Elevator Cab Interiors Are Safer With Modernization and Save Dollars From Costly Mobilization and Downtime Out of Service

(Newswire.net – March 8, 2013) Denver, CO — Elevator cabs or interiors are certainly not an exciting business. But walk into any building over one story tall and see if your impressions are not shaped by your first impression of a shabby, broken or less than appealing elevator trip.  Everything from the wall  to the lighting and the floor are made specificially for each elevator.  No two are alike.  In fact, most elevator companies do not offer any type of finish to the cab itself.  These components are contracted to custom specialists who build interiors, cabinets and flooring.  The problem comes from all the rules that elevators have to follow – the movement, the weight, the electricity, the stability, the comfort.  More things go into making a pleasing and functional elevator cab interior than most people ever think of.

Because of this, very few specialists exist in this field.  It’s also not surprising that so many times, in fact most times, when an elevator is being updated or modernized, or routinely repaired , the time and budget estimates are significantly overrun because the firms doing the work do not have enough background or experience.  They usually expect that they are attaching a few panels to walls with screws or construction adhesive. That’s the reason most elevators stay out of service or experience problems or damage soon after going into service.

“I have stopped counting how many times I have been called by all the major elevator firms here and from as far as 500 miles away to repair elevator cabs.  The interiors are assumed to be an afterthought, but if they are not designed and engineered to withstand the traffic, abuse and movement, then they will be calling me just because I didn’t build it.” say Gene Feher, president of Innovative Elevator Interiors.  With over 20 years builiding a reputation in only this specialty, he has seen everything from airports to offices, casinos, apartments to multimillion dollar mansions.  “Because they know that with my  background, we have never had an elevator cab fail and cause injury or take a lift out of service.  I am called in as the troubleshooter because the original installers didn’t have the experience to solve the problems. And that is what this job is, more problem solving than art.”  

But his biggest concern is making sure he keeps up with the technology, and gets elevators back into service quickly and safely, saving precious dollars for downtime or penalties and violations. New materials, finishes electronics, lighting and flooring materials allow him to design and offer visually stunning elevator cab interiors that have never been created before and make them last through the rigors of tough everyday use. 

Innovative Elevator Interiors is the regions only specialty manufacturer of elevator cab interiors and qualified installer of panels, flooring and electical components.   Gene Feher can be reached in the field at 303-912-5936 cell, or messages at the shop at 303- 423-3043 , FAX 303-423-3044.
