Lifts aren’t forever – eventually, they need a refresh

Creaks and groans. Inaccurate levelings. Jamming doors. Occasional “Out of Order” signs. If any of these sound familiar, your aging lift might be due for a refresh.

Around the 10-year mark, parts like door mechanisms, call buttons, and lighting need replacing. As the years rack up, it might require new lifting equipment, electrification, and doors – and at some stage, even a new lift car.

But it’s not just the years. It’s the mileage, too. Like with cars. Acting early helps you avoid costly surprises, reduce lifetime expenses, and keep your building running without interruptions. And the best part? A modern lift is more comfortable, more accessible, and more energy efficient.

Hear a lift speak its mind

Do you know a lift that sounds like it’s ready for an upgrade?

We’re modernising one lift for free – and it could be the one you use every day, or another that occasionally gets on your nerves. Just sign up to enter by November 16.

We’ll select the finalists for the public vote to choose the winner. The people who nominated these finalists will get rewarded too and we'll give a staycation for the one who submitted the winning lift.

Good luck!
