Across cities and towns, the race is on to deliver affordable housing that meets the demands of a growing population. Low-rise residential buildings present a vital answer to this need. They offer flexibility, comfort, and a human-scale solution to some of today’s biggest housing challenges.

But getting residential projects off the ground is no small feat. Builders and developers are navigating a perfect storm of:

Escalating material prices and labor shortages that strain budgets and delay timelines
Complex regulatory landscapes with varying building codes and compliance requirements
Demand for quality and comfort that must be met without blowing the budget

These challenges require a partner who understands the regulations, the economics, and the expectations that come with uncompromising deadlines. That’s where KONE comes in.

From downtime to uptime: KONE’s residential elevators help keep costs down

In residential buildings, elevator excellence is every bit as crucial a part of daily infrastructure as in high-rise developments. This is because:

Unreliable elevators carry hidden and mounting costs. Emergency breakdowns often lead to significantly higher repair expenses compared to proactive, scheduled maintenance.  
Frequent outages not only frustrate residents but can also result in regulatory compliance issues and potential safety liabilities.  
Ongoing elevator problems can impact the building’s reputation and reduce its overall property value.

Partnering with KONE means leveraging global expertise to keep your elevators running smoothly while controlling costs. The result? Fewer surprises, fewer complaints, and more confidence that your investment will continue to deliver value—for you and for the people who call your building home.
