Retrofit installation of elevators

Motum has extensive experience in retrofitting elevators and offers space-saving solutions suitable for most buildings, particularly those built as part of the Million Program. An elevator improves accessibility, comfort, and property value.

When an elevator cannot be installed inside the stairwell, there are options for installing it on the exterior of the building. Motum provides high-quality installations and service throughout Sweden, ensuring long-lasting performance and satisfied customers.
