Accessible Elevator Control
by Abilia (GEWA) AB
Imagine an accessible integrated residence, a public library, and a hospice for children.
Accessible Integrated Residence Public Library Hospice for Children
All three of these buildings were given the chance to provide independent access to those who use them.
A way to make buildings completely accessible is with the installation of GEWA Infra-Link infrared remote
control of elevator and door access systems by Abilia AB. The remote control system offers complete
independence and total floor access to those with severe physical disabilities.
Buildings can be made completely accessible by the installation of GEWA Infra-Link infrared remote
control of the elevator access systems. With a one-button remote control unit, the elevator can be
summoned on each floor and the destination floor called once inside the car. Optional remote control units
are available with more buttons for those who have the capability to use them. And there are transmitters
available for computers and AAC devices.
No one ever seems to be around when you need to call the
elevator. Even in busy facilities like the medical complex in this
photo, there is the need for independent access to the elevator.
The remote control system
offers complete independence
and total floor access to those
with severe physical
disabilities. Often, the car is
too small to turn to face the
control panel. One drives in
and backs out—which means
that the controls are
inaccessible. That’s no
problem when Infra-Link
controls are installed — just
drive into the car and make the required selection—even if the receiver
is behind you. They are that powerful, and do not need to be aimed
directly at the receiver.
From the outside, there isn't much to show about the remote control
system. At most there is a small receiver that is mounted on the wall.
Some installations have the receiver hidden behind panels and all that
shows is the unobtrusive infrared window.
