Pricing
What goes into elevator contract pricing.
A lot goes into an elevator contract, and the biggest factor is the work you're asking for. Whatever that is, we'll always give you a fair and transparent price.
What moves the number
Three things drive elevator service cost.
Cost drivers
A two-stop hydraulic and a thirty-story traction group are different machines with different service demands. Older equipment often has more moving parts, which affects pricing.
A hospital service car works harder than an office elevator with light traffic. The harder an elevator works, the more visits and parts it needs.
Whether parts and repair labor are included in the agreement or billed separately is the biggest structural driver of the monthly number. Neither model is wrong; they price differently because they carry risk differently.
Agreement structures
Two ways maintenance is priced.
| Term | Full-maintenance agreement | Lube-and-services agreement |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly price | Higher | Lower |
| What's included | Most parts and repair labor included in the monthly price. | Lubrication, examination, and adjustment. Repairs billed separately. |
| Who carries repair risk | The provider carries the repair risk, so there are fewer surprise invoices. Read the exclusions list to see exactly what is covered. | Building carries repair risk. Cheaper monthly; budget for repairs as they arise. |
