Summary:The invention relates to a method of controlling a lift installation with several lift cages (A--F) in a building or the like, the storeys of which are subdivided into several zones (Z1, Z2, Z3), wherein travel orders are allocated to the lift cages. In order in the case of a lift installation to carry out an effective zonal control without disadvantage to user groups to thereby be separated it is proposed in accordance with the invention that there is no allocation to a lift cage, which has just been allocated a travel order out of or into one of the zones (Z1, Z2, Z3), of any travel orders out of or into another of the zones (Z1, Z2, Z3) and that in the case of a call (nRZ2, NRZ2) after a new travel order the number of free lift cages (fr) is compared with the number of still unallocated or still unserved zones (Z3) and the allocation of the new call (nRZ2, NRZ2) is carried out in dependence on the comparison result.
