An escalator is one of the most important vertical transportation systems in public and commercial spaces such as shopping malls, airports, metro stations, and office complexes. Compliance with global escalator standards is not just a matter of technical specification—it directly impacts passenger safety, equipment lifespan, and long-term maintenance costs.
Lion Elevator and Lion Escalator, as the official representatives of Lion Lift in Iran, UAE, Oman, and Iraq, design, supply, and install escalators and escalator parts in full compliance with EN115 (Europe) and ASME A17.1 (North America) standards. Our commitment to quality ensures that every escalator we deliver meets international safety requirements and delivers long-lasting performance.
Global escalator standards define safety measures, performance requirements, and manufacturing guidelines that guarantee safe and reliable operation. The most recognized ones include:
EN115 (European Standard) – Safety of escalators and moving walks.
ASME A17.1 / CSA B44 – American and Canadian safety codes for elevators and escalators.
GB 16899 – Chinese safety code for escalators.
By adhering to these standards, we ensure:
Maximum passenger safety.
Extended service life of components.
Reduced maintenance costs.
Consistent performance in heavy-duty applications.
An escalator is a combination of mechanical and electronic systems working together for safe and smooth passenger movement. The key components include:
Steps – Made from high-strength aluminum with anti-slip grooves for passenger safety.
Handrail – Durable rubber or polyurethane belt moving in sync with the steps for stability.
Step Chain – Transfers motion from the drive motor to the steps, designed for high load capacity.
Drive Motor – High-efficiency motor providing smooth and quiet operation.
Control System – Manages speed, start/stop, and safety protocols.
Safety Brake – Prevents uncontrolled movement in emergency situations.
Safety Sensors & Switches – Detect abnormal conditions and trigger automatic stop.
