• Lightweight honeycomb downlight ceilings with hanging attachment
• The small hanging channel is bolted to the canopy. Simply hook the ceiling to the hanging channel and put in a pinning bolt to secure it.
• This design eliminates the need for a lift or an extra crew for ceiling installation.
• Lighter (two-piece minimum) canopies
• MEI’s returns and jambs are held into the transom by tabs instead of bolts.
• Simply insert the tab through the slot and bend the tab as shown. The tabs are engineered to hold the pieces together tightly.
• The corners of each MEI cab are held together with a keyslot joint. The mechanic no longer needs to crawl between the cab and the hoistway wall to assemble the cab. This creates a safer work environment for the mechanic and reduces installation time.
