Continuous movement / A separate collection

Keep people
moving.

Escalators and moving walks for commercial,
retail and public environments.

Escalators at K11 MUSEA framed by gold-toned sculptural columns, illuminated ceilings and living green walls

Movement, without interruption

A natural flow.
A connected building.

Continuous passenger circulation requires a different approach from an elevator. Review rise, inclination, available space, landing transitions and passenger flow together to create a coherent route through the building.

01 / Escalators

A link between
levels.

Explore escalator arrangements for vertical circulation between adjacent levels, coordinated with the architecture and expected passenger movement.

02 / Moving walks

Make distance
feel closer.

Review horizontal or inclined moving-walk requirements for longer passenger routes. The final product arrangement and application are confirmed in technical planning.

Plan the whole route

The angle is only
the beginning.

01

Rise & inclination

Coordinate vertical rise, inclination and available horizontal space. Where 30° or 35° concepts are considered, suitability must be confirmed against the actual project requirements.

02

Landings & transitions

Review entrance and exit space, landing alignment and surrounding passenger circulation.

03

Balustrades & details

Coordinate handrails, balustrades, lighting and surrounding finishes as one consistent design.

Detail visuals are illustrative. Final equipment, dimensions and safety arrangements are confirmed for the selected system.

Before the next step

A few useful
answers.

Begin with the floor-to-floor rise, available building envelope and expected passenger route. The layout and technical arrangement are then reviewed for the project.
