According to figures from El Tiempo in 2021 Colombia had more than 16,860,000 properties, of which 73.9% of these were urban properties. Going a little deeper into the time report, it can be seen that more than 8 million of these properties are classified as buildings (horizontal properties).

When you are the administrator, owner or builder of a building, the least you want is for the equipment to begin to wear out or break down. According to some estimates by La Republica in 2018, it was believed that there were more than 30,000 elevators in Bogotá alone, making these means of transportation essential tools for the more than 8 million inhabitants of the capital who use these devices daily. Currently there are different trends such as the increase in the population in urban centers; added to the displacement and migration of foreigners, causes for more and more people to come to cities in search of better opportunities, with elevators being allied means of transportation that make it easier and safer to move around buildings.

Therefore, how insured is your elevator?

During the construction and development stage of your building, the construction firm had to hire a company that would guarantee the supply and installation of your elevator. In the same way, this company had to guarantee the builder a certain operating time, which ranges from one year or two years for companies such as Otis and Schindler, and the five-year guarantee offered by GOLD Ascensores.

Experience Guarantees

The vertical industry brings together different transport equipment such as elevators, escalators, ramps, chair lifts, among others. So what experience is important? When it comes to experience, it is important to see if this company has already executed similar projects near your building; in the same neighborhood, city or department; budget; the number of floors, elevator capacity and time.

Not all companies approach and establish lasting relationships with their clients, therefore it is important that you know how to differentiate which company you are going to buy from in case you are a builder or verify which company your Construction Company developed your building with.
