During the installation of an elevator in a residential area, the construction company temporarily increased the price by 20% due to foundation and pipeline issues, The owners' opinions were divided, leading to escalating conflicts and a temporary halt in the project. This is not an isolated case but a common scenario in the renovation of elevators in old residential communities.
Complex approval processes and information asymmetry
The installation of elevators in most old residential neighborhoods requires approval from multiple departments, including planning, housing construction, and fire safety, Even when property owners agree unanimously, the process often takes over a year due to its lengthy procedures and lack of transparency. At the market level, some companies attract contracts with low prices but later impose successive price hikes or lack after-sales services, It has caused a crisis of trust among residents.
Neighborhood Disputes and Future Risks
The elevator shaft is usually built on one side, resulting in limited natural lighting and increased noise for lower-floor residents, yet they benefit less from it, High-rise residents benefit more, and the unequal distribution of benefits leads to frequent conflicts. Even after installation is completed, maintenance is often neglected once the construction team withdraws, Cases involving power outages, improper door closure, and floor deviations within six months have been frequently reported.
The whole life cycle mindset from construction to management
Industry experts point out that elevator projects should achieve integrated management from approval, design, construction to maintenance. Transparent pricing, advance disclosure of additional fees, and establishment of a dispute coordination mechanism, Through intelligent monitoring and data-driven management, the transition from "reactive maintenance" to "proactive prevention" is achieved.
