Modernization
Modernization
Elevator service disruptions are minimally a hassle and often a major facility disruption. A great relationship with your maintenance provider helps to ease the impact, and the cost of an occasional repair may not break the budget. But when repairs on aging elevator systems become more frequent and costly, it’s time to consider modernization.
Consider three important facts: Modernization saves time, money, and aggravation.
While on its face modernization costs more than an unexpected repair, it is usually less expensive than the high cost of the on-going maintenance that aging elevator systems require. Scheduled modernization preempts other complicating issues that arise from multiple breakdowns, including:
- Unpredictable timing and duration of outages
- Access to parts
- Scheduling of emergency repairs
- Incurring additional fees
Elevator systems require significant updates every 20 years to maintain safe and reliable operation, and to take advantage of improvements in energy efficiency, safety codes, and technology. Modernized buildings command higher rents and more desirable tenants, increasing the value of your building.
