Custom Escalator in UAE Designed By Altivex
Every custom escalator in UAE project has different architectural and passenger-flow requirements. Altivex works around the building’s available space, traffic pattern and design requirements rather than relying on a single standard configuration. Customization can include:
- Escalator width and configuration
- Step finish and appearance
- Balustrade design
- Handrail specifications
- Operating speed based on project requirements
- Indoor or outdoor configuration
- Integration with the building’s architectural design
This approach allows the escalator to function as both a practical passenger-movement system and an integrated part of the building design.
