Is your building equipped with old lifts that are starting to show signs of wear and tear? It may be time to consider upgrading your lifts for improved safety, efficiency, and modern features. ADL Lift Services is here to help with lift replacement and top-notch lift upgrades that meet your needs.



Why upgrade old lifts?

Enhanced Safety

Older lifts may lack modern safety features that are essential for the well-being of passengers. Upgrading your lifts ensures compliance with the latest safety regulations and standards. Newer lifts come equipped with advanced safety mechanisms, such as emergency communication systems, automatic rescue devices, and improved door sensors. By upgrading, you provide a safer environment for your building occupants.


Improved Efficiency

Older lifts tend to be less energy-efficient compared to their modern counterparts. Upgrading your lifts can lead to significant energy savings by utilising energy-efficient motors, LED lighting, and improved control systems. This not only reduces your building's carbon footprint but also helps lower your energy bills in the long run.


Modern Features and Aesthetics

Old lifts may lack the modern features and aesthetics that are expected in today's buildings. Lift upgrades offer opportunities to enhance the user experience with features like touchless controls, destination dispatch systems, and sleek, contemporary designs. Upgrading your lifts can provide a more pleasant and efficient transportation experience for both tenants and visitors.


When to consider lift upgrades?

Frequent Breakdowns and Repairs

If your lifts are experiencing frequent breakdowns and require costly repairs, it may be a sign that they are reaching the end of their service life. Investing in lift replacement or upgrades can eliminate the hassle and expense of constant repairs, ensuring smooth and reliable operation.


Obsolete Technology

Old lifts often use outdated technology, which may be unreliable and difficult to maintain. Additionally, finding spare parts for older lifts can become increasingly challenging as manufacturers discontinue support. Upgrading your lifts ensures access to modern technology and readily available spare parts, reducing downtime and simplifying maintenance.


Changing Building Needs

As your building evolves and undergoes renovations or changes in usage, your lift requirements may change as well. Upgrading your lifts allows you to adapt to the changing needs of your building, such as increased capacity, improved accessibility, or integration with smart building systems.
