Your home elevator is more than a convenience — it’s an essential part of your daily life. At Dwan Elevator Company, we deliver trusted residential elevator maintenance services throughout Southern California, ensuring smooth performance, dependable safety, and long service life for homeowners.
With roots tracing back to the earliest days of residential elevators in California, Dwan Elevator Company brings decades of experience, technical expertise, and personalized care to every maintenance plan we provide.
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:
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.
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.
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:
Routine checkups that identify wear, alignment issues, or early signs of mechanical fatigue before they become problems.
Thorough evaluation of safety components such as emergency brakes, door sensors, and control mechanisms to ensure compliance with performance standards.
Precision tuning of moving parts and mechanisms to minimize wear and reduce friction for quieter, more efficient operation.

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