Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to an elevator installation comprising an elevator car (2) having at least one clearance limiter (30) permanently projecting outwards from the car (2). The clearance limiter (30) partially bridges a gap (G) between the car (2) and a shaft wall (12) and therefore decreases the likelihood of service personnel falling through the gap into the shaft (10).
