Why Residential Elevator Maintenance Matters

Residential elevators improve accessibility and quality of life — but like any mechanical system, they require regular care to stay safe and reliable over time.

Proper elevator maintenance helps you:

  • Prevent unexpected breakdowns
  • Extend system lifespan
  • Maintain optimal safety standards
  • Avoid costly emergency repairs
  • Preserve smooth and efficient operation

Whether your home elevator is newly installed or has been part of your home for years, proactive maintenance is the best way to protect your investment and give you peace of mind.

A Legacy of Elevator Expertise in California

Dwan Elevator Company’s deep experience in residential elevator systems begins with a story rooted in California elevator history. Originally founded as Dwan Elevator in 1931, the company was one of the first residential elevator and stairlift providers in the state.

Over time, it evolved into The Inclinator Company of California (ICOC), a trusted name in Southern California vertical transportation. ICOC completed thousands of residential elevator installations throughout the region and became widely known for craftsmanship, reliability, and technical know-how.

Today, that legacy continues with Dwan Elevator Company, backed by modern service standards, trained technicians, and a long-standing commitment to supporting homeowners with attentive maintenance and support.

Comprehensive Residential Elevator Maintenance Services

Every home elevator is unique — from its design and technology to its usage and location within your home. That’s why Dwan Elevator Company offers custom maintenance plans tailored to your specific system and needs.

Our maintenance services include:

Scheduled Preventive Inspections

Routine checkups that identify wear, alignment issues, or early signs of mechanical fatigue before they become problems.

Safety System Testing

Thorough evaluation of safety components such as emergency brakes, door sensors, and control mechanisms to ensure compliance with performance standards.

Lubrication & Mechanical Adjustments

Precision tuning of moving parts and mechanisms to minimize wear and reduce friction for quieter, more efficient operation.

Control System Diagnostics

Comprehensive scanning and testing of elevator controls and electrical components to catch issues before they impact performance.

Cleaning & Component Care

Attention to key areas such as tracks, motors, and contact points to keep your elevator system clean and working smoothly.

Flexible Maintenance Plans for Your Home

We understand that every homeowner’s situation is different — some elevators are used daily, and others operate less frequently. That’s why we offer maintenance plans built around your usage and schedule.

Choose from:

  • Annual Maintenance Plans
    Optimal for occasional usage or smaller systems.
  • Semi-Annual Plans
    Great for moderate use and balanced preventive care.
  • Quarterly Maintenance Plans
    Recommended for high-usage elevators or systems in larger homes.

We’ll recommend the best cadence based on your elevator type, usage patterns, age of equipment, and performance history — always aiming for the right balance of safety and cost-effectiveness.
