Crestline Elevators focuses on the projects that matter most to a building's value: modernizations, multi-car upgrades, accessibility retrofits and inspection compliance in Addison.

We also review existing maintenance contracts so the new equipment is looked after properly once it is installed.

Cold winters, road salt and grit wear door sills and tracks, and hydraulic cars slow down in unheated spaces.

Compliance

Elevator rules in USA

Elevators in Illinois are inspected and permitted under the Office of the State Fire Marshal (with the City of Chicago for Chicago buildings); most US jurisdictions adopt ASME A17.1 / A17.3 as the safety code.
Inspection intervals and permit requirements vary by city and county, so we confirm the authority having jurisdiction for every Addison project.
Only licensed or registered elevator contractors and mechanics may install, alter or maintain elevators where the state requires it.

FAQ

Addison elevator questions

Do you work with condo boards and property managers in Addison?

Yes. We provide written scopes, cost ranges and phasing that can be presented to owners and approved.

Is there a mandatory periodic safety test for elevators in Illinois?

Yes — elevating devices are subject to periodic inspection and testing requirements under the elevator safety code (ASME A17.1 / CSA B44) as adopted in Illinois, administered by the Office of the State Fire Marshal (with the City of Chicago for Chicago buildings). We schedule and document required tests.

What does a condition survey include?

Equipment age and type, controller generation, parts availability, inspection history, callback log review and a recommended scope.

Can you modernize just the controller?

Sometimes. A partial modernization (controller and drive, or doors) can be the right first step if the machine and other components are in good condition.

How long is each elevator out of service during modernization?

Usually several weeks per car, depending on scope. We phase multi-car buildings so at least one elevator keeps running.
