A method for modernizing an elevator includes arranging a first rope clamp and a second rope clamp such that the first rope clamp and the second rope clamp are supported by a same support element; removing the old hoisting roping; and installing a new hoisting roping by guiding the new hoisting roping to pass from the traction sheave to the elevator car or the counterweight via the aperture in the floor of the machine room, the new hoisting roping comprising a first part that is guided to pass to the elevator car or the counterweight to a first diverting pulley, and onwards from the first diverting pulley back upwards to the first rope clamp; and a second part that is guided to pass to the elevator car or the counterweight to a second diverting pulley, and onwards from the second diverting pulley back upwards to the second rope clamp.
