LWL Clutch and Interlock

Reduce risk. Maintain compliance. Maximize availability.

An astounding 58% of elevator zone locks either don’t work or have been bypassed, according to a study conducted in 2022 by a major US elevator association. Traditional zone locks increase risk when they are either improperly installed or circumvented.

Introducing the Retrofittable GAL™ Car Door Interlock and LWL Clutch

The LWL Clutch and Car Door Interlock package from Vantage adds another level of protection to your elevators. It combines the functionality of a gate switch and a zone lock into one device, lessening the chance of human error and circumvention when it comes to keeping your car doors closed during operation.

Designed to work with the GAL™ MOVFR II Harmonic Door Operator and standard MOH and MOCPH Hoistway interlock packages, the LWL Clutch and Car Door Interlock package can be retrofitted to existing installations quickly, easily—and inexpensively.
