Lift modernization
Lift modernisation can improve the performance of your lift and give it a new and fresh look. Not to mention the financial benefits of keeping your elevator running for as long as possible. In addition, you are doing the planet a favour when you modernise your lift instead of replacing it. Although the manufacturing of a lift will inevitably leave a carbon footprint, the longer you make it last, the smaller its environmental impact.

Why should I
modernize my lift?
Over time materials get worn, lift standards change and styles and trends evolve. Lift modernisation extends product lifetime by ensuring that your lift is in line with the latest standards and renovated to look its best. Modernising your lift also offers you the possibility to upgrade it with new features, or to update the entire lift design.

Placed at the bottom of the door, on the inside of the door blade, the kick plates protect the doors from wear and tear. Our kick plates in stainless steel not only prevent damage to the lift doors but make them last longer.

Some of the platform elements may start to look worn after a many years of use. However, even small and easy updates will give your platform a new lease of life, like for example:
- Platform handrail
- Top safety bar
- Control panel labels
- Platform cladding
Cabin interior
Over time, the interior of your lift car may start to look a little tired. But if you change just a few elements, it will give your Cibes cabin lift a new and fresh look. Here are some examples of elements that are easy to update and modernise:
- Wall panels and mirrors
- Handrail

What upgrades are available for my lift?
Different options for lift modernisation are available depending on the manufacturing year of your lift. So how do you know when your lift was manufactured? For lifts manufactured before or after 2017, there is an easy trick – just check the call button (see below)! If our little trick does not work for your lift, just send us the serial number displayed on the lift control panel, and we will advise you.

Lifts manufactured before 2017
Lifts manufactured in 2006-2017 have a different control system than the platform and cabin lifts that we make today. The easiest way to identify a lift from this manufacturing period, is to check if the call buttons on the doors have the above characteristic design.
Lifts manufactured in 2017 or later
In 2017, we gradually switched over to the CiCon control system, resulting in a new range of CiCon compatible upgrade kits. You easily identify a CiCon lift by its call buttons: If it has call buttons with touchscreen, or the button design shown above, it is a CiCon lift.
