Elevator installation policy in old residential areas

According to the relevant laws and regulations, the installation of elevators in old communities belongs to "rebuilding and rebuilding buildings and their ancillary facilities". Rebuilding and rebuilding buildings and their ancillary facilities is a major change to buildings. This change not only changes the appearance, but also often has a significant impact on the use function and even the safety factor of the building. It is closely related to the interests of all owners, and it is a major issue within the construction department. It should be approved by more than three-quarters of the owners and more than three-quarters of the voters in the exclusive area.

All three households with one elevator in old houses can be equipped with external elevators, and the national policy encourages old small high-rise buildings to install elevators. However, whether the external elevator can be installed must go through the necessary examination and approval procedures. Whether an external elevator can be installed in an old house is a very complicated project, and the building needs to be evaluated first. Will the addition and transformation of elevators have an impact on fire protection zoning and lighting? At the same time, we should also consider the wishes of the property owner of the whole building and how to share the expenses. Unlike ordinary old buildings, old communities often have multiple owners. Therefore, when installing the elevator, it depends on the wishes of the owner and the actual situation of the house.
