Your lifecycle partner for
High-Rise
Mobility

To help you realise your high-rise vision we offer unparalleled consulting and planning support right from the start, even before the first outline of a building is drawn. Local experts are supported by TK Elevator's global high-rise consulting team. Involving them right from the beginning of the structural design is sure to achieve the best possible outcome and save you costly changes at its later stages.

As the centerpiece of a serious planning endeavour, we carry out an elevator traffic analysis (ETA) to predict the future performance of a given elevator layout. An ETA enables each iteration of an elevator to be refined for the best possible outcome – the optimum number of shafts, energy savings, system efficiency, passenger comfort and budgetary considerations, for example. A thorough ETA forms the basis of an architectural design that takes building mobility into account.

Mixed-use high-rise buildings may contain hotel, residential, retail and office spaces. Co-working areas or special-purpose floors (for restaurants or sky gardens) might soon replace traditional office levels. In all these challenges, the experience, expertise and creative flexibility of our consultants and planners will ensure you get the best possible high-rise mobility solution to suit your needs.

For us, to plan smart is also to be fully transparent towards our customers, especially when it comes to putting mobility concepts through a performance and reality check. That's why our tools and methods in elevator traffic analysis consider ISO 8100-32 standards and are 100% open to scrutiny. We even published a white paper on ETA.

Elevator design extends far beyond the cabin with custom wall claddings and matching floors. A passenger's first contact with a building's mobility solution is in fact the destination control terminal in the lobby. Then comes the building's wayfinding system and additional signalisation such as landing direction indicators that mark the way before the boarding of an actual cabin. Our products take that into full account with features like customisable digital user interfaces, tuneable RGB lighting and a wide range of fixtures and signalisation options.

We prioritise economical elevator technology, e.g. through AC gearless machinery, minimising the number of empty or phantom stops, and lowering energy costs through regenerative drive technology, as generated power is fed back into the building's grid. Our high-rise mobility solutions reduce the energy, space, resources, and on-site maintenance your elevators or escalators will require.
