Typically buildings with escalators will also have elevators too though, explicitly to allow for people who won't/can't use the escalator.

- makomk 9y agoTypically buildings with paternosters will also have elevators too, the paternoster just decreases the total amount of floor area that has to be used ferrying people up and down. In the one I saw, the elevator was literally on the wall opposite the paternoster. Disabled people aren't the only ones who can't use paternosters; they're also unsuitable for moving bulky or heavy items between floors.
