What is a LULA elevator?

LULA stands for Limited-Use Limited-Application. It is a 1,400 lb. capacity commercial elevator specifically designed to be installed in a commercial construction, circumstance.
LULA elevators take up less space, require less overhead, and require a shallower pit than commercial passenger elevators. They also use single phase power as opposed to the 3 phase power that is required on a commercial passenger elevator.
LU/LA elevator pits only require 14" of depth as compared to 4' for a passenger elevator.
These less-involved construction requirements save your project money, making LULA elevators perfect for churches, schools, and businesses that are trying to use existing space to accommodate an elevator.
