About colored stickers<br />

and elevators<br />

For those of you who has recently<br />

been in an elevator in Turkey, we are<br />

sure you have noticed the colored<br />

sticker seen inside most elevators.<br />

But what does the different colors mean<br />

and exactly what are they symbolizing?<br />

Yellow Label<br />

Less serious faults that must be<br />

corrected within a period of 60 days.<br />

Blue Label<br />

For defects labelled blue there is a<br />

period of 12 month of corrections.<br />

That is a good question, so we did a little<br />

research on elevator controls for your<br />

safety.<br />

All elevators must be regularly checked<br />

to ensure that they are all safe to use.<br />

The faults detected in these controls are<br />

classified into red, yellow, green and blue<br />

according to their degree and a visible label<br />

is affixed inside the elevator cabinet.<br />

Red Label<br />

If the irregularities identified and labelled<br />

as red are not corrected within 30 days,<br />

you will risk that your elevator will be<br />

sealed off by the municipality.<br />

Green Label<br />

The green label means that no defects<br />

what so ever has been found and that<br />

your elevator is in a perfect condition.<br />

If the elevator has not yet been asesed<br />

and no labels are seen, you should<br />

contact an authorized elevator company<br />

as soon as possible and request your<br />

elevators to have periodic inspection<br />

carried out.<br />

Finally we want to remind you that<br />

using the stairs now and is very<br />

healthy and recommendable no<br />

matter what color the sticker of<br />

the elevator is...<br />
