When does this option suit you?
- 1
A villa or private home lift
In a villa where the users know one another, a manual landing door works efficiently and suits the available space without adding complexity.
- 2
A narrow shaft or shallow pit
Swing doors need no horizontal track for sliding panels, which suits a shaft where the clearance on either side is too narrow for a fully automatic sliding system.
- 3
Replacing worn doors on a small building
On a low-rise building where the original doors have worn out, semi-automatic may be the practical replacement option, something the survey confirms after looking at the existing shaft structure.

What sets this area apart
As Salam contains residential units with small shops and offices on lower floors, creating varied lift use throughout the day. Semi-automatic doors balance ease of use with space efficiency, suiting many of these traditional buildings. Confirming system suitability requires an initial site inspection by the team to ensure door compatibility with hallway widths and entrances.
As Salam is a central Riyadh district of medium-rise residential and small commercial buildings built closely together.
Most buildings in As Salam range from four to six storeys with limited frontage space before lift shafts.

Questions about Semi-automatic doors
Is a manual landing door safe?
Yes, the manual landing door works together with the automatic cabin door as one system. The lift cannot move unless the cabin door is fully closed, which ensures the lift never runs when either door is not properly shut.
Does this system suit every lift type?
No, it depends on the existing shaft dimensions, the landing opening structure and the lift type. The on-site survey is what confirms whether this option is technically possible at your location, and that cannot be determined before the visit.
How long does the automatic cabin door last before it needs attention?
The door's service life depends on how many trips the lift makes each day, how well it was set up initially and whether it is maintained regularly. Routine maintenance extends its life and catches any wear before it leads to a breakdown.
Can doors be replaced without changing the rest of the lift?
In many cases yes, if the machine and controller are in good condition the doors can be changed on their own. However the survey may find that the controller needs a small adjustment to work with the new system, and that is determined on site.
Can someone open the manual landing door without first calling the cabin to that floor?
No, the landing door has a mechanical lock that only releases when the cabin is level with that floor. This prevents access to the open shaft when the cabin is elsewhere and is one of the fundamental safety requirements for this door type.
Does a semi-automatic system increase future maintenance costs?
No, maintenance costs are similar. The mechanism is simpler than a fully automatic door, meaning fewer parts that can fail and easier servicing over time.
Can we upgrade our existing lift to semi-automatic doors?
Yes, we can upgrade older lifts by fitting new semi-automatic door systems. Our team inspects the shaft and existing mechanisms and outlines the steps needed in an initial visit.
