Building codes in other locales stipulate an elevator, all the way to the top, that is designed just for fire fighters as well as pressurized staircases that would keep smoke out.
Teistes paikades nõutakse, et hoones oleks spetsiaalselt tuletõrjujatele mõeldud lift, mis sõidaks kuni viimase korruseni, ning hermeetilised trepikojad, kuhu ei tuleks suitsu.
