Our Schindler ReNew modernization includes a new controller, inverter, fixtures, and machine. Upgrading these essential components provides a smoother, more pleasant ride for passengers and enables you to take advantage of leading energy-efficient technologies.
A Schindler ReNew modernization upgrades several critical components in your elevator, including the controller, inverter, fixtures, and machine. The replacement of outdated or obsolete components helps to address the unreliability and unpredictability associated with older installations, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted ride.
For equipment that is 15 to 20 years old, a Schindler ReNew should be considered to maintain the availability of spare parts, improve equipment performance, and preemptively upgrade components that are reaching their end of life.
Not what you’re looking for?
A Schindler ReNew modernization focuses on the critical electrical components in your elevator, along with a new machine and suspension system.
Energize the brain of your elevator: the controller. A new elevator controller assures your equipment’s performance, safety, and reliability, while also preparing the system for future enhancements. Additional advantages include reduced noise and increased levels of security. It all adds up to a significant improvement in comfort and peace of mind.
The safety and comfort of an elevator go hand in hand with smooth operation and accessibility for passengers. Upgrading the inverter can eliminate trip hazards between the car and the landings. Precision stopping accuracy, thanks to advanced digital technologies, enables easy access for all individuals. Beyond comfort and safety, a new inverter offers improved energy efficiency.
The fixtures are the primary interface between passengers and the elevator. They reflect the overall technical standard and quality of the equipment. Increase comfort and accessibility with new elevator and landing fixtures.
With a Schindler ReNew, the hoisting technology, such as ropes, will be upgraded. Since these components require replacement after several years, this will eliminate the need for short-term repair work.
Your modernization will also include a set of replacement electrical peripherals and wiring. Machine room wiring, traveling cables, shaft wiring, car connection box, shaft information, and limit switches are included in the package.
The machine is the source of power for the elevator. Old drives increase maintenance costs, do not meet current safety norms, and are no longer energy efficient by modern standards. When required, your machine will also be provided with a new frame to minimize adaptations to the building.
A wide variety of options and add-on features help you tailor a Schindler modernization to your budget and your wants. These can be easily added to your Schindler ReNew package to increase the longevity of your elevator. Whatever your priority, we can personalize a mobility solution that meets the specific requirements of your building, elevator, and tenants.

* Depending on the configuration of your Schindler ReNew solution and the existing installation.
Installing the components in a ReNew solution can be done quickly. We’ll aim to limit required building works, where possible, and endeavor to keep any noise, disruption, or dirt to a minimum – always showing the utmost respect for your building and tenants.
To ensure a smooth installation process, we’ll meet with you a few weeks before the modernization starts to discuss the final program of work. We’ll also clarify storage and access points, and coordinate our activities with any subcontractors on-site.
After a Schindler ReNew modernization, your equipment becomes easier to service and troubleshoot. The newly connected elevators enable 24/7 intelligent auto callback service and maintenance. This can reduce downtime by up to 34%*.
* Compared to non-connected units.
Schindler modernization packages not only offer better reliability and safety, but it also improves the value of your investment.
