Using a Shabbat Elevator
Question
Hello, honorable Rabbi. I am a disabled child and I want to go to the synagogue. For this, I need to be taken down with the chair either before Shabbat, and I cannot do it before Shabbat. Is it permissible for me to use the Shabbat elevator?
Answer
Answer of the Gaon, Rabbi A. Fried, shlita
You are permitted to use the Shabbat elevator with the assistance of a non-Jew.
