maintenance by the Southern England branch of Stannah Lift Services.
English Spirit Distillery has used an extensive package of Altro products front and back of house, in their new visitor centre café, shop and viewing area for the working distillery.
