Northern Elevator has 24/7 emergency repair service.  We have the experience to repair any aspect of your cable or hydraulic elevator no matter the brand or age.

We stock and carry most of the common elevator parts ranging from 70 year old basement drum machines to newly installed solid state overhead traction elevators.  This means that we are able to quickly repair most of the problems associate with aging elevators saving you down time and reducing customer complaints.

Most hydraulic jacks installed in the past only have a single bottom and were placed directly in the ground.  These in-ground cylinders are prone to corrosion and electrolysis which can lead to small leaks or catastrophic failure of the entire hydraulic system.  Updates in the elevator safety codes require that replacement cylinders have double bottoms, which minimizes serious safety and environmental risks.

Northern Elevator can replace your single bottom cylinder with a double bottom cylinder which is tape coated and installed in a PVC liner.  The thick PVC liner surrounds the sides and bottom of the cylinder and protects the cylinder from ground water electrolysis.  We also install a thick rubberized tape coating as an extra measure of protection.  Taken together, these measures almost entirely eliminate the risk of catastrophic failure.

Over the last several years, there have been substantial State and Federal Code changes.  The public accommodations and commercial facility portion of the Americans with Disabilities Act became effective on January 26, 1992.  Building owners and managers have had additional responsibilities placed on them which include elevator compliance.

Whether you are upgrading the service of your elevator or performing building upgrades, Northern Elevator can evaluate and help bring your building’s elevator up to current ADA code requirements.
