Just like all types of transportation, routine maintenance is necessary, not only to keep them in good working condition but also safe for those who occupy them. Elevators should be thought of with the same logic. By having routine maintenance completed, it allows for the following:

1. Identify issues prior to them becoming problematic. Issues that start out small, if not caught early, can lead to major repairs that become much more costly.

2. Keep the unit in good working condition by cleaning, lubricating and making any necessary adjustments to the operating components.

3. Reduce the risk of Liability to the building owner.
