Serving Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and Sydney, we upgrade lifts in office towers, retail centres, and government buildings with minimal downtime.

Our Commercial Lift Modernisation Process
We take a phased approach to upgrading your lift system, tailored to your building’s structure and traffic demands. Here’s what to expect:
Assessment & Planning
We inspect your current lift system and prepare a tailored elevator commissioning procedure.
Component Upgrades
We upgrade key parts such as motors, controllers, and doors, while retaining usable infrastructure.
Integration
Updated system is tested for compatibility with fire alarms, emergency lighting, and BMS controls.
Final Testing
We complete all safety checks using a structured elevator commissioning checklist
Certification
A compliance report and documentation of all modernised components is provided upon handover.
Work Completed With Minimal Downtime
We understand that commercial tenants and operations rely on elevator access. Our team works after-hours or in staged phases to reduce disruption. All work is documented with an installation testing commissioning record and completed under AS 1735 standards.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between modernisation and replacement?
Modernisation updates core components while keeping the existing lift structure. Replacement is a full system overhaul. Modernisation is often faster and more cost-effective.
Can the elevator stay in use during works?
In many cases, yes. We offer staged upgrade solutions to ensure at least partial lift access during the project.
Do you provide documentation for compliance?
Absolutely. We issue full commissioning reports, upgrade logs, and safety certifications upon completion.
