What you get from us

Clear information, early.

Hoistway and pit requirements

Electrical and rough-in

Disconnect, lighting, phone line and machine-space requirements handed to your trades in writing.

Permit handling

We prepare the elevator permit application and schedule inspections with the local building department.

Finish coordination

Cab panels, flooring recess, fixtures and door hardware coordinated with your designer.

Service after closing

Your client gets a walkthrough at handover and a local company to call afterwards.

How we fit into the build

Four touchpoints.

  1. Design phase

    Equipment selection and hoistway sizing while the plans can still move.

  2. Framing

    Site check of the hoistway, pit and blocking before drywall.

  3. Installation

    Rails, drive, cab and doors installed once the home is dried in and powered.

  4. Final and handover

    Inspection, adjustment and homeowner orientation before closing.
