The “Zero-Gap” elevator shaft solution is finally here.

One of the most persistent on-site safety headaches in high-rise construction is elevator shaft protection.Traditional protection doors often need to be repeatedly removed and reinstalled during slab pouring and elevator installation — creating safety gaps, disrupting workflow, and consuming unnecessary labor.

On a Cardiovascular Center project at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine, undertaken by SECGC No. 11, the team introduced a practical innovation with real impact:

A retractable, adjustable elevator shaft protection system.

What makes it different?

● Fixed directly to both sides of the shaft opening — no welding or secondary drilling required.

● Sliding and height-adjustable to match construction progress.

● Installed once and used continuously from structural works through finishing stages.

● Eliminates the traditional “install-remove-reinstall” cycle.

Results across 150 elevator shaft openings:

✅ Continuous closed-loop safety protection

✅ 300 labor days saved

✅ 40% reduction in direct protection costs

✅ Galvanized perforated steel design — durable, rust-resistant, and reusable

This is a great example of how simple, repeatable site innovation can deliver major improvements in safety, efficiency, and sustainable construction.
