Here you can learn about planningPlanning of escalators. Escalators are mainly used in large buildings where many people need to be transported vertically. This is the case in shopping centres or railway stations. The expected number of people to be transported determines the width and speed of the escalator. Speeds of 0.5 m/s and 0.65 m/s are possible. Higher speeds of up to 0.75 m/s are permitted in accordance with EN 115-1EN 115-1. For example, the escalators in the London underground have a speed of 0.75 m/s. The escalators are manufactured in widths of 800 mm, 1000 mm or 1100 mm.
