Modernisation and reconstruction of lifts

Modernisation and reconstruction of lifts mean the same thing in practice
In fact, there is no difference between the terms modernisation or reconstruction of lifts, as these terms are not supported by a precise legislative definition. Therefore, in practice, both terms are used even though they are the same thing. It is either a partial or a complete replacement of a lift, which is intended to eliminate, as far as possible, all safety risks according to the legislation in force today.
Reconstruction and modernisation of lifts with minimum downtime and low noise levels
We have been reconstructing or modernising lifts for 25 years and thanks to this many years of experience we are now able to design solutions that are tailored as closely as possible to the existing lift shaft with maximum use of space to the benefit of the largest possible cabin.
We place great emphasis not only on the choice of the technology used, but also on the speed of installation and tenant friendliness during the installation of the lift. Our aim is to reduce the downtime of the lift to a minimum. When installing the lift, we always choose technological processes that are both environmentally friendly and produce low noise and dust during construction.

In exceptional cases

Transport of disabled persons during lift shutdown
In emergency cases, we can also arrange for the transport of disabled persons during lift shutdown by alternative means (e.g. in case of a need to travel to a doctor, etc.).

How the elevators are being modernised

Under standard conditions, the completion time of the entire work "ON KEY" is 3 to 4 months from the signing of the contract.
1
Visit to the customer and measuring of the lift (or taking all the information necessary for the preparation of the initial study and indicative price proposal).
2
Preliminary discussion of the project with state institutions (building authority, sanitation, fire brigade, monuments, etc.).
3
Meeting with the customer to select and determine the design of the elevator from the submitted samples,
4
Preparation of a price offer and commercial and technical documentation including an indicative layout drawing of the elevator. The price offer also includes conditions for subsequent service.
All of the above activities are, as a rule, carried out without obligation and free of charge.
5
Signing of the work contract.
6
Preparation of complete project documentation.
7
Negotiating and securing a building permit.
8
Commencement of installation including:
  • Dismantling and ecological disposal of the old lift.
  • Construction or cladding of the elevator shaft (if part of the work).
  • Installation or assembly of the lift.
  • All construction work.
9
Before commissioning:
  • Commissioning of the lift.
  • Testing by an authorized person.
  • Noise tests carried out.
  • Obtaining the approval decision.
10
