SCHOOLS, UNIVERSITIES & EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

When schools are in session, elevators experience a heavy amount of regular usage, which means parts wear out faster. Modernizing your elevator not only replaces worn parts and equipment, but also upgrades your elevator to improve safety and efficiency and accommodate new features, such as energy-saving technology and new security or accessibility requirements.

Generally no, most school elevators will have the same size and weight requirements as regular passenger or freight elevators. In the event that you do have a unique design need for an elevator, we can provide design assistance to ensure it complies with local codes and elevator standards.
