Return Visit to Elevator Retrofit Project at Yuanyang Garden, Liangjiang New Area: Four Years of Stable Operation, Elevating Residents’ Well-being

Elderly high-floor residents once struggled to carry groceries up stairs, rarely leaving their homes biweekly. Now, residents can easily ride the elevator with strollers and shopping bags, and daily walks downstairs have become routine. Macrolift recently revisited Yuanyang Garden in Liangjiang New Area to inspect 7 retrofitted elevators that have run steadily for nearly four years, showcasing tangible improvements from the old community renovation.

Yuanyang Garden is an older residential compound without original elevators. Senior residents on upper floors and families with young children faced great difficulties for shopping, medical visits and daily trips. To solve residents’ urgent needs, 7 Macrolift retrofitted elevators were completed and commissioned in early 2022, fixing the travel bottleneck for building occupants.

Mr. Zhu, lead of the retrofit project, shared the profound changes for residents over four years. Before installation, many elderly residents avoided going outdoors due to exhausting stair climbs. After the elevators were put into service, travel hurdles were fundamentally resolved. On-site observations show residents smoothly taking elevators with strollers and groceries. The stable operation encourages more seniors to get outside, greatly boosting residents’ sense of fulfillment and happiness.

Regarding four years of operation, Mr. Zhu noted a minor fault emerged in the second year after launch. Homeowners contacted Macrolift after-sales promptly. Our team responded quickly and completed on-site repairs, and the elevators have operated reliably ever since with no repeat issues. Built with Macrolift’s self-developed patented waterproof technology, these elevators shield core parts against accidental water ingress, maintaining stable performance amid the region’s rainy, humid weather. Mr. Zhu confirmed that four years of real-world use proves Macrolift delivers reliable quality, consistent safety and responsive after-sales support, making it a trusted retrofit elevator brand.
