A method of constructing an elevator, the elevator including a hoistway, an elevator car, a first movable support structure in the hoistway above the elevator car, for supporting the elevator car with a roping, and a roof structure, separate from the movable support structure, in the hoistway above the support structure, where the elevator car is used for transporting passengers and/or goods, and thereafter the first movable support structure is lifted higher in the hoistway, and thereafter the elevator car is used again for transporting passengers and/or goods. The method includes lifting the roof structure higher in the hoistway so as to make more room below the roof structure, the roof structure being a movable roof structure, and in that the movable roof structure is lifted in the hoistway taking support for the lift from a second movable support structure mounted in the hoistway above the roof structure.
A method in constructing an elevator, in which the elevator includes at least one elevator car movable in a hoistway, a first movable support structure, a separately movable roof structure, and a lifting arrangement, the first movable support structure being separate from the at least one elevator car, in the hoistway above the at least one elevator car, the first movable support structure being configured to support said at least one elevator car, the separately movable roof structure being, separate from the first movable support structure, in the hoistway above the first movable support structure, and the lifting arrangement including a second movable support structure mounted in the hoistway at a first mounting position above the separately movable roof structure, the method comprising:
