Checklist | How to switch to a new lift maintenance provider

STEP 1 | Reassess your needs

Review lift service scope. Assess the current level of service and any gaps in maintenance coverage. Your TKE contact is happy to assist you with these tasks, especially on the technical front. Also, try to document any recurring issues or dissatisfaction with the current provider.

Check current contract and notice period. Evaluate the length and expiration dates of existing contracts. Identify any auto-renewal clauses and their exact conditions.

STEP 2 | Prepare for transition

Inventory. Compile a detailed list of all lift units, including make, model, age, and condition. Note any specific maintenance requirements or customisations. If possible, check for and identify any proprietary mechanisms used by the current provider (e.g. emergency call system).

Consultation. Schedule a no-obligation consultation with our experts. Discuss service expectations, timelines, and any immediate maintenance or repair needs. Let us tailor a maintenance plan that meets your individual needs.

STEP 3 | Make the switch

Finalise new contract. Provide TKE with access to all necessary documentation and records. Together, we will develop a detailed transition plan for you, including timelines, scheduling, and any immediate maintenance actions required.

Onboarding with TKE. Plan for internal stakeholder communication regarding the service transition. Familiarise key personnel with TKE’s maintenance protocols and communication channels. Establish a feedback loop with TKE to ensure continuous improvement.

Frequently asked questions about switching elevator maintenance contracts

How complicated is switching to TK Elevator as my new lift maintenance provider?

Switching to TK Elevator (TKE) for the maintenance of your elevator is designed to be seamless and straightforward. We have streamlined processes to ensure minimal disruption, making the transition as smooth as possible. Start by compiling an overview of your current contracts, expiration dates and auto-renewal clauses. An important aspect is timing: Most lift service contracts run on a calendar-year basis with a notice period of several months (minimum: three). This means starting to look for a new maintenance provider in October may be too late. Our checklist will help you.Feel free to contact us for support.

Who covers the warranty if I switch from the original lift manufacturer to a new service company?

We're known for customer relationships at eye level and for our transparency. That's why our open and honest answer to this question is: As long as the warranty for your new lift from the original manufacturer applies, it is in your best interest to not risk voiding it. Allowing a third party to perform maintenance and repairs could be excluded in the warranty conditions. That said, it is generally possible to buy a new lift from company A and get maintenance service from company B from the start while the product still carries a warranty from company A. Of course, you can check the conditions in your contract and discuss a follow-up service contract with TK Elevator to benefit from our unique multi-brand service capabilities. Call or e-mail us, if you have any questions.

What does TK Elevator offer differently from e.g. a local elevator company?

TKE offers a comprehensive range of services, including preventive maintenance, emergency repairs, modernisation solutions, and 24/7 support. Our Universal Service covers all brands and models of lifts, ensuring they operate smoothly, safely, and efficiently. What makes us truly unique is our global third-party competence network "International Technical Services" which provides expertise on demand, direct real-time support and powerful tools for multi-brand maintenance to all TKE service engineers.
