The most common elevator types are passenger elevators, freight elevators, service elevators and residential elevators. KONE offers tailored elevator solutions like MonoSpace® DX elevators for low- to mid-rise, MiniSpace™ DX elevators for mid- to high-rise TranSys™ DX elevators for heavy-duty transport.
Elevator installation time depends on the building and the model. KONE elevator experts can give you an estimate for your project. We also offer solutions to speed up the construction time for the entire building.

Hydraulic elevators use a piston to lift the car, making them suitable for low-rise buildings but less energy efficient. Traction elevators use ropes and counterweights, offering smoother, faster and more sustainable rides.
Elevators move a car up and down inside a shaft using hydraulic pistons or traction systems powered by an electric motor. KONE elevators also integrate smart connectivity, which enables predictive maintenance and smoother people flow.
