Maintenance

Management of elevators according to laws and regulations

According to the law (Building Standards Act and Industrial Safety and Health Act), the owner (or administrator) must conduct annual inspections and periodic tests on elevators as maintenance.
In addition to conducting regular inspections, our company also provides reports on regular inspections conducted by our inspectors on lifts and other devices, and attends performance inspections.

Maintenance contract types

There are two types of maintenance contracts. The first is a full maintenance contract, which includes the replacement of parts that may need to be repaired as a result of using the elevator and covers repair fees, in addition to the monthly inspection fee. The second is the Parts, Oil, Grease (POG) contract, which only includes the replacement of expendable parts; and slight adjustments are made to the items included in the monthly inspection. We offer and provide the most suitable contract to our customers depending on the conditions of use such as the environment and usage frequency of the installed elevator.

Renewal of elevators

The statutory depreciation and service life of elevators is 17 years (according to tax laws), but the risk of a breakdown occurring increases about 20 years after installation due to reduced machine performance. The deterioration of the system as a whole, as well as in terms of functionality and design, that cannot be covered within the scope of the current contract will occur and it will become difficult to procure the necessary parts, so it is important to plan for a renewal (a full removal and replacement, a partial removal and renewal, or the renewal of the control system) in order to improve the functionality of the elevator and prevent it from breaking down. We will propose the most optimum renewal plan that suits our customer's budget and schedule.
