FAQ
Usually several weeks per car, depending on scope. We phase multi-car buildings so at least one elevator keeps running.
Yes — elevating devices are subject to periodic inspection and testing requirements under the elevator safety code (ASME A17.1 / CSA B44) as adopted in California, administered by Cal/OSHA's Elevator Unit (Division of Occupational Safety and Health). We schedule and document required tests.
Yes — car controls, signals, door timing and, where needed, platform or LULA lifts.
The order lists deficiencies and a deadline. We quote and schedule the corrections so the device stays licensed with Cal/OSHA's Elevator Unit (Division of Occupational Safety and Health).
Yes — a capital plan lists each car, its condition and the recommended timing and cost range of work.
Oakland metro
In Oakland, 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.
Where a building in Oakland needs better accessibility, we combine modernization with upgraded signals, door timing and car controls.
Seasonal swings, rain and humidity make pit drainage and corrosion checks part of routine maintenance.
