Dubai Company Brings In-Lift Digital Screens to UK

Dubai Company Brings In-Lift Digital Screens to UK
09 August 2024
 

Digital lift screens have been introduced in residential properties for the first time in the UK.

Screens have been placed in residential lifts at the Royal Wharf development in London, in partnership with developer Oxley. 

These digital notice boards allow property partners to create, upload and display important community messages in real-time. The whole system is operated remotely and eliminates the need for paper notices.

Will Young, Head of Property (UK & Ireland) of Oxley Holdings comments, “The Elevision screens have been a fantastic addition to Royal Wharf, significantly enhancing the management team's ability to communicate with residents and provide crucial real-time updates. Additionally, these screens offer a valuable advertising platform for the commercial businesses within Royal Wharf, aligning with our vision of fostering a vibrant and connected community.”

The deal marks Elevision’s debut in the UK. Niall Sallam, Elevision’s CEO, expressed his excitement about the milestone, saying, "Our collaboration with Oxley marks a significant step in our commitment to providing world-class media and communication solutions. Oxley’s extensive property portfolio make them the perfect partner for our expansion into the UK, and this partnership is yet another example of their forward thinking approach when it comes to enhancing every aspect of the resident experience.”
