COVID-19 Notice

Preferred Elevator would like to assure our customers that we are taking all necessary steps to do our part in flattening the curve of COVID-19. We have developed a “No Family Contact” process for service, repairs and installations. Our Mechanic, who will be wearing a mask and gloves, will call you when we are at your front door and will discuss the issues or concerns you have with your unit. Our customer can then unlock the door, but there is no need to further greet the Mechanic or be present for the service, repair or installation. Please feel free to move to another part of the home while we are working. Final payment can be left for technician or can be done over the phone with our office.
We greatly appreciate your business during this time.

Sincerely,
Ken Gough

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.

The Importance of Having Elevator Maintenance

The Importance of Having Elevator Maintenance

Keep reading to learn why elevator maintenance is so important for your household.

Any elevator is going to require maintenance in order to keep it running as intended. Elevators that don’t receive the necessary maintenance will not be able to function as well, and they will require larger and more expensive repairs. While we’ve discussed reasons to get elevator maintenance done in the past, there are plenty of other reasons that elevator maintenance is important. Keep reading to learn why elevator maintenance is so important for your household.

Improves the Performance of Your Elevator

Elevators rely on many different mechanical components in order to run smoothly. As these components get older, elevators become less efficient. Elevator maintenance becomes necessary for this reason. By providing upkeep on the different components of your elevator as they get worn down, not only can you improve your elevator’s efficiency, but also raise its lifespan as well.

Save Money on Your Elevator

Elevator repairs can get expensive at times. If repairs only need to be done occasionally, that money will feel well-spent. On the other hand, if you’re constantly repairing your elevator, it can be a bigger problem. Elevator maintenance is important because you can address problems while they’re still small and  less expensive. This keeps repair expenses to a minimum, so you can lower how much money you spend taking care of your elevator.

Feel More Comfortable Using Your Elevator

If you aren’t performing elevator maintenance regularly, you’ll never know for sure whether or not your elevator is ready for use. You want to have the comfort in knowing that your elevator will work just fine while you’re using it, and this can only be done if you stay on top of your maintenance procedures. When you know that you have a well-maintained home elevator, you can feel at ease whenever you’re using it, knowing that your elevator is in the best shape possible.
