Compliance

Elevator rules in USA

Elevators in California are inspected and permitted under Cal/OSHA's Elevator Unit (Division of Occupational Safety and Health); 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 San Jose project.
Only licensed or registered elevator contractors and mechanics may install, alter or maintain elevators where the state requires it.

FAQ

San Jose elevator questions

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.

What standards apply to elevator work in San Jose?

Work follows the elevator safety code (ASME A17.1 / CSA B44) as adopted in California, and devices are licensed and inspected by Cal/OSHA's Elevator Unit (Division of Occupational Safety and Health).

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

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.

Do you handle accessibility upgrades?

Yes — car controls, signals, door timing and, where needed, platform or LULA lifts.

Will modernization reduce energy use?

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

Buildings in San Jose

Santa ClaraCampbellMilpitasCupertino

Buildings in Santa Clara, Campbell, Milpitas and Cupertino span several generations of elevator technology — relay controls in older towers, early microprocessor systems from the 1990s and newer machine-room-less units. Our work starts by identifying which generation you have, because that decides what can be repaired and what should be replaced.

Every project is closed out with test records and documentation ready for Cal/OSHA's Elevator Unit (Division of Occupational Safety and Health) acceptance.

Seasonal swings, rain and humidity make pit drainage and corrosion checks part of routine maintenance.
