Escalator Installation

A continuous loop, installed to carry your traffic.

DMW installs, and commissions escalators and moving walks — trussed, aligned, and speed-calibrated for the foot traffic your building actually sees.

What we install

Four systems, one crew.

Every escalator or walkway is engineered around rise height, traffic volume, and the space's own structural openings before the truss ever arrives on site.

Commercial escalators

Standard-duty units for retail, offices, and mixed-use lobbies with moderate, predictable traffic.

30° INCLINE · 0.5 M/S

Heavy-duty / transit

Reinforced step chains and continuous-duty motors built for airports, stations, and 24-hour operation.

CONTINUOUS DUTY · IP-RATED

Moving walkways

Flat and inclined travelators for long concourses — terminals, exhibition halls, and large-format retail.

0°–12° INCLINE · WIDE PALLET

Outdoor escalators

Weatherproofed steps, heated combs, and sealed drive units for exposed transit and stadium sites.

IP55 · HEATED COMB PLATE
How installation works

Five stages, one incline.

Escalators go in along a single rising line — each stage builds directly on the last, from truss placement to the final ride-quality check.

01

Truss placement & structural tie-in

The steel truss is craned or winched into the floor opening and bolted to the building structure at the top and bottom landings.

Rigging & crane day
02

Drive, steps & handrail assembly

The drive unit, step chain, and steps are fitted inside the truss, and the handrail band is threaded and tensioned along its full loop.

Mechanical fit-out
03

Alignment & speed calibration

Step-to-comb clearance, handrail speed, and step level are all tuned so the ride matches spec at both landings.

Precision tuning
04

Safety devices & skirt brushes

Step demarcation lighting, skirt-obstruction switches, comb-plate sensors, and emergency stops are wired and function-tested.

Interlock testing
05

Load testing & certification

The unit runs under rated load while an independent inspector verifies braking distance, speed, and safety-device response against code.
