Lift placement needs a building-specific review. Stairwell dimensions, load-bearing structures, the entrance and outdoor space determine whether the shaft can be inside or outside.
Local building control assesses the permit requirements. The board should compare options and costs before a general meeting decision so owners can weigh the alternatives.
