Elevator contractors will find that a modular elevator is the fastest and easiest elevator they will ever install.
There are no rails to hang, cab to assemble, or unprotected heights to dangle from. We’ve done all the assembly work.
"We're going to sell the s**t out of these modulars."

Detailed steps to guide elevator contractors through the installation process.
Elevator contractors should check for all the components needed for set-up on the provided checklist and notify the Phoenix Team immediately if anything is missing. It is crucial that you inspect each arriving component of the elevator. There is a packing list that comes with every elevator, and it is your responsibility to make sure everything has arrived as promised. If something is missing, report it immediately to the Phoenix Team onsite. If the Phoenix Team is not available, contact our project coordinator immediately. Most components are strapped in the area where they are needed. In the part of the hoistway that goes into the pit, you will find buffer springs strapped to the rails. Others will be on the car top, in the machine room or palletized.
The truck will arrive with:
- The modular elevator hoistway with a pre-installed elevator. If a taller hoistway is part of the project, multiple towers will arrive as scheduled.
- The modular machine room (if ordered) or a pallet with the tank and controller strapped to it

Setting the Hoistway
Option B: The traveling cable and hoistway cable are terminated in a junction box at the bottom of the hoistway, and extra lengths of cable are supplied. Cut the cables to the precise length you need and wire them between the terminal box and the controller.
With a modular machine room, all gutter connections are precut and supplied. With a site-built machine room, you supply the gutter and conduit from the hoistway to the controller, controller to power unit, and controller to disconnects.MMR Piping and Wiring
