Configure the lift from hoistway through drive, cab and doors

Travel, drive type, cab packages and door interfaces belong on one validated configuration — your catalogue limits during selling, not a universal layout engine.

Mercura does not certify against local elevator codes. It runs your manufacturer-defined hoistway, pit, overhead and option rules while sales is still laying out the shaft.

Interactive demo

Configure a passenger lift the way an applications engineer would

This is a live Mercura CPQ configurator - not a mock-up. Size the hoistway, pick traction or hydraulic drive, select cab and door packages, and watch the rules engine validate pit, overhead, shaft clearance, and fire-service logic while pricing updates in real time. The same guided flow turns weeks of layout iterations into a few accurate minutes.

Running against a live Mercura tenant. Products, prices, and rules shown here are an illustrative AscendLine catalogue built to demonstrate the platform - your own lift lines, pricing, and engineering logic would drive a production deployment.

Configuration chain

From hoistway survey to a valid lift quote

Shaft, drive and cab constraints narrow options before the quote leaves.

  1. 01

    Hoistway

    Existing or planned shaft dimensions set cab and rail bounds.

  2. 02

    Travel

    Floor count and rise drive machine class and rope or jack selection.

  3. 03

    Drive

    Traction or hydraulic family from manufacturer matrices.

  4. 04

    Cab

    Size, capacity and finish packages within published weight limits.

  5. 05

    Doors

    Landing widths and entrance interfaces from catalogue rules.

  6. 06

    Pit / overhead

    Clearance checks against encoded manufacturer limits.

  7. 07

    Fire-service review

    Review gates when your rules flag them — not code certification.

  8. 08

    Quote

    Complete lift package priced in-session.

Why quoting gets hard

Why lift quotes need site callbacks

Cab vs shaft

Cab footprint conflicts with rail or beam placement — found after site survey.

Pit or overhead shortfall

Travel exceeds pit depth or headroom allowance in revision.

Door interface mismatch

Landing door package incompatible with selected cab entrance.

Before / after

The same technical sale, a different commercial path

Before

  • Shaft dimensions in email
  • Drive type chosen from habit
  • Cab finish guessed without weight check
  • Pit and overhead verified offline
  • Quote rebuilt after layout review

With Mercura CPQ

  • Hoistway and travel captured first
  • Drive and cab filtered by manufacturer rules
  • Pit, overhead and doors checked in flow
  • Fire-service flags surface when encoded
  • Valid lift package quoted in the same session
