Important Features of Our Products
It’s not as simple as bending metal and cladding wood. There is a tremendous amount of detail that goes into building elevator interiors, cabs, doors, and entrances. Those details aren’t just visual. They are code related and safety related.
Fire Rating is a vital consideration when building entrances and cabs. The riding public needs to be protected in case of an emergency. Make sure that your cab company is using the right fire rated materials. At Miles, this is one of the first considerations we look at when fabricating cabs and entrances.
The ANSI Code is something that all good elevator mechanics are familiar with. Unfortunately, not all cab manufacturers are familiar with it. This is one of the reasons we’re so unique. Our background as elevator technicians gives us a strong insight into the Codes and how to make sure your elevator cabs and entrances are up to code.
The ADA Code is one of the areas that must be considered when manufacturing and designing elevator cabs and entrances. The amount of detail in the ADA code that related to elevator doors and cabs is huge. We know this information inside and out.
