DIRTY DIRTY old armor single speed elevator that wasn't leveling properly. Changed out the up stop switch which is what tells the when to stop in the up direction. Thought it would be neat to put together some clips from my cell phone and make it a youtube video. Enjoy.

  • As an IT field tech engineer, I wouldn't work on something I have no knowledge or expertise in the elevator field. Thank you for posting this video.

    The elevator at my office broke today and that made me curious how they work. This was very interesting, thanks for uploading!
  • @stlelevators
    This is very fascinating. I enjoy seeing in depth explanations of intricate workings of elevators. Good Work!

    I do industrial refrigeration and have a neighbor who works on elevators. As a service tech I thought, “I wonder if there’s any elevator tech channels like there are refrigeration tech channels... 🤔” and, here we have it! Much respect man 🤙 These are brain busting trades. You got balls to be messing with work inside an elevator shaft, brah... But, I guess that’s what they say about us ammonia techs 🤘I’m gonna go ahead and subscribe 👍

    Love seeing this video! Thanks for sharing. I am very curious on how one would get into this line of work. I am an electrician by trade and went to school for it but have been interested in getting over to elevator work for the last couple years. Would you have any advice on where to get started? Please and thank you

    As you said really a good job for a 1 speed motor. A wheel chair user or baby stroller would have no problem getting on and off the car.

    Good afternoon and a happy new year to you. I have a question if you could be so kind to answer. Ive recently become a elevator mechanic in training, ive took the first job that came my way which was working in the field of residential elevators, but my goal is to work servicing commercial elevators. Could you guide me with any information to be part of that field or the requirements and the path that you took. Much appreciated.

    I'm an airplane mechanic. I work for an airline. Which is pretty much the only way to have a liveable single income nowadays in the US. I want to get away from living in cities (the only real drawback to working for airlines imo) And I've heard you elevator guys make money equal to or better than us. (Just breaking 6 figures) To be an elevator tech, how savy do you need to be? Just basic wire splices, metal shaving/filing and troubleshooting smart? Smarter, like applying seals & sheet metal/welding/more advanced stuff? Dumber? Like part changes & adjusting this & that? (I mean all this objectively. Not calling anyone dumb lol)
