Why Elevator Parts Delays Shouldn’t Leave You Powerless – Here’s How ElevatorApp Can Help

5 powerful solutions to elevator parts delays and how ElevatorApp ensures fast, efficient service when it matters most.

If you manage, own, or operate a building with an elevator, you’ve likely heard it before: “We’re still waiting on the elevator parts” or “ We cant find the part” or “The elevator part is not available” What used to be an occasional inconvenience has become a frustrating norm. Whether you’re dealing with one elevator or several, you are often at the mercy of your service provider’s ability or to secure needed parts. But what if you didn’t have to wait in the dark? What if you could take back control?

Understanding the Elevator Parts Shortage

Over the past few years, sourcing elevator parts has become increasingly difficult due to global supply chain issues, tariff shifts, labor issues, business strategy and economic fluctuations. Almost all the elevator and escalator parts are being manufactured overseas resulting in longer lead times, potential quality issues and higher costs. Elevator service providers now frequently cite delays, unavailability, or obsolescence of parts often leaving building personnel frustrated and uninformed.

But here’s the truth: you may have options since many parts are still available or can be potentially fixed. They may have long lead times, but they are not truly obsolete. Some of these elevator components can even be refurbished or repaired, potentially at a lower cost and quicker turnaround. The lead times will vary based on what exactly the parts are.

The Real Problem: Lack of Transparency

The real challenge isn’t just the lead time it’s the lack of transparency. Building managers and owners often have no insight into the part sourcing process or alternatives available. That’s where ElevatorApp comes in.
