Residential buildings

Residential property developers and owners count on us for stylish in-building transportation that is safe, durable, stylish, and highly efficient.

Schindler residential elevators – welcome home!

A personal welcome. Our elevators deliver passengers to their homes safely, quietly, efficiently, and in comfort – a daily pleasure your tenants can take for granted.

Perfect fit

Residents are the all-important touchstones for elevator performance in any residential building. Schindler helps you plan for capacities in real-world use, ensuring residents do not have unnecessary waiting times.

Silent operation

Schindler’s Swiss-engineered elevators are designed for excellent ride quality and minimum noise. For your residents, that means seamless mobility with no complaints – not even from rooms next to the shaft.

Easy to plan

Planning a new development or modernizing an existing building? Schindler experts can help you find the best technical and design solution for you and your tenants. And with our exclusive Plan & Design tool, you can configure your new elevator or escalator where and when you want. 

For all applications

Standard and customized solutions for low- to high-rise buildings, with pre-designed and custom interiors.

Meeting standards – and setting new ones

Improving energy efficiency is essential to reduce the environmental impact of elevators and the buildings they serve. Eco-friendly features, such as regenerative drives, LED lighting, and standby mode, while parked, reduce the total energy consumption, helping our elevators and escalators to achieve best-in-class energy-efficiency ratings. To provide an insight into the ecological performance of our elevators throughout their life, we provide Environmental Product Declarations (EPD).

Schindler has registered EPDs at the "International EPD® System" for all major elevator product lines, taking an important step further in the assessment of the environmental performance of our products, underlining our continuous efforts towards sustainable solutions.
