Architects

Designing the vertical transportation for a building requires more than just picking a size and a speed, it takes careful thought as to building usage, traffic flow, and future use to provide the correct equipment.  At United Elevator Services our professional team will still come to your office and sit down with you to note your goals for a building and make recommendations for the best equipment for your application. We will provide you or assist you with specifications, drawings and other information to ensure your owner has the right equipment for their building.

For your convenience we also are providing the attached information regarding specifications, drawings, product information, codes and safety information.  Again, we are happy to write custom specifications for your project.  For a generic hydraulic elevator specification you can click here or for generic traction specification you can click here.
