How we work

  1. 1

    Technical survey visit

    The engineer examines the existing controller, drive and wiring, then specifies the replacement system that suits your exact lift.

  2. 2

    A clear scope proposal

    You receive a written description of every element to be replaced and what will stay, so you know exactly what the job involves.

  3. 3

    Installation and calibration

    The new controller and drive are fitted, then the sensors and operating parameters are calibrated until the lift performs to the required specification.

  4. 4

    Handover and documentation

    The lift is tested at every floor and handed over with documentation of the installed system and the warranty details.

What sets this area apart

Al Musaffah is a residential area that developed early in South Riyadh's expansion, dominated by relatively older apartment blocks with basic lift systems. These ageing lifts suffer from uneven floor stops and difficulty sourcing compatible spare parts. Upgrading the control system improves performance and safety and cuts surprise breakdowns that leave residents on the stairs.

Al Musaffah in South Riyadh is a relatively older residential area of multi-storey apartment blocks from the area's early development phase.

Most lifts in Al Musaffah operate on classic mechanical control systems lacking modern digital readout capability.

Questions about Control system upgrades

Can the controller be upgraded without replacing the whole machine?

In many cases yes: the machine and ropes may still be in good condition while only the controller and drive need replacing. The technical survey determines what must change and what can stay, and we will not recommend more than your lift actually needs.

Will the new system be compatible with my existing lift?

Compatibility is confirmed precisely during the survey visit before any decision is made. We measure the machine room, review the existing motor type, the number of floors and the wiring, then select the right system. We do not fit anything before full compatibility is confirmed.

What is an inverter drive and what does it do?

An inverter drive controls the motor speed precisely on start and stop instead of switching full power on at once, which eliminates jolts, makes travel smooth and reduces mechanical stress on the lift's components.

What warranty comes with the new control system?

The warranty we offer extends to up to 15 years, with the exact terms depending on the system installed. Everything is documented in writing and handed over on completion, and we are happy to answer any questions about the terms before work begins.

Can the control upgrade be done on an existing lift without a lengthy shutdown?

The time the lift must be out of service varies depending on the complexity of the existing system, the number of floors and the wiring condition, all of which the engineer establishes during the survey. We work in a planned sequence to minimise disruption to building users and give you realistic expectations before the job begins.

Our building's lift is very old, is upgrading it worth it?

Yes. Upgrading just the control system breathes new life into an old lift, improving safety and comfort for residents without replacing the entire unit.

What is the difference between the new and old control systems?

The old system is basic mechanical and shows faults only as sudden stops. The new system is digital, displays faults instantly on a screen and lets repairs happen before residents are affected.
