Infills
Infills are important, they are designed to prevent children from climbing between
the balustrades and being pulled up or down an escalator by the handrail. Infills are fitted between the balustrades of adjoining escalators.
Emergency Stop Posts provide clear and easy access to an emergency stop button. Situated at the entry and exit of the escalator/walkway, the emergency stop button is relocated to either the top or in front of the balustrades.
Visible for both sides, LED handrail lighting adds a stylish and elegant feature to glass balustrades, they provide uniform defused light along the length
of the handrail that can change colour.
LED Skirt Lighting
LED Skirt Lighting provides a uniform shadow free light along the length
of the skirting to help illuminate escalator steps and moving walkway pallets without shadows.

Comb Lights
Lighting provided at the comb level increases illumination, which further improves passenger safety around the step, as well as creating a visual effect.
Voice Annunciators provide important alerts to riders before they reach the end of the escalator/walkway. The alerts are essential
for visually impaired passengers by lowering tripping risks, beneficial for the safety of all passengers.
Yellow Step Demarcation lowers the risk of tripping and personal injury, particularly important for the visually impaired, to assist with judging of distance.
Neck Guards
Positioned above the escalator and fitted
to or suspended from
the ceiling or soffit of a higher escalator. They are designed to prevent passengers from trapping themselves between
the escalator handrail and wall or ceiling when travelling on an upwards- moving escalator.
