Tigard · Oregon, USA
Ageing controllers, rising callbacks and inspection orders are the three reasons Tigard owners call us. We turn them into a phased modernization plan.
How it works
Every car documented: age, controller, parts and history.
A written modernization scope with options.
Car-by-car sequence, dates and cost ranges.
Commissioning, inspection and handover documents.
FAQ
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.
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 the state or local elevator authority.
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.
Modern drives and LED lighting usually reduce elevator energy use compared with older motor-generator or relay systems.
Portland metro
Buildings in Beaverton, Lake Oswego, Portland and Hillsboro 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 the state or local elevator authority acceptance.
Cold winters, road salt and grit wear door sills and tracks, and hydraulic cars slow down in unheated spaces.
