URGENT SAFETY NOTICE

Elevators installed with more than 4 inches of “gap space” between the hoistway doors and the elevator car doors can pose a serious safety risk. Children may become entrapped in the space and could be seriously injured or killed. This risk can be reduced with the proper installation of space guards at each floor.

Home Elevator Repair Questions That People Have

When getting a home elevator repair, here are some of the questions that people may ask.

Home elevators do wonders for people who have them. They allow people to live independent lives, even if they have limited mobility that makes getting up and down stairs a challenge. Given the freedom that home elevators provide, you’ll always want them in the best possible condition, and that means repairing your elevator when necessary. When getting a home elevator repair, here are some of the questions that people may ask.

“Should I Repair My Elevator Myself or Get Professional Help?”

While many home projects can be done on one’s own, we don’t recommend taking this approach with a home elevator repair. Elevators are complicated pieces of machinery, and without extensive experience working on them, it’s likely that mistakes will happen during the repair process. There are also safety concerns that come with trying to fix your own home elevator, which is why we always advise that you get professional help when your elevator needs fixing.

“What Should I Consider When Hiring an Elevator Company?”

It’s important to choose a reputable elevator company you can trust when getting a home elevator repair. First, look for a company that employs licensed elevator mechanics. These can prove that they have the credentials to get your repair done successfully. It’s also a bonus if company is getting plenty of recommendations from past customers. The compahy you pick should also be very transparent with you in terms of how the repair will be done, how long repairs should take, and the cost to have everything done. Lastly, trust your instincts. If you don’t feel comfortable with the company you’ve chosen, trust your gut and find someone who makes you feel more confident.
