Elevator Modernization

There are several benefits for elevator modernization..


Our modernization solutions can be specifically designed to meet your requirements. We want to boost your elevator's efficiency, appearance, and comfort. Modernizing an elevator can involve small improvements and upgrades, or a complete overhaul of your elevator system.

Special Upgrades

Your building is unique, and because your building property is unlike other buildings, you might need special upgrades that pertains to your building's specific architecture. Even if your building has an older system in place, we can give your cabs a smoother ride, or a lobby area in need of better lighting.

With any modernization project, cost efficiency is a consideration, and one in which contains a strategic component. Almost any small problem can be fixed and upgraded during the same service period for reasons of time and cost-efficiency. Fixing and upgrading at the same time is easily accomplished with cab fixtures, lobby lights, panels, paint and general cleaning.

It might seem like modernization only implies aesthetics, but it can also mean upgrades that take place in sections that are behind the scenes. These sections are typically areas that are inside a control box, engine room, a hoistway shaft, or hoistway floor. Although building occupants cannot see these areas of a lift system, modernization efforts can create a better ride experience for them.

An elevator system has areas that are at the highest level to the lowest level. The pit is the area just under the lowest level of the structure where the cab can rest when it's fully extended. In contrast, the overhead is the area just above the highest level of the structure, providing a space for the cab to rest when it's fully extended on or above the top floor.

Whatever your project desires are, it's all about improving the appearance of your lobby and cab, as well as your elevator's system to the latest safety and accessibility standards.

General Modernization

For older buildings, your elevator may be aging to the point where many of your components are in need of replacement due to obsolete components. Various parts of an elevator system will expire or become obsolete because of advances in technology. Modernizing your elevator can improve the safety and reliability of your equipment and increase the value of your building.

Hydraulics

Hydraulic modernization involves upgrade considerations for the core components and equipment of your elevator system.

Traction Elevator Modernization

Typical modernization projects for traction elevators include the controller, motors, door equipment, brakes, ropes and more. The range can be large because replacing parts and equipment for an elevator in a large building can add a lot of costs in parts and labor. Older traction elevators may need to be brought up to code, however, some of the parts and procedures may be optional.

We can modernize your traction elevator, whether geared or gearless, and clean, inspect, and update the entire body of the elevator. Like a hydraulic unit, the cost to modernize a traction elevator can often come down to how much of the elevator needs to be replaced. Our cost reduction strategy involves a professional checklist to make it clear as to the work and cost.

Cab Modernization

You might think that a cab upgrade is not really important, and in some cases it might not seem necessary since it's not a requirement by law. So if your budget won't allow for the extra cost, then you can remove the cab upgrade entirely. However, there's still the possibility to install a more affordable, standard elevator cab interior. While custom cab interiors might be too expensive, we can offer you a less-expensive, standard interior package. The standard package will reduce material cost and installation time.

Simple upgrades for a clean, modern look..

A fresh coat of paint, a few replacement parts, and general cleaning might be all it takes to upgrade to a clean, modern look. Some of your individual elevator components might need replacement, but some might not. And in this case, if a part can be retained, We will save you the cost of a new part and reduce total cost for the overall elevator modernization process.

Don't let money be the biggest driving force for consideration. We'll work with you so you can feel confident that a modernization project is something you can feel comfortable with.
