Delta Elevator Co. Ltd. continues to be the contractor of choice when clients require cost effective and timely elevator upgrading solutions.

Life Cycle Planning

Several varying factors contribute to life expectancy of elevators including original equipment design, quality of original installation, operating environment, previous maintenance attention and duty cycle to name a few. Obsolescence and parts unavailability contributes to extended elevator service down time. The effects of long term electrical deterioration of wiring and electrical components continue to increase the inconsistent operation of many elevators.

 

Despite regular servicing and component repairs, the overall operational integrity of elevator systems will continue to deteriorate based on the culmination of these facts.

 

Building owners and their management teams recognize the importance of a reliable and efficient elevator system in their building infrastructure. With the average age of residential tenancy increasing and commercial tenancy expectation of efficient service, many clients have elected to undertake elevator modernization programs that offer dramatic elevator operational improvements and solve frustrating tenancy disapproval.

Non-Proprietary Elevator Equipment

Elevators and elevator components range in their proprietary nature. Prior to making a purchase decision for a new elevator or controller, it is important to understand how an installation will be affected by the proprietary nature of the product under consideration. Please see Delta's Non-Proprietary Elevator Equipment worksheet for addition information on this critical issue.

 

Delta controllers are available with or without a diagnostic tool, which can also be purchased as an after market item. Delta stands behind its product 100% and supports its elevators whether they are maintained by Delta or by another contractor.
