Elevator code compliance isn't optional, it's a legal requirement that protects building occupants and owners alike. We provide comprehensive testing and compliance services to keep your elevators safe and compliant with ASME A17.1, ADA requirements, and local jurisdictional mandates.
Annual and five-year testing performed correctly, documented thoroughly, and coordinated with your Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
We evaluate your elevators before official inspections, identifying and addressing issues that could result in violations or citations.
We maintain professional relationships with elevator inspectors throughout Washington and are present during inspections to answer technical questions.
Through our RevealiQ portal, we track testing schedules and code deadlines for every elevator we service, keeping you proactively ahead of requirements.
We document your elevator types, ages, and existing compliance status to determine which testing requirements apply and when.
Our team performs all applicable tests, CAT 1, CAT 5, shunt trip, ADA assessment, to code specifications with thorough documentation.
If issues are identified, we repair deficiencies or coordinate safety retrofits to bring your elevators into compliance before inspection.
We coordinate inspections, are present during AHJ review, and deliver complete compliance records ready for your files.
CAT 1 (Category 1) is annual safety testing required for all elevators. It verifies that safety devices, emergency stops, and operational systems function correctly. We perform all required tests and provide documentation for your AHJ.
CAT 5 (Category 5) is comprehensive five-year testing that includes full-load and no-load safety tests, verifying critical safety systems under actual operating conditions. It's more extensive than annual CAT 1 testing.
Overdue testing (CAT 1/CAT 5/shunt trip), safety device issues (governors, safeties, buffers), door system problems (restrictors, interlocks), firefighter operation failures, machine room condition issues, and missing documentation are the most common violations.
Yes. We perform annual shunt trip testing to verify that your elevator's fire alarm interface works correctly, ensuring elevators respond properly to fire conditions.
Absolutely. We perform pre-inspection assessments to identify and correct issues before the official inspection. We also coordinate scheduling with inspectors and are present during the review to answer technical questions.
We provide code compliance & testing throughout Washington State, dispatched from our Lynnwood headquarters.
