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.

FAQ’s

What is your response time for service calls?

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.

I dropped my keys in the pit now what?

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.

Are your maintenance contracts customizable?

Yes. Our maintenance contracts are customizable to meet the needs of the equipment and building.

How do I know if I need a modernization?

Elevator modernization is something you should be able to plan for. 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.

How do I update owners information or change of address with TSSA?

All forms can be found directly on the TSSA’s website. Under Common Forms you can find the Application for an Elevating Device Licence Ownership/Licensee Change form or a Elevating Devices – Change of Information Form.
