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 modernising 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 customised 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.


Residential References

One of Auckland’s most recognisable premium apartment buildings, The Metropolis, was completed in 1999 and stands at 38 stories tall.  Schindler was chosen to supply the lifts and escalator which include 4 x high-speed passenger elevators serving 35 levels, one large capacity service lift serving 37 levels, 2 x low-rise passenger lifts and an outdoor escalator.

The Metropolis, Auckland

Kensington Park in Orewa, north of Auckland, wanted to ensure that environmental considerations were incorporated into every aspect of the building process of their development. This of course included vertical transportation. Five Schindler elevators were chosen not only for their economical use of energy but also for their superior quality and quiet ride.
