Elevator Violation Corrections & Code Compliance
Services
Failed your elevator inspection? We can help.
If your elevator received a violation or correction order from a state inspector, it’s more than just a notice—it’s a requirement. And if it’s not resolved quickly, it can lead to shutdowns, fines, or worse. At Toledo Elevator, we help property owners and managers correct elevator violations quickly, correctly, and with minimal disruption.
Whether you’re dealing with a minor compliance issue or a major repair mandate, we’ll handle the work and guide you through the re-inspection process—so your elevator stays safe, legal, and operational.

What Are Elevator Violations and
Correction Orders?
When your elevator is inspected by the state or an Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ), they’re checking for compliance with local and national safety codes. If something doesn’t meet those codes, they’ll issue a violation or correction order.
You’re required to fix the issue—usually within a set time frame—and provide documentation that it’s been resolved. That’s where we come in.
We don’t just fix elevators. We help building owners resolve code violations, navigate compliance paperwork, and avoid unnecessary downtime.
Common Elevator
Violations We Fix
We’ve helped hundreds of buildings across Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan resolve violations and pass re-inspection. Even if your system is running fine day-to-day, small compliance issues can lead to big problems if left unresolved. We can help you fix them all. Some of the most common issues we see include:
Missed or expired inspections
Worn or non-functioning safety mechanisms
Improper or missing signage and lighting
Emergency phone not working
Excessive door closing force or faulty door operation
Cab lighting or ventilation issues
Failing to meet updated building or accessibility codes
Obsolete equipment not meeting current safety standards
Why It’s Important to Address Violations Promptly
Getting a correction order isn’t unusual—but ignoring it can lead to serious consequences.
Cities and state agencies may impose daily penalties for unresolved violations.
Unaddressed issues can lead to a red tag or elevator being taken out of service.
Compliance protects your building, tenants, and legal standing.
Non-compliance can jeopardize claims or policies with some insurance carriers.
Your tenants and visitors rely on the elevator every day. Keeping it safe is non-negotiable.
