A Legacy of Residential Elevator Excellence in California
The roots of Dwan Elevator Company date back to 1931, when J.E. Dwan founded Dwan Elevator, making it one of California’s original residential elevator and stairlift companies. Over time, the company evolved into what became known as The Inclinator Company of California (ICOC) , name long associated with craftsmanship, innovation, and reliability throughout Southern California.
Across decades of service, ICOC installed more than 8,000 residential elevators in the region, serving homeowners, architects, and builders across a wide range of residential properties. During its peak years, the company operated multiple installation crews and became a dominant force in the Southern California residential elevator market.
Today, that history and expertise continue through Dwan Elevator Company, combining a storied legacy with modern systems, current building standards, and a renewed focus on customized residential solutions.
