Rieka Hospital Lift for Kanpur

Up to six stops, 1.0 m/s is comfortable. Beyond that, 1.5-1.75 m/s keeps waiting times acceptable in Kanpur buildings. Higher speeds raise cost and shaft requirements, so Rieka specifies against your actual Kanpur building height rather than selling the fastest option.

An MRL puts a compact gearless machine inside the shaft, removing the overhead machine room - which in Kanpur often decides whether the project is viable at all. For Kanpur buildings constrained by municipal height limits or committed terrace space, that is often the deciding factor — and the gearless drive draws less power.

Yes, and hospital lift retrofits are a large part of what we do in Kanpur, because most leather tanneries, old havelis and apartments 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 Hospital Lift that often means a compact or pitless build.

Rieka supplies fireman's lift configuration, fire-rated landing doors and fire-recall operation where the building class requires it under NBC 2016. For Kanpur projects the engineer confirms which provisions apply to your occupancy type before quoting.

Every new hospital lift installed in Kanpur carries a 24-month comprehensive warranty covering the machine, controller, doors and safety gear. Wear items follow their own schedule. Extended cover on your Hospital Lift is available inside an AMC and is quoted upfront, not sprung later.
