Schindler Group’s Post

Our team at the 105 Victoria Street project in central London has deployed the Schindler Robotic Installation System for Elevators (Schindler R.I.S.E). This marks the first time this cutting-edge technology is being used in the UK. Schindler Group R.I.S.E is a self-climbing robot designed to navigate elevator shafts independently while installing components with precision and speed. Equipped with tools to drill holes and install anchor bolts for landing doors, divider beams, and wall brackets. Terry Muckian, Skanska Executive Vice President, emphasised the importance of technology and innovation to improve safety: "At Skanska, we believe that embracing advanced technologies like Schindler R.I.S.E is essential for pushing the boundaries of construction. By trialling these innovations, we can deliver projects with greater efficiency, safety, and quality. “Additionally, using this robot enhances safety during the elevator installation and minimises exposure to noisy, dusty environments, making our work sites a better place to be.” The 445,000 sq ft building, developed by real estate investment manager BGO, is the UK’s largest 100% electric, net zero carbon office development. Skanska is the main contractor and completion is targeted for 2026.
