Compliance

Elevator rules in USA

Elevators in California are inspected and permitted under Cal/OSHA's Elevator Unit (Division of Occupational Safety and Health); most US jurisdictions adopt ASME A17.1 / A17.3 as the safety code.
Inspection intervals and permit requirements vary by city and county, so we confirm the authority having jurisdiction for every Pasadena project.
Only licensed or registered elevator contractors and mechanics may install, alter or maintain elevators where the state requires it.

FAQ

Pasadena elevator questions

What does an elevator modernization replace?

Usually the controller, drive, door operators and fixtures — sometimes the machine. Shaft, rails and often the car frame are kept.

Who inspects elevators in Pasadena?

In California, elevating devices are regulated by Cal/OSHA's Elevator Unit (Division of Occupational Safety and Health). Devices need a valid licence or permit and periodic inspection; work must be done by qualified contractors and mechanics.

Are platform lifts an option for accessibility?

Yes. Platform lifts and LULA elevators need less space than a full passenger elevator and suit low-rise buildings, places of worship and homes.

Why is our hydraulic elevator slow in winter?

Hydraulic oil thickens in the cold. Unheated machine rooms or pits are a common cause; heating or an oil heater usually fixes it.

Do you work with condo boards and property managers in Pasadena?

Yes — we prepare written recommendations, cost ranges and phasing plans that boards and managers can take to owners.
