A complete modernisation of a duplex scenic lift system in a complex, high-traffic building, designed to meet the demands of a diverse and discerning tenant base. This project involves upgrading the lifts to enhance speed, efficiency, and reliability, while seamlessly integrating into the building's architectural design. Enhanced safety features, advanced traffic management, and energy-efficient technologies ensure that the modernised lifts not only improve passenger flow but also elevate the overall experience for tenants and visitors.

The client requested that the original group of four lifts be split into two pairs, a change that required a high level of technical expertise to execute smoothly. This complex restructuring involved reconfiguring control systems, coordinating traffic flow, and optimizing lift performance to maintain efficiency and meet the building's demanding operational standards. The team implemented advanced engineering solutions to ensure a seamless transition, minimizing disruption for tenants and enhancing lift availability and reliability in the busy environment.
