Landing Header Upgrades
Australia's leading Landing Header Upgrade Specialist
Upgrade your elevator doors for safety, reliability and compliance
Landing Header Upgrades
Door systems cause most lift stoppages. A worn landing header slows doors, drives callouts and risks compliance. We upgrade landing top tracks and car door operators using premium components (including Wittur AMD and Fermator) to deliver smoother operation, less downtime and AS 1735 compliance.
- Ensure your lift complies with AS 1735 and other standards, including mandatory door-lock monitoring, auto-reverse sensors and fire-rated retainers.
- Reduce stoppages and callbacks by replacing worn components with high-quality headers and operators.
- Faster, smoother door operation reduces waiting times and improves traffic
- Durable headers resist wear, reducing service calls and extending component life.
We provide complete landing header upgrades using Wittur AMD and Fermator

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a full lift replacement to fix door issues?
Usually not. A landing header and car door operator upgrade resolves most door faults without full replacement.
How long does a landing header upgrade take?
Many projects take about a week, with timelines varying based on scope and site conditions
Will this reduce downtime and callbacks?
Yes. Modern landing headers and operators (e.g., Wittur AMD, Fermator) are designed for repeatable, quiet operation with lower maintenance.
Will the upgrade meet current standards?
Yes. We configure safety devices and door-lock monitoring to meet Australian Standard AS 1735 and project requirements.
Can you prepare for future modernisation?
Yes. We specify headers/operators that integrate with planned controller or aesthetic upgrades.
