Aurora elevator inspections, upgrades & major projects

In Aurora, most of our projects begin with an inspection order or a maintenance contract that no longer controls downtime. We survey the equipment, read the reports and build a modernization scope that fixes the cause.

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.

FAQ

Aurora elevator questions

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.

What does a condition survey include?

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

When should a Aurora building modernize its elevators?

When parts for the controller are hard to source, callbacks are rising, or inspection orders keep recurring. A condition survey shows whether you're there yet.

Will modernization reduce energy use?

Modern drives and LED lighting usually reduce elevator energy use compared with older motor-generator or relay systems.

How much does elevator modernization cost in Aurora?

Cost depends on the number of cars and stops, whether the machine is replaced, door equipment and finishes. A condition survey produces an itemized scope and cost range; phasing spreads the spend.

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 Aurora project.
Only licensed or registered elevator contractors and mechanics may install, alter or maintain elevators where the state requires it.
