Overview

How we repair your Elevator

A residential elevator is a small cab that moves between floors in a shaft using a hydraulic, traction, cable drum or vacuum drive, with landing doors, a gate and a controller. An elevator uses a drive motor or hydraulic pump, a drive system of chains, belts, screws or cables, limit switches, safety sensors and a control board. A technician checks power and controls, safety devices, and the condition and alignment of the drive system.

Diagnosis

Common Elevator problems we fix

What usually causes each symptom, and what our technician checks to confirm it.

Doors or gate will not open or close

Likely causes
A failed door operator, a misaligned interlock, or a damaged accordion gate.
What our technician checks
The door operator, interlock and gate track are inspected and adjusted.

Does not level with the floor

Likely causes
Worn leveling sensors, hydraulic fluid temperature changes, a leaking valve, or a slipping drive.
What our technician checks
Leveling is measured at each floor, sensors are adjusted and the drive or hydraulic system is checked for drift.

Cab will not move

Likely causes
A landing door or cab gate not fully closed, a tripped safety circuit, a power outage, or a controller fault.
What our technician checks
The technician reads controller fault codes and checks every door lock and safety switch in the circuit.

Rough or jerky ride

Likely causes
Worn guide rollers or shoes, dry rails, or valve and drive settings out of adjustment.
What our technician checks
Rails, rollers and drive settings are inspected and the ride is tested between floors.

Battery lowering not working during outages

Likely causes
Weak emergency batteries, a failed battery charger, or a lowering valve fault.
What our technician checks
The emergency battery and charger are load-tested and the lowering function is simulated.

Emergency phone or alarm not working

Likely causes
A dead phone line or cellular module, a failed alarm bell, or a disconnected wire in the travel cable.
What our technician checks
The phone, alarm and travel cable are tested.
Before you call

Quick checks you can do safely

  • Make sure every landing door and the cab gate are fully closed.
  • Check that the elevator disconnect and breakers are on.
  • Look for objects blocking the gate or door tracks.
  • Note any fault code on the controller display to share with the technician.
  • Test the emergency phone and alarm button.

Safety first: Elevator shafts, pits and door interlocks are serious crush and fall hazards, so never bypass a door lock or enter the shaft yourself.

Most elevator repairs fall roughly between $300 and $2,000, depending on the part and labor involved. That is a national ballpark estimate; you get an exact quote after diagnosis and before any work starts.

Can you repair my elevator the same day?

Often, yes. Call (844) 442-1999 early in the day and we will try to schedule a same-day visit. Same-day service depends on technician availability and whether the part is in stock.

Is the repair guaranteed?

Yes. Completed repairs are covered by a 90-day parts-and-labor warranty. If the same problem comes back in that time, we come back and fix it.

Which brands do you service?

We work on all major brands, including KONE, Otis, Schindler and ThyssenKrupp.

Should I repair or replace my elevator?

A typical elevator lasts about 20 to 30 years. If yours is well within that range and the repair costs less than half the price of a new one, repair is usually the better value. Our technician will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
