ALL ABOUT ELEVATORS

INTRODUCTION TO ELEVATORS




This is our first blog therefore, we thought to make give you information on all you need to know about Volkslift and what we do. Elevators started all the way back in 1880 after Wener Von Siemens made the first electric elevator. Traditional elevators mostly involved the use of pulleys and winches but with this innovation it later came to revolutionize escalators and elevators. The very first elevators were called hoists. We have moved from hydraulic powered elevators to machine room and machine room less elevators making them much more efficient, faster and more convenient for people.

So many myths revolve around elevators but one thing for sure statistically speaking, elevators are much safer than cars probably because they have a very slim chance of breaking on their own and even smaller chance they would cause an accident because they have automated pathways and have much safer security precautions.

Today, modern elevators have proven quite useful and still very relevant as we have most high-rise buildings using them and more so saves on time instead of using stairs. Did you know that most space stations have elevators to help transport people to the space station?

America alone has over 700,000 elevators thus making it a possibility that they could carry an equal population number of the earth after every three days. They have helped increase mobility, accessibility and heightened our experience and our view of the world. The notion reach for the stars will no longer just be a saying we pass around but an actual reality. Volkslift aims to help achieve this reality but of course using the best quality by encompassing by encompassing German technologies and more so having the best experienced professionals.

While still on this elevating concept we should also look at other means of transportation and see how escalators and walkways have also contributed to this feat. They are convenient for short distances and useful for short distances. The world has new concepts, new ideas and new innovations every other day so questions you should ask yourself is where does your future lie.
