Lifts and Elevators in Defence Colony

Every Rieka Home Lift in Defence Colony ships with an ARD - Automatic Rescue Device - as standard, not as a paid extra. On power failure the home lift moves to the nearest landing on battery and opens the doors. Given the supply pattern in parts of South Delhi, we treat this as non-negotiable.

Yes. Defence Colony falls within Rieka's South Delhi service area, and our engineers cover it along with Lajpat Nagar, Jangpura, South Extension. Smaller towns are often told no lift company will travel out — we schedule Defence Colony on the same service route as the rest of the district.

Yes, and home lift retrofits are a large part of what we do in Defence Colony, because most G+3 builder floors with lift shafts retrofitted here were built before lifts were standard. The engineer checks load-bearing capacity, available shaft space and headroom, then proposes a configuration that fits - for a Home Lift that often means a compact or pitless build.

Most Defence Colony installations fall between ₹3.5 lakh and ₹25 lakh, depending on type, stops and finish. Rieka quotes in writing after a free site survey — never a figure over the phone, because the building always changes the answer.

Delhi lift rules and NBC 2016 apply regardless of town size. Rieka prepares the drawings, files the application and attends the inspection for Defence Colony projects, so you are not navigating the department yourself.
