Your elevator is at the heart of your building’s function and appeal – so allowing your system to become outdated is not an option. Our elevator experts know what it takes to keep people moving safely, and we’ve developed a three-step approach based on performance, reliability, aesthetics and code changes to determine if it is time to start planning for a modernization.

1. Performance Reliability

   System performance is key, and excessive shutdowns related to older equipment is a clear sign that it is time to start planning for a modernization. If more than 50 percent of your downtime is due to recurring issues or poor door quality, your next step should be to contact your local account representative and schedule a modernization consultation.

2. Technology and Code Compliance

   Technology, safety and code regulations are constantly evolving. As safety related events occur enhancing your unit’s dependability is a must. Complying with the latest code updates also increases the integrity of your elevator and building.

3. Improved aesthetics with code compliant fixtures

   Check for noisy, outdated, broken and worn-down fixtures. This can be a nightmare for passengers and a headache for mechanics tasked with replacing discontinued equipment. A modernization provides a quick and easy solution, outfitting your machines with upgraded fixtures, door equipment and buttons that will improve your building’s value, style and passenger experience.
