The Importance Of Elevator CladdingThe inside of an elevator is a place where form meets function. Elevator cladding should blend aesthetics and safety features to create the right impression for staff and visitors. Nigma is an industry leader, bringing you high-quality cladding that’s both beautiful and effective.

What Is Elevator Cladding?

In simple terms, elevator cladding is everything a passenger sees when they are inside the elevator. It’s what creates a visually pleasing experience without compromising on safety or performance. As well as protecting the elevator walls from damage, well-chosen cladding will reflect the brand image of your organization and building.

Nigma offers a wide range of attractive but durable materials. we put particular emphasis on customisation. This isn’t simply limited to matching colour schemes but can even reflect the architectural and design styles of your building. As well as the cladding, Nigma extends the customisation to the architraves and full wall jambs, which make up the frame on each floor around the doorway. 

Why Choose High-Quality Elevator Cladding?

Why Choose High-Quality Elevator CladdingThe right elevator cabin cladding makes using the elevator more comfortable and calming while creating the image you want to portray, whether that be striking, professional, luxury or playful. It helps avoid the common experience where a carefully crafted visual identity is shattered when a visitor steps into a boring, unwelcoming or cheap-looking elevator.

Choosing a professional supplier such as Nigma also means getting expertise in design and installation to give maximum protection for elevator surfaces. It reduces the risk of scratches and dents that undermine appearance and even leave people worried about a lack of maintenance and care.

Safety is also a big issue. Experienced installers such as Nigma know how to avoid compromising the safety or function of the elevator itself. They will also know the best options for handrails and other safety features that are consistent with the cladding’s image but are still fully functional.

It’s also a smart financial investment over the long term. As well as reducing maintenance costs, elevator cladding can contribute to the value of the building, whether you are leasing office space to commercial tenants or even selling the property.

Common Elevator Cladding Design Mistakes

At Nigma, we want our customers to make informed choices to get the right elevator cladding for their needs and tastes. With that in mind, here are four of the most common mistakes we’ve identified.

  1. Focusing on aesthetics and ignoring durability.
    An elevator cabin interior is touched or leaned on hundreds of times a day. Less durable cladding can quickly develop scuffs and more serious physical damage that looks ugly and undermines the visual image that cladding creates.

  2. Not planning for maintenance.
    Too many installers choose and fit materials without thinking about how the cladding and components such as control panels need to be maintained. Anything that slows down maintenance operations or requires refitting or adjustment can extend the time an elevator is out of action. Our low-maintenance options avoid this problem.

  3. Not customizing cladding.
    The interior of a lift should be as much a part of your building’s unified visual appeal as the entranceway or lobby. A good installer will help you choose cladding that complements your corporate image and your building’s unique feel.

  4. Compromising on safety.
    There’s no room for risk when it comes to elevator cladding materials. A quality and trustworthy supplier will always ensure that they use products and materials that comply with all relevant safety codes.
