Most of machine room less elevators are used for low to mid rise buildings. Machine room less elevators in mid-rise buildings usually serves up to 20 floors, also depends load capacity of car.
MRL lifts allow you architectural flexibility, but they also provide fast, powerful and energy – efficient transportation. Though traction lifts were originally limited to high-rise, the innovative MRL design has allowed engineers to adapt traction elevators for low – rise buildings and multi – story homes.
