Owners across the York Region area tell us the same story: the elevators still run, but parts take weeks and every breakdown costs tenants a day. Modernizing before the controller fails completely is cheaper and far less disruptive.

Typical scope in Markham: new controller and drive, door operators and restrictors, hall and car fixtures, and — where needed — machine replacement. Shaft, rails and car frame are usually retained.

Cold winters, road salt and grit wear door sills and tracks, and hydraulic cars slow down in unheated spaces.

FAQ

Markham elevator questions

How long is each elevator out of service during modernization?

Usually several weeks per car, depending on scope. We phase multi-car buildings so at least one elevator keeps running.

What does a condition survey include?

Equipment age and type, controller generation, parts availability, inspection history, callback log review and a recommended scope.

Can you plan a 10-year elevator budget for our building?

Yes — a capital plan lists each car, its condition and the recommended timing and cost range of work.

Do you handle accessibility upgrades?

Yes — car controls, signals, door timing and, where needed, platform or LULA lifts.

When should a Markham building modernize its elevators?

When parts for the controller are hard to source, callbacks are rising, or inspection orders keep recurring. A condition survey shows whether you're there yet.
