Usually, a lift needs to be modernized when it becomes more than 20 years old. Its lifespan depends a lot on the maintenance quality provided, and some units can last up to 25 years.

During the later part of its life, the system is going to have decreasing performance and increased service calls. When this begins to happen, you should consider replacing your elevator.

Expected Lifespan There are many factors that influence the expected life of an elevator. This can include: Equipment design How much it is used Environmental factors Maintenance program quality and schedule Most elevators that get proper preventative maintenance are going to last for at least 20 years before they will need any major updates.

Once a well-maintained elevator reaches 25 years of service, it would no longer be cost-effective to run it. If you have a unit from the mids, it is likely that it has relay-logic control systems. Not only are the systems obsolete, but you will have a tough time finding the technicians who can maintain them.

You can expect the same scenario for current elevators 20 years into the future. Besides, manufacturers also start phasing out parts of old units. The late 80s saw the emergence of elevators that were in a transition state between the earlier relay-logic units and the new solid-state systems. This technology combined the best of the old and new systems, also integrating computer-based controls.

Controls An elevator made by a major company is considered to last longer than the one manufactured by an independent control supplier. Every manufacturer owns the controller software code and has proprietary control over the design. A lack of elevator maintenance can lead to accelerated component wear and a dramatically shorter lifespan. Make sure you select the best maintenance contract for your needs.

The service life of an elevator system will also depend on its pieces of equipment.
