When is a panoramic lift the right choice?
- 1
An open atrium worth showing off
When an atrium rises through several floors, a glass cabin moving through it turns the interior design into a living scene that draws every visitor's eye.
- 2
An exterior facade you want to highlight
Fitting a panoramic lift on the outer facade gives the building a distinctive visual identity, with the moving cabin making it a presence in the streetscape.
- 3
A project seeking a different visitor experience
In hotels, retail centres and upscale residential complexes, the panoramic lift ride becomes part of the place's experience, not merely a journey between floors.

What sets this area apart
Al Makal contains a mix of older buildings and recently updated projects, where building owners sometimes replace their lift with a modern panoramic version as part of the building's upgrade. This kind of modernisation requires careful assessment of existing space and structures, and study of whether the current shaft can be enlarged or reshaped. Installing a panoramic lift in an older building presents different challenges than a new project, because work must happen while the building stays in use.
Al Makal in central Riyadh features a mix of older buildings and recently refurbished blocks following comprehensive renovation.
Lift upgrade projects in older Al Makal buildings typically require feasibility study since the older architectural spaces may not accommodate a panoramic cabin at the same dimensions as the previous lift.

Questions about Panoramic elevators
Can a panoramic lift be installed in an existing building?
It depends on the building's structure and the available space. Some existing buildings allow it on the facade or inside an atrium, and the site survey is what determines feasibility and the exact requirements for each case.
What is the difference between a round and a square cabin?
A round cabin gives a wide-angle view in all directions and suits open atriums, while a square cabin fits modern architectural lines and works well on facades and geometrically designed spaces. The final choice is confirmed after seeing the site.
Is the glass safe in Riyadh's climate?
The glass specification appropriate for the location, whether for sun exposure, heat or an exterior position, is determined during the site survey. We do not recommend a specific specification before assessing each case separately.
How long is the warranty on a panoramic lift?
We offer a warranty of up to 15 years. The exact term is set in the supply and installation contract according to the project's nature, and it covers the Italian machine and the operating system.
Does a panoramic lift need different maintenance from a conventional one?
The mechanical and electrical systems are maintained in the same way as any lift, but the glass structure requires periodic inspection to check its joints and surfaces. The maintenance schedule is set after installation according to each site's particular conditions.
Can an old building's lift be upgraded to a panoramic model?
Yes, but it requires an initial survey to check the existing space and building structure. The team visits to determine whether the upgrade fits the current shaft or needs building modifications.
Does upgrading the lift mean closing the building during work?
It depends on the building condition and the upgrade scope. Simple work can happen at set times, but major modifications may need coordination with residents or occupants to minimise disruption.
