Elevator Modernizations
Elevator Modernizations and Upgrades — Customized to Your Building’s Needs
At Advanced Elevator Services, we deliver elevator modernizations and targeted upgrades that align with your building’s performance goals, code requirements, and aesthetic vision. Our Atlanta-based team combines technical expertise with innovative solutions to extend equipment life, improve safety, reduce downtime, and enhance rider experience—while controlling cost and disruption.
What we assess
System condition: hoistway, machine room, control systems, door equipment, and car components.
Performance metrics: ride quality, speed consistency, leveling accuracy, and downtime history.
Code and compliance: accessibility (ADA), fire service, and local/state safety codes.
Building needs: traffic patterns, tenant expectations, architectural constraints, and long-term capital plan.
Modernization options tailored to you
Control system upgrades: Replace outdated relay or early microprocessor controls with modern digital controllers for improved reliability, diagnostics, and energy management.
Drive replacements: Install geared or gearless traction machines or modern VVVF inverters to improve ride smoothness, efficiency, and noise levels.
Door system modernization: Upgrade operators, reducers, and door panels for faster, quieter operation and improved safety sensors.
Car interior refresh: Custom finishes, lighting, flooring, handrails, and fixtures to match property branding and tenant expectations.
Safety and code upgrades: Emergency lighting, telephone/enhanced communications, fire recall systems, and restoration to current code standards.
Accessibility improvements: Low-floor operation, tactile controls, audible and visual announcements, and compliant car layouts.
Energy efficiency: Regenerative drives, LED lighting, standby controls, and smart scheduling to reduce energy consumption and operational costs.
Remote monitoring and predictive maintenance: IoT-enabled sensors and cloud diagnostics to forecast issues, reduce unplanned downtime, and optimize service schedules.
Destination dispatch and traffic optimization: Intelligent dispatching systems for high-rise or high-traffic buildings to reduce wait and travel times.
Our process
Comprehensive assessment and proposal: On-site inspection, performance testing, and a clear modernization plan with phased options and budget ranges.
Custom design and specification: Tailor materials, control strategies, and timelines to building operations and aesthetic goals.
Permitting and code coordination: Manage documentation, inspections, and city/state approvals.
Project execution with minimal disruption: Night or weekend work windows, temporary elevators where needed, and coordinated schedules to maintain tenant access.
Testing, commissioning, and training: Full performance testing, safety certifications, and operator/maintenance training to ensure seamless transition.
Ongoing support: Maintenance programs, remote monitoring packages, and options for future upgrades.
Why choose Advanced Elevator Services
Local expertise: Atlanta-based team with extensive experience across commercial, residential, institutional, and mixed-use properties.
Innovative solutions: We apply modern controls, energy-efficient technology, and predictive maintenance to lower lifecycle costs.
Customized approach: No one-size-fits-all packages—each modernization plan is tailored to your building’s traffic patterns, budget, and design goals.
Safety and compliance focus: We prioritize code compliance and passenger safety in every project.
Clear communication: Detailed timelines, phased plans, and a single point of contact keep stakeholders informed from assessment through handover.
Next steps Schedule a no-obligation site assessment. We’ll evaluate your existing equipment, present prioritized modernization options, and provide a clear plan to improve safety, performance, and tenant satisfaction—while managing cost and downtime.
