Lift shaft condition
The shaft should be clean, dry, and free of debris.
Hassle-free installation from start to finish
Our job is to make your job easier. We make sure everything is in place for a smooth, trouble-free elevator installation process to keep your project on schedule and on budget, with no surprises.
Checklist
Before we start building
Entrance protection
All entrances to the shaft are protected by full-height protection (supplied by KONE) to prevent personnel from falling in.
Lifting points
Hoisting beams, lifting eyes, and ventilation ducts must be in place, as specified in the building plans to avoid costly delays to the building process.
Power supply
A 3-phase power supply for the installation hoist and the lift must be installed.
Material storage
A clean, dry 50 m2 storage space must be provided on the ground floor of the building, close to the shaft and with clear access.
The KONE lift installation process
Building information modeling (BIM)
Long before we arrive on site we use digital planning techniques like BIM to prepare for the installation process. This includes creating 3D digital models of lifts and escalators that contain information on things like building interface points, the forces applied to the building by KONE equipment, and even information about the materials we use. BIM also helps to make collaboration and communication easier between all parties during the project.

Professional project management
When you buy a solution from KONE, you’re getting far more than just equipment and installation. Every single project we handle is led by a dedicated, accredited project manager with solid experience of running similar projects.
Using our Installation Management Tool for mobile devices, anyone in your team who needs to can keep track of the installation process in real time and even communicate directly with the KONE project manager.

Efficient installation
When it comes to installing your equipment, our goal is to keep everything tidy and efficient so that all personnel get their work done safely and on schedule. The KONE lift installation process doesn’t require scaffolding, which cuts costs and minimizes disruption to other construction work on site.

Safety is our number one priority
All our installation technicians receive regular safety training and undergo safety audits to review their working practices. Our installation process is also eco-efficient – we take care that all waste materials are properly sorted and recycled, and minimize the use of harmful substances like solvents.
