Maintenance that matches your needs

We'll help you find the service package that's right for you, no matter what type of escalators you have. A tailored maintenance program keeps components in good condition and recommends parts replacement based on actual condition and usage — supporting lower costs over the equipment's lifetime.

Care beyond your expectations

Predictive escalator maintenance

Improve escalator availability with AI-based data analytics that can help anticipate maintenance needs and reduce unexpected repairs. Speed, temperature, vibration, and energy consumption are monitored in real time to support safety and efficiency. If an escalator stops because of user error, proactive notifications are sent, and you'll be notified when the escalator can be restarted.*
