Our hybrid access range, whist travelling at a lower speed, offers much of the functionality of a conventional passenger lift. With a fully enclosed cabin and automatic ‘one touch’ controls. The IL2 is designed to fit in only a 150mm pit and 2750mm headroom. In keeping with BS EN 81-41 the IL2 has a drive system designed for low use.

To comply with vertical lifting platform standards BS EN 81-41 a maximum speed of 0.15m/s is permitted. To place this into perspective please see illustration below:
| Floors Served | Typical floor to floor travel (mm) | Approximate journey time (seconds) |
| Ground to first | 2800 | 19 |
| Ground to second | 5600 | 38 |
| Ground to third* | 8400 | 57 |
* On the basis that the lift is already at the 3rd floor when it is called from ground, this would equate to a total journey time of nearly 2 minutes if travelling back up to the 3rd floor.
Traction lifts feature a control drive which is integrated into the lift shaft, and don’t need separate (non fire-rated) control cabinets like a hydraulic lift. Traction drive lifts provide a more environmentally friendly, energy efficient solution when compared with hydraulic lifts.
