Tenants cannot agree on whether to install elevators in old houses

An elevator is an electric motor-driven vertical elevator equipped with a box-shaped pod for transporting people on multiple floors or transporting goods. The reporter learned from various streets yesterday that he has received numerous consultations and applications from residents in successive days. At present, there are six elevators installed in some cities that have been completed and put into use and old ones under construction. From the trapezoidal type, the elevators only reach the public platform and an independent external sightseeing elevator. What are the advantages and disadvantages of these two kinds of trapezoidal styles? The reporter interviewed the old house to install the elevator construction unit. They gave some professional suggestions for reference by the citizens in need.

It is difficult to install elevators in old houses

Who wants to be safe? Who pays?

The installation of at least 20 elevators per year is Jiang Keqing's estimate of the Dazhou market; but two units have been installed in two years, and it is a cold reality. The general manager of Sichuan Wanxiang Elevator Co., Ltd. is still looking for a point of view: Sooner or later, the elevator installation business in the old building will “explode”.

Jiang Keqing’s self-confidence comes from the “difficultly crowded Hong Kong” state of Dazhou. On both sides of the street, high-rise buildings on the 12th and 13th floors are barely visible; the buildings and the building are tightly packed so that some aisles are only narrow enough. Bicycle passes. However, unlike Hong Kong, most of the old buildings that live in inhabitants do not have elevators.

Li He, deputy director of the Housing Authority of Dazhou City, introduced that before the introduction of the National Design Standard for Housing in 1999, the local building was basically not equipped with elevators. “Now people are old and their living standards have increased, and demand for elevators has become stronger.” Xiao Jinsong, the deputy director of the city's urban and rural planning bureau, estimates that there are nearly 5,000 high-rise residential buildings without elevators in the city. Theoretically, there are additional installation requirements; however, of the over 100 applications submitted to the Bureau in the past two years, the actual installation has been approved. No more than 10.

On January 8, the reporter walked into the city to build a community mahjong house in the Guanjiayuan community for more than 15 years. As soon as he talked about installing an elevator, neighbors and neighbors won't even fight with mahjong, and they quickly surrounded it. "Every time you buy rice, you have to climb for half an hour (floor), and you have to go home for another half an hour to ease off." Chen Liangcui, who lives on the 10th floor and is 50 years old this year, lamented. In the 19th neighborhood, he said that if someone takes the lead, he is willing to pay for the elevator.

Dun Jie, an intermediary sales agent for Amoy Street Real Estate in Horseshoe Street, said that if a lift is used in a second-hand high-rise apartment in the same location, the transaction price per square metre is about 1,000 yuan higher.

Who will approve? Who will manage?

However, there are many applications and less approvals. "I don't want to approve. There really is no way." Xiao Jinsong reluctantly said, "You know what kind of departments are going to approve the installation of elevators? Even I don't know." At present, there are no corresponding elevators for existing houses. Management approach. In 2014, our province introduced the technical standard “Technical Regulations for the Addition and Modification of Existing Building Elevators in Sichuan Province”, but who will manage and how? There is still no standard answer.

The relevant person in charge of the Provincial Housing and Construction Department stated that due to the construction safety involved in the installation of elevators, the local construction and construction departments have become the leading and often the only “management” agencies.

In Dazhou City, the city's urban and rural planning bureau is responsible for the implementation of the examination and approval function. “Actually, this originally involved several departments.” Ma Yi, chief planner of the Bureau, believes that installing elevators may occupy fire-fighting channels and involve areas such as quality and safety. However, relevant departments are not involved in this matter. The reporter successively called the Dazhou Municipal Public Security Fire Brigade and the Dazhou Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision. Both said that it was not their responsibility to install elevators in old houses.

The above mentioned request for installation of lifts by Luo Xiaomei and the residents was not approved by the Urban and Rural Planning Bureau because the space between the buildings was too narrow. After installing elevators in old houses, municipal roads may be occupied.

MaWing frankly stated that because there is no clear approval process and no other departments are involved, only all possible laws and regulations that may be involved are included in the assessment scope: land ownership, urban landscape, fire protection, and construction safety... “Of course, this is May raise the 'threshold', but it's not so difficult to save."

Nanjing, Guangdong and other places have introduced corresponding management methods. Xiao Jinsong suggested that our province should also introduce such measures as soon as possible, clear management units and handling procedures.

  

Who will lead? Who coordinates?

Xiao Jinsong believes that the "elevator dream" card in more residential districts is divided.

"Uncle Wang's house on the 2nd floor is low on the floor and does not want to pay more; on the 6th floor, a single mother has no money; on the 8th floor, No. 1, the whole family does not live here, and the house is rented to a working person..." The residents of Heye Street, Tongchuan District Liu Guangzhu has been running for two years for An Elevator. He has repeatedly run into the wall and has made no progress so far.

The 2nd unit of Changshou Street District, Dachuan District. The elevator shaft is located close to the outer wall of the corridor. Li Tingwei, the first person on the 10th floor, lifted the elevator and pulled out a blue card at the scanning location. Then he chose the floor. “The residents who have paid for the money have the card and the card can operate the elevator.” The unit has a total of 20 households on 10 floors, and eventually 12 households have paid for it; after consultation, the house is one storey higher, residents pay about 6,000 yuan more, and the final assembly cost is 470,000 yuan. Daily operation of electricity and maintenance costs , shared by 12 households.

This seemingly feasible model, in Li Tingwei's opinion, is still flawed in its promotion. “It takes time and effort and it is too demanding for the leader.” The owner of the furniture business said frankly that the coordination work lasted for two years. Turn yourself from a boss to a “salesman”—a family knocks on the door and asks residents to ask for a meeting with a store that may be affected. But it takes less than half the effort. “If there are communities and sub-district offices to lead the coordination, the effect will be much better.” Li Tingwei suggested.

Article 76 of China’s “Property Law” stipulates that the reconstruction and reconstruction of buildings and their ancillary facilities shall be subject to two “two-thirds” agreement: the total number of owners, total floor area occupied, and total building area are all three. Two or more can be.

"But the 'one third of the minority' cannot be ignored," said Li Zhi, a lawyer at Sichuan's expansion letter law firm. On a 10-storey basis, residents from the 1st to the 3rd floor count the "born" minority: installing elevators. They are not interested; but retrofitting may infringe on their lighting and ventilation rights. If the two "two-thirds" are adopted for retrofitting, although it is not against the law, it is more resistant.

  

Adding suggestions

Commercial Residential Housing

This kind of residence is often a common platform shared by multiple buildings, and there are usually multiple emergency exits. Through communication with the fire control and planning departments, one of the firefighting passages that is suitable for reconstruction can be selected as the well area. It is recommended that the installed elevator arrive at the platform.

Advantages: The largest number of beneficiaries is the most average and the most ideal and the safest way.

Inadequate: Not applicable to residential buildings where some low-level businesses are too dense.

Single-family house

General installation of sightseeing elevators, the use of tempered glass materials will not substantially affect the lighting. By connecting a corridor with each floor, it is convenient for residents on all floors to access, and the practicality is closest to the general built-in elevator.

Advantages: short construction period, beautiful and convenient, practical, close to the built-in elevator. Basically, no civil engineering works are involved.

Inadequacies: The public areas such as green belts may be affected, and the proportion of funds raised between floors may affect the success or failure of retrofitting.

Note: The installation of elevators in multi-storey houses must meet the following requirements: Ensure that the fire exits must be reserved, and there is enough room in the well area and must be within the community.

Editor's summary: The above is related to the householder's introduction to whether it is difficult to reach an agreement on whether or not to install an elevator in an old house. I hope to help friends who have this need! For more information, please continue to pay attention to our website, follow-up will show more exciting content.
