A lift, or an elevator is a method of vertical transportation, common among all factions in the Halo Universe.
Forerunner
Lifts are commonplace on almost every Forerunner installation, including the Halo Array.
Forerunner lifts vary greatly in design depending on their purpose and location. For example, those around the control center were small and had six corners, while those around the Library where big enough for a Pelican to land on. It should also be known that almost all the lifts seen in Halo: Combat Evolved, except the really large ones, had a transparent floor. On Installation 04, there were plentiful lifts around the area of the Control Room, but also on other locations around the installation. Forerunner lifts have several different methods of propulsion. How exactly they work, is not always clear. Most lifts move without apparent propulsion systems at all, some have beams of energy supporting them, such as the lifts on the Ark.
Forerunner lifts can be seen in the following levels:
Humans
Lifts are used universally by the UNSC in all kinds of structures, including starships and space stations. Human-made lifts are most often traditional in design. They're usually powered by conventional methods, such as cables or tracks.
Human-made lifts appear in the following levels:
Covenant
- Main article: Gravity Lift
The Covenant don't use traditional lifts at all. Instead, they utilize a much more advanced type of technology, Gravity Lifts. These devices create anti-gravity fields, which can safely move objects vertically without any kind of moving platform.
The Covenant use gravity lifts in their cities and structures, such as High Charity. They're also used in Covenant starships to transport troops and materials to a surface safely. In addition, they're used in smaller pieces of equipment, such as Portable Gravity Lifts or Deployable Lookout Towers.
Usable Covenant Gravity lifts appear in the following levels (Not counting minor appearances):
