Schindler 5400 modernisation package Revitalise your existing elevator

Renew the efficiency and performance of your existing elevator system with the Schindler 5400 package. The Schindler 5400 modernisation package has been developed to specifically address the needs of your existing Schindler 5400 or EuroLift elevator.

Addressing the needs of your existing elevators

Like all equipment, elevators have an expected lifespan. It is possible to prolong the life of the system with regular maintenance. However, core components begin to wear out over time and may not comply with newer safety regulations. With the Schindler 5400 modernisation package, you can extend the life of your elevator, while also making the ride more comfortable for your passengers.

Latest technologies, higher comfort

The Schindler 5400 offers advanced features like touchless controls, personalised settings, and intelligent systems, optimising energy efficiency, while enhancing building aesthetics and property value.

Availability of spare parts

Upgrading the key components of your elevator ensures the availability of spare parts. In the event of a breakdown, components can be quickly and easily sourced to get your elevator up and running with minimal downtime.

Comply with the latest codes and standards

All new components comply with the latest codes and standards, such as EN 81-20/50, to improve the safety and accessibility of the equipment.

Efficiency and quality

Our highly trained personnel endeavour to provide high-quality consulting, support, and coordination to minimise the impact of the Schindler 5400 modernisation on the building and your tenants.

1

Energy-saving machine and inverter

Gearless machine includes a regenerative converter to improve the energy efficiency of the system and protect against unintended car movement.

2

Powerful, high performance door drive

A new state-of-the-art, high-performance car door drive ensures the smooth opening and closing of the doors. It features energy saving features, such as automatic standby mode, and an optional EN81-20/50 compliant light curtain to improve safety.

3

Sleek fixtures

The fixtures offer a sleek user interface for passengers to call an elevator and input their destination. They enhance the overall aesthetic and value of the building and are also compliant with the latest European accessibility standards, as an option.

4

Digitally enabled controller

The SC controller, Schindler’s latest control technology, improves the performance of your entire elevator system and prepares it for future enhancements. This digitally-enabled controller can support remote monitoring and maintenance of the elevator after it is turned over for service.


Fixtures that meet your needs

By installing new fixtures, building tenants see a clear improvement to the system and, since the fixtures are a 1:1 replacement for the existing equipment, the impact to the existing building is minimised.

We have different options to ensure the fixtures are compatible with your existing infrastructure. Since the fixtures can be installed in the same position and the landing doors can be reused, the impact on the existing building infrastructure can be minimised.

Future-focused solutions

The components in your Schindler 5400 modernisation package have been developed to improve the sustainability of the overall elevator system. Features such as standby mode in the door and the controller, regenerative drive technology, and improved control functions supports the energy efficiency of your building.

By opting for a Schindler 5400 package, you are also contributing to a more sustainable future. By replacing only the critical components that require an upgrade, the remaining components in the elevator can be reused and unnecessary waste is minimised.

A digitally-enabled elevator

This Schindler 5400 package also enables the connectivity of your elevator, assuring the transition to digital services is hassle-free in the future.

With a digitally enabled elevator, you can improve the day-to-day management of your system.

  • Schindler Ahead ActionBoard allows your facility manager to monitor the equipment remotely.
  • Adaptive maintenance service helps to recognise potential faults and provide preventative service. A newly connected elevator supports 24/7 intelligent auto callback service and maintenance. This can reduce downtime by up to 34%, compared to non-connected units.
  • Schindler Ahead Digital Media Services turns your elevator into an infotainment center

They streamline communication, logistics, and provide recommendations for upgrades and modifications to optimise elevator system performance.
