Elevator Emergency

The elevators located in your building are both traction & hydraulic.  If, at any time, there is a power or mechanical failure during operation, the elevator may stop between floors.  If this should occur:

  1. REMAIN CALM.
  2. Press the RED emergency alarm button.
  3. Operate the emergency intercom or telephone located on the control panel in accordance with the instructions.  You will then be connected to the security station operator.
  4. Advise the operator of your building location, and emergency personnel will immediately be dispatched to your aid.

 

The elevators can be lowered without electrical power by qualified personnel.
