Solutions that fit you
Schindler 5500 is the modular passenger elevator that takes configurability to a new level. It uniquely combines performance, flexibility, and design, which makes it easy to fit to the requirements of commercial mid- and high-end residential buildings. Machine room-less (MRL) configurations save valuable building space, shorten installation time, and reduce power consumption.
Essentials for a perfect fit
Layout flexibility
Configure a mobility solution with perfectly fitting cars and a smooth flow of people and goods. Machine room-less (MRL) or machine room above (MRA) options are available to make your building work your way.
High-level performance
Enjoy a faster, quieter, and smoother ride. The Schindler 5500 has been engineered to deliver the combined benefits of reliable performance, greater travel heights, faster speeds, lower noise levels, and less vibration.
Efficient, ecological performance
Rely on the latest technology with up to 30% energy savings. The Schindler 5500 helps you lower your building’s carbon footprint by using energy more efficiently, with regenerative drive for sustainable operation.
Freedom of design
From functional to sophisticated, pre-configured to custom—our design options give you the freedom to create stylish elevators that are the perfect complement to your building, including glass and bare car options, and stainless steel and laminate finishes.
Commitment to quality
At Schindler, we don’t just make, maintain, and install our equipment. Just like you, we ride it every day with our families. All Schindler equipment passes a rigorous safety check from an independent team before being turned over to you.
