Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you wanted to know about elevator phone conversions.

Will cellular work inside our machine room or hoistway?

We perform a signal survey and can add a discreet antenna if needed. Critical sites can use dual-carrier failover.

Do we need one line per elevator?

Many banks can share a seized line with proper priority and labeling. We design per code and site conditions.

What happens in a power outage?

The backup powers the gateway and phone path for 2–24 hours depending on your selected option.

Will this pass inspection?

Yes — we program ADA auto-dial, verify dial-out with dispatch, provide documentation, and label the system.

Can you work with our elevator company?

Absolutely. We coordinate schedules, provide as-builts, and share test logs as needed.

What’s the typical install time?

Most single-cab conversions are completed in a few hours once onsite with access.
