Elevator lighting makes the elevator cars (cabs) and surrounding areas feel safe and welcoming. These lights are crucial for safety, comfort, and aesthetics because they impact everything from visibility to the overall rider experience. Explore our selection of quality lighting for elevators and lifts from top brands like Schindler.
What is Elevator Lighting?
Passengers need to be able to see where they’re going. Elevator lights can include cabin lighting, arrival lamps, and emergency backup systems. The lights help individuals safely enter and exit the elevator.
Lighting also supports safety by guiding movement during power cuts or when doors open and close. It’s part of the broader electrical system, connected to other components, like indicators and control boards. When the lights fail, the cab can feel unsafe or out of order. Keeping them in working shape makes a real difference, whether the elevator is in a hotel, office, or residential building.
Emergency Lighting
An elevator emergency light turns on automatically when power is lost to help passengers stay safe and calm. These lights are usually built into the ceiling or panel and are designed to last long enough for people to exit safely. Like any light, emergency lights can break or burn out. Without them, even a short outage can create confusion or panic inside the cab.

Car Lighting
Elevator car lighting includes the main lights inside the cab. The lights are usually overhead panels or built-in ceiling fixtures.

Tachometers
An elevator tachometer tracks how fast the elevator is moving. It sends signals to the control system so the motor can adjust speed and stop smoothly at each floor. When a tachometer isn’t working, the ride can become jerky or unpredictable. Sometimes the lift stops operating altogether.
Need parts that match different elevator systems and setups? Replace your worn or faulty tachometer. One of the most popular types is the Kone Tachometer. We also have several other Kone options to choose from. Shop for tachometer belts and wheels to complete your repair. We carry parts that fit a variety of models.
Basket Fans
A basket fan helps keep air moving inside the elevator cab. It’s mounted near the top of the lift and works quietly in the background to keep the space more comfortable. A basket fan is a fan inside an enclosure. Shop for a universal Lift cross-flow fan here at Lift-Spares. These fans are generally low-cost, low-maintenance, and energy-efficient. If an elevator fan stops working, the air usually gets stale and stuffy, making everyone in the elevator uncomfortable.
