Abstract: A rope storage unit for storing an elevator rope during transportation and/or installation of the elevator rope includes a rope reel, formed by a rope wound in a spiral form and having a central axis; and a support frame provided with an inner space inside which the rope reel is positioned supported by the support frame such that it can in use be rotated in the inner space for unwinding the rope. The rope is a rod having a straight form when in rest state and elastically bendable away from the straight form, the rope being under substantial bending tension in the spiral form, and wherein the support frame comprises three or more rotatable support rollers delimiting the inner space and surrounding radially the rope reel. A method for installing an elevator rope implements the rope storage unit.

Abstract: A method for installing a hoisting rope into an elevator system includes providing a rope reel storing a hoisting rope; and thereafter unwinding a section of the hoisting rope from the rope reel; and arranging the section of the hoisting rope unwound from the rope reel to pass from the rope reel to a rim of a drive wheel of the elevator and around it such that it rests against said rim; and thereafter rotating the drive wheel with a motor for driving the hoisting rope to run around the drive wheel.
