Bringing new technologies to reinvigorate existing buildings is the essence of effective modernization; not only do they add appeal but they generate genuine value for building owners as well. Nevertheless, customers are often reluctant to modernize elevators because they are concerned about possible disruption on daily traffic. Schindler PORT Overlay helps ensure a seamless and hassle-free modernization, without any inconvenience for tenants or passengers. And this Schindler solution could work with both Schindler and third-party elevator systems. A Schindler PORT upgrade can be implemented as the first step of a more comprehensive modernization, so even with one car out of service, the overall performance of the elevator system would not be compromised.
Driven by our leading transit management solution, Schindler PORT can reduce time to destination by up to 30%, compared to elevators with a conventional control system.
The Schindler PORT system can offer unique ride experiences tailored for individual passengers and specific requirements, including for passengers with disabilities or for exclusive VIP rides.
The credentials of users can be verified through programmed cards, smartphones, or a biometric access control system, aligned with building management needs. Security access can be managed remotely and intelligently.
While building occupants can enjoy a smoother and more efficient elevator experience, building management can access data and reports on the movement of tenants and visitors throughout the building to track, analyze, and respond, when required.
Elevators are striking architectural elements. They determine the impression of a building’s interior. Schindler high-rise elevators blend independently but harmoniously into the overall building concept.
In the course of modernization, the opportunity arises to make adjustments to various design elements, such as hall lanterns, designation plates, destination indicators, landing operation panels, and car operation panels. The car interior can also be upgraded to a more pristine look, adding a breath of fresh air to the building.
