The Importance of Regular Elevator Maintenance in Kuwait - Al Quds International Company's Expertise

Introduction
Elevators are essential components of modern buildings in Kuwait, whether commercial, residential, or administrative. With frequent daily use, elevator maintenance becomes an absolute necessity to ensure user safety and maintain efficient system operation.
Neglecting routine maintenance can lead to sudden breakdowns or even serious accidents. Therefore, regular maintenance is an investment in long-term safety and quality.

Hence, Al Quds International Company stands out as one of the most prominent elevator companies in Kuwait. It has extensive experience and a specialized technical team that specializes in elevator maintenance according to the highest international standards.

First: What is Periodic Elevator Maintenance?
Periodic elevator maintenance involves conducting a series of regular checks on all elevator components to ensure their efficient and safe operation, and replacing worn parts before they cause a breakdown.

Periodic maintenance typically includes:

Inspecting motors and operating systems.

Ensuring the integrity of cables and handles.

Inspecting doors, buttons, and sensors.

Testing the safety and automatic stop system.

Cleaning and lubricating mechanical parts to maintain smooth operation.

These procedures are performed at specific intervals depending on the elevator type and usage, which may be weekly, monthly, or quarterly, to ensure safe and stable operation.

Second: Why is elevator maintenance necessary in Kuwait?
Kuwait is one of the countries experiencing a significant increase in the number of high-rise buildings and commercial complexes, meaning elevators are used thousands of times daily.
With such operational intensity, elevator maintenance becomes a necessity, not a luxury, for the following reasons:

1. Maintaining passenger safety
The first and most important goal of regular maintenance is to ensure the safety of users. Sudden malfunctions can pose a risk to the lives of those inside the elevator, so regular inspections prevent any serious malfunctions.

2. Extending the life of the elevator
Every elevator has a lifespan that depends on the quality of its maintenance. When elevator maintenance is performed regularly, the lifespan of mechanical and electronic components is extended by up to 40%.

3. Reducing future repair costs
Preventive maintenance detects minor faults before they develop into major and costly problems.
Al Quds International Company affirms that "a dinar spent on preventive maintenance today saves tens of dinars in repairs tomorrow."

4. Improving Operational Efficiency
An elevator that undergoes regular maintenance operates smoothly and quietly, without vibrations or disturbing noises, which reflects on the comfort of users and their confidence in the building's quality.
