FM

Full Maintenance

We provide all the LOG work, and additionally: regularly and systematically examine, adjust, lubricate as required, and if conditions warrant, repair or replace an exhaustive list of parts on the elevator (note: many of our competitors exclude very expensive parts like motors, hoisting ropes, machine etc. In doing so they remove their liability and place it on you the customer. We find this approach unscrupulous if you are calling it a full elevator maintenance contract). The only exclusions are industry standard such as: items in the elevator car.

Extend your
elevator lifetime

How our elevator maintenance
services save you money

With a comprehensive preventative maintenance plan in place, delivered by a reputable company most elevators can be in service for more than 25 years before requiring major modernizations.

There is higher reliability of the elevators as issues can often be found proactively thus avoiding potential shut-downs. The service life of the elevator can be significantly extended by replacing or repairing parts before they cause wear on other components; good preventive maintenance can extend the life of elevator equipment by 10 years or more.

From a financial perspective, owners are often able to avoid unplanned repairs due to improper maintenance.

Common questions

Here are common questions we receive regarding repairs.
Click the questions for answers.

  • Do I really need a modernization or am I getting inferior preventative maintenance?
  • Do I have money set aside for modernization work?
  • Do I have a plan for a catastrophic failure of my elevator and the associated extensive downtime?
  • Do I have a plan for my residents/clients when their elevator is out of use for a modernization?

Do I really need a modernization or am I getting inferior preventative maintenance?

Numerous times over the years, we have met with an elevator owner/operator who has been told by their elevator contractor that their elevator is so unreliable because they require an immediate modernization. Often this is not the cause and all that is missing is proper repairs and preventative maintenance. On a number of occasions we have taken over maintenance and delayed modernizations by more than 10 years!

Do I have money set aside for modernization work?

Expensive elevator renovation projects (which can be in the $70K-$150K/elevator range) should never be a surprise. We work with our customers to give advance notice (typically 3-10 years) of when we feel a full modernization project will be needed. While there can always be surprises, generally sufficient notice is provided to set aside capital funds for the necessary work.

Get in touch

Do I have a plan for a catastrophic failure of my elevator and the associated extensive downtime?

While a planned elevator modernization shutdown is a significant challenge (especially with one elevator in a building) because you can be without an elevator for 1-2 months, it is far less problematic than a catastrophic failure. In the latter case there is no warning to residents/tenants and equipment lead time can often be many months. For this reason we encourage our customers to plan for modernizations before things get absolutely critical.

Do I have a plan for my residents/clients when their elevator is out of use for a modernization?

Have you thought about what you will do with your residents/tenants when an elevator is out 1-2 months for a modernization? How about if it is the only elevator? There are no other options other than giving sufficient notice to residents to make other arrangements if they are unable to use stairs. Again, with a planned elevator interior design, this is doable. If you wait for a catastrophic failure, your challenges are magnified.

Types of elevators

We install, repair and maintain both hydraulic elevators and traction (roped) elevators.

Traction Elevators

  • Overhead
    Traditional overhead roped elevators have machine rooms which are situated directly above the elevator hoistway. While other traction elevator types like machine room less (MRLs), have gained popularity, overhead traction elevators have some significant post construction advantages. With the key elevator equipment easily accessible, including controllers, elevator machines and braking systems, maintenance technicians can easily access for preventative maintenance.
  • Basement
    While less frequent, in certain applications it makes sense to have the key traction elevator equipment in a basement machine room. Again, the advantage of this configuration over an MRL, is post construction where equipment is easily accessible to maintenance technicians.
  • Machine Room Less
    Machine room less (MRL) traction elevators have gained popularity in the past decade. Architects, in particular, appreciate this technology because the aesthetically displeasing machine room at the top of a building is no longer needed. The key elevator equipment is found inside the elevator hoistway. The disadvantage of MRLs is that much of the equipment is proprietary to the installing manufacturer leading to challenges post installation.

Hydraulic Elevators

  • Inground
    Traditional hydraulic elevator have an inground hydraulic cylinder that is attached below the elevator cab. The advantage to this technology is a quieter ride and the required hoistway size is smaller than a holeless hydraulic elevator where the cylinders are attached to the outside of the cab. The disadvantage of this technology can be high drilling costs (depending on the ground type such as rock) or difficult drilling due to water issues.
  • Holeless
    As the name suggests, a holeless hydraulic elevator does not require that a hole be drilled for the cylinder. Typically, a holeless hydraulic elevator will have cylinders that are attached to the outside of the elevator cab. The advantage to this technology is that contractors do not need to coordinate hole drilling very early in the building project, and ground type is not an issue.
  • Machine Room Less
    MRL hydraulic elevators are a relatively new technology. With this technology the required machine room (which houses the hydraulic tank) is no longer needed because it is situated within the hoistway. The disadvantages of this technology is that the equipment is generally very proprietary and very difficult to access for maintenance, thus increasing maintenance costs.
