Greatest Elevator Uptime
Contracts provide the minimum service level required to comply with TSSA
requirements, including routine maintenance during regular visits (cleaning, lubricating, minor adjustments, and visual inspections) and safety tests. Repairs and callbacks are not included.
2
Full Maintenance
We have one of the largest inventories of elevator parts in our warehouse and in our vans, way more than our competitors. Unlike our competition, we can often resolve your problem on the first visit because the part is probably in our van, and you won’t have to wait weeks for it to come in.
Why choose Alcor Elevator?
At Alcor Elevator Ltd, we pride ourselves in a job well done. Our completed new installation projects exceed the customers expectations for design, ride quality and safety.

Only high quality equipment
While many elevator manufacturers have continued to cut corners in their new elevator designs (i.e. thinner steel, cheaper components), we continue to only install high quality equipment. While you can save some money up front, when your elevator needs to be replaced 10 years sooner, all your savings are lost many times over.
4
Don’t get locked in: we only use non-proprietary
Many new elevators are proprietary, or have many proprietary components. If you install a proprietary control system, your only option for a service provider will probably be the installing contractor.
We do not feel there is integrity in this and therefore only install non-proprietary equipment (i.e. we provide any tools necessary so any qualified elevator technician can maintain it).
5
Always the highest value
We are rarely the lowest initial price contractor, however, we are always the highest value. Here’s why:
Our equipment lasts longer
We hit our deadlines, no construction delays (which is added cost / fines / lost revenue)
Any savings you had upfront are gone

Types of elevators
With over 300 devices under maintenance, Alcor Elevator Ltd. services a wide variety of applications and device types.
Hydraulic Elevators
Inground
A common hydraulic design, the inground hydraulic is typical and found across many installations across Ontario. Alcor Elevator Ltd. has experience with this design and currently maintains several of these devices. This design can service up to 6 floors.
Holeless
Avoiding drilling a hole into the ground, the pistons for this device can be found inside the hoistway to raise and lower the car. This design is a great solution for buildings that are located in high water or unstable soil conditions.
Roped Hydraulic
The roped hydraulic allows you to avoid drilling and minimize the risk of corrosion. Limited to its travel restraints, this device can go up to 200 fpm.
Traction Elevators
Overhead Traction
One of the most common elevator applications the over head traction machine is located directly above the elevator. Typically in a pent house, the elevator equipment is easily accessible and easy to access for repairs.
Basement Traction
Less common than the overhead, the basement traction set up is where the machine and major components can be found in the basement. This allows for easy access to the mecahnics for
Machineroomeless (MRL)
The MRL is the newest of elevator technology. The machineroomless design is architecturally pleasing as the majority of the equipment is located within the hoistway.
FAQ’s:
During office hours, our typical response time for emergency calls is 30 mins. After hours, our response type for emergency calls is typically 45 mins. The industry standard is 1 hour.
This is more common than you think, we receive this phone call at least once a month. Contact your maintenance provider to discuss when the technician will next be in the area to retrieve the keys.
Yes. Our maintenance contracts are customizable to meet the needs of the equipment and building.
Elevator modernization is something you should be able to plan for and see coming. As equipment ages, parts and support becoming increasingly harder to find. A standard elevator lifetime is typically 20 to 25 years before requiring a major alteration or modernization. You may start to notice a decrease in ride quality and more frequent breakdowns of equipment, these are tell-tale signs to start planning for a modernization.
