Action Elevator Company

Action Elevator Company Action Elevator is a true full service elevator maintenance company servicing the DMV area.

Based upon decades of experience within the vertical transportation industry, Action Elevator was founded upon the belief that the elevator service industry is falling terribly short in meeting the needs of their customers. It is a feeling that is palpable in our daily discussions with new clients. Whether it is a property manager, building owner, or facility manager there exists a recurring theme

of frustration with not only the condition of their equipment but also the difficulty with which they have in obtaining the elevator services that they so desperately need. Between reliable PM performance, quality repair needs and third party safety inspection reports, elevator managers and owners were searching for a “no non-sense” alternative to the industry status quo.

An older elevator may still get passengers from floor to floor, but aging components can affect its efficiency, reliability, safety, and overall performance.

Elevator modernization allows building owners and property managers to upgrade key systems without necessarily replacing the entire elevator. From improved ride quality and energy efficiency to updated safety features and controls, the right modernization plan can help extend the life of your equipment while better meeting the needs of your building.

Is your elevator phone still relying on an outdated copper line?

Switching to a modern cellular solution can help lower monthly costs, reduce maintenance needs, and provide dependable emergency connectivity. August is a great time to review your system before fall building traffic picks up.
