Commercial Elevators in Lahore: Serving Gulberg, DHA and Bahria
What Grade-A office developers in Lahore specify for high-rise passenger elevators — traffic analysis, group control and finish standards.
Where Lahore's demand is growing
Gulberg III, MM Alam Road, DHA phases 5–8 and Bahria Town are absorbing more mid-rise commercial and mixed-use construction than any other Punjab market. Liftech's Lahore regional office handles traffic study, installation and AMC across these zones.
Why group control matters
For office towers above 10 stops, destination-dispatch (DCS) group control cuts average waiting time 25–40%, journey time 15–25% and kWh/trip 8–15% versus classical up-collective. The controller assigns the car that minimizes total system time and pre-positions idle cars near expected demand zones.
Traffic study inputs
A Grade-A tower traffic model needs: floor population density (typically 1 person per 8–12 m² NIA), 5-minute up-peak arrival rate, target interval ≤30 s, HC-5 ≥12% and quality-of-service acceptance (waiting time ≤30 s for 90% of trips). Bring the elevator engineer in at civil design stage — pit depth, overhead, hoistway width and lobby layout are all downstream of the elevator selection.
Finish and code baseline
Lahore Grade-A tenants now expect EN 81-70 accessibility (1100×1400 mm cabin, 900 mm door, Braille tactile), EN 81-72 firefighter option on at least one shaft, and a fire-recall Phase I/II sequence with the FAS panel.
