Schindler PORT Overlay For a hassle-free modernization

Today, high-rise buildings demand their vertical transportation systems to be not only reliable and smart, but to provide the most innovative concepts and technologies to brace the buildings for the future.

New operation frontier with Schindler PORT

Bringing new technologies to reinvigorate existing buildings is the essence of effective modernization; not only do they add appeal but they generate genuine value for building owners as well. Nevertheless, customers are often reluctant to modernize lifts because they are concerned about possible disruption on daily traffic. Schindler PORT Overlay helps ensure a seamless and hassle-free modernization, without any inconvenience for tenants or passengers. And this Schindler solution could work with both Schindler and third-party lift systems. A Schindler PORT upgrade can be implemented as the first step of a more comprehensive modernization, so even with one car out of service, the overall performance of the lift system would not be compromised.

Reduced time to destination

Driven by our leading transit management solution, Schindler PORT can reduce time to destination by up to 30%, compared to lifts with a conventional control system.

Impeccable personalization service

The Schindler PORT system can offer unique ride experiences tailored for individual passengers and specific requirements, including for passengers with disabilities or for exclusive VIP rides.

Seamless security access control

The credentials of users can be verified through programmed cards, smartphones, or a biometric access control system, aligned with building management needs. Security access can be managed remotely and intelligently.

Improved efficiency and optimization

While building occupants can enjoy a smoother and more efficient lift experience, building management can access data and reports on the  movement of tenants and visitors throughout the building to track, analyze, and respond, when required.

Boosting traffic performance

Schindler PORT features include:

  • Smart mobility - Building managers can access real-time lift status with their smartphones, as Schindler PORT synchronizes data through Internet of Things (IoT).
  • Schindler myPORT app - traveling throughout the building is quick, secure, seamless, and convenient – simply use your mobile phone to unlock doors and call lifts.
  • Our award-winning traffic simulation system - applies the method specified in ISO 8100-32 for a comprehensive traffic analysis of the building and helps to work out the best solution accordingly
  • Schindler CoLab - our new open, secure and modular building integration toolbox that allows our customers to seamlessly integrate Schindler’s pioneering digital services portfolio into their building management and user experience.
  • Compatibility - Compatible with all Schindler lifts and third-party lifts

How it works

See how tenants and passengers benefit from uninterrupted operation and improved transit experience.

A modern design to uplift your building

Lifts are striking architectural elements. They determine the impression of a building’s interior. Schindler high-rise lifts blend independently but harmoniously into the overall building concept.

In the course of modernization, the opportunity arises to make adjustments to various design elements, such as hall lanterns, designation plates, destination indicators, landing operation panels, and car operation panels. The car interior can also be upgraded to a more pristine look, adding a breath of fresh air to the building.
