  2. 403-700-7300 Today, architects dream of reaching the clouds and creating a beautiful skyline to form the backdrop of cities and towns. However, a skyscraper without a lift is an unthinkable proposition as it is almost impossible to climb up so many floors using staircases. The installation of lifts or elevators, thus, forms a mandatory part of the construction of these high-rises and an elevator installer has a very crucial role to play in the same. http://www.ascensionelevators.com/ info@ascensionelevators.com

  3. 403-700-7300 What are elevator installers? These installers are actually elevator constructors or mechanics who are entrusted with the job of installation, maintenance and repair of various kinds of elevators like normal lifts, moving walkways, chairlifts etc.It is not the job of a single individual and hence there are numerous companies who employ specialised personnel and possess the required machinery and tools to do this job. http://www.ascensionelevators.com/ info@ascensionelevators.com

  4. 403-700-7300 Duties of a lift installer • The job of a lift installer is divided into three stages: • Stage 1 where in they install the required type of escalator or elevator in the concerned building, • Stage 2 wherein they tie up with a customer and undertake the job of maintaining an already installed elevator and • Stage 3 wherein they are called in to repair elevators already installed in buildings and residences, either by them or by a third party. • The above given different stages only give an overview of the sum total of the job of an elevator installer. continue…. http://www.ascensionelevators.com/ info@ascensionelevators.com

  5. 403-700-7300 However, a detailed look at the duties of the same would show that the job includes: • Determination of the types of equipment required for a lift installation on the basis of the blueprint drawn by a civil engineer, • Facilitating the proper installation or repair of the required cables, control systems and motors etc., based on the design, • Keeping a regular check to ensure no malfunctioning occurs in the control systems, brakes, motors and switches of the lift installed, • Ensuring proper connection of the electrical wiring to the motors and control panels of the lift being installed, • Using the required instruments such as voltmeters and ammeters to ensure smooth functioning of the lift and prevent failures resulting from electrical anomalies, • Adjusting the door mechanisms, safety controls and counterweights in the correct manner, • Ensuring that the installed lift complies with all the required building safety codes and regulations set by the government and • Keep a detailed log book or service record of all repair and maintenance work carried out. http://www.ascensionelevators.com/ info@ascensionelevators.com

  6. 403-700-7300 Qualities required to become a lift installer Some of the other requirements of these lift mechanics are: • The ability to keep accurate and detailed records of service schedules, • The knowledge and ability to handle a wide variety of mechanical tools including hand tools and power tools, • The physical stamina to perform this kind of long-durational strenuous job, • The physical strength and ability to lift heavy equipment like conduits, metal tracks, escalator steps etc. and • The ability to quickly diagnose and troubleshoot any problems which might hamper the proper functioning of these elevators and lifts. http://www.ascensionelevators.com/ info@ascensionelevators.com

  7. 403-700-7300 Since this job involves both installation and troubleshooting, an elevator installerneeds to have a thorough knowledge of hydraulics, electricity and electronics. It is a fact that most elevators or lifts installed today are operated by highly complex systems and mechanisms involving computerised control panels. Thus experience and knowledge in the relevant field, both play a very important role in ensuring that a lift installation job is done to the required building standards.
