Full Definition
Accessibility lift standards define minimum requirements for elevators serving persons with disabilities (PwD) and persons with reduced mobility (PRM). Key standards: EN 81-70 and ISO 4190-6. Requirements cover car dimensions (min 1100x1400 mm for wheelchair), door width (min 900 mm), button height (900–1200 mm AFF), Braille/tactile markings, audible announcements, and levelling accuracy (±10 mm). Compliance is mandatory in public buildings in most jurisdictions.
