Safety in the Elevator Shaft

With the “Ahead Door Show,” Schindler Aufzüge shows that even elevators can offer a potential digital business model. To enable field technicians to install it safely, this Swiss company relies on the benefits of the WINSTA® Pluggable Connection System with protection against mismating.

The Benefits for You:

  • Plug-and-play solutions complies with global regulations on connection of electrical loads

  • Easy handling in the risk area

  • Tool-free installation increases efficiency and reduces the risk of injury

Nearly 1.5 billion people worldwide use at least one Schindler elevator every day. The heads of the company, based in the Swiss canton of Lucerne, have realized that having so many points of contact with users offers significant leverage for implementing digital business models. One of these digital business models, which the vendor bundles in its digital media services, is the “Ahead Door Show.” In this model, Schindler Aufzüge exploits an advantage that other digital out-of-home communication media cannot offer. Claudio Haas, Head of Product Management for Digital Media Services, describes it thus: “Compared to the market as a whole, we have a significantly higher dwell time in the area in front of elevators. We also have a longer attention span, since passengers tend to focus on the middle of the door and wait till it opens.”

The “Ahead Door Show” attracts a lot of attention. For its connection, it uses the WINSTA® Pluggable Connection System with protection against mismating.
