Kjell-Ove Älåker has been chairman of the Stångåpromenaden Housing Association for the past 12 years. He explains: “When the elevators were about 25 years old, we decided to renovate all nine of them at the same time. We solicited bids for both modernization and replacement but ultimately chose modernization because it is a more environmentally friendly and cost-effective option.” He continues: “The project took 29 weeks, and the elevators were upgraded one at a time.”

The Scandic Frimurarehotellet in Linköping was built in 1912. When two of the hotel’s elevators were due for renovation, a modernization solution was chosen that could be adapted to the building’s beautiful National Romantic architecture. The project was carried out by Motum subsidiary Nordisk Hiss, which has extensive expertise in modernization. Scandic Frimurarehotellet is centrally located in Linköping. The newly renovated hotel has 260 rooms served by a total of six elevators.
