FAQ
We are here to help. If you did not find the answer to your question, email us anytime.
Do you service both elevators and escalators?
Yes. We maintain elevators, escalators, moving walks, and hybrid mobility systems across commercial and residential properties.
Can you modernize older systems without full replacement?
Absolutely. We can retrofit key components in phases to reduce outages while bringing performance and safety up to modern standards.
Do you offer contracts for multi-site portfolios?
Yes. We provide centralized reporting, SLA-based response levels, and regional technician coverage for portfolio operators.
How fast is emergency response in major German cities?
Most metro areas receive dispatch within 60 minutes depending on contract tier and real-time traffic conditions.
How often should elevators and escalators be maintained?
It depends on traffic, age, and building type. We recommend a preventive schedule tailored to usage, with higher-frequency checks for high-traffic sites like retail and transit hubs.
Do you handle TÜV preparation and documentation?
Yes. We prepare checklists, service records, and corrective actions so your system is inspection-ready with clear documentation and traceable maintenance history.
Can you modernize systems with minimal downtime?
Yes. We plan modernization in phases—controls, drive, safety, and cabin—so your building stays operational while performance and compliance improve step by step.
Do you provide spare parts and long-term support?
We source certified parts, maintain recommended spares for critical sites, and track part compatibility so repairs are faster and repeat issues are reduced.
What information should I send when reporting a fault?
Share the building address, system type, any fault code shown on the panel, time of incident, and photos/videos if possible. This helps us dispatch the right technician and parts.
