Compliance
Chicago metro
Every Crestline Elevators installation in Chicago starts in the home: we measure, review drawings with your architect or builder, and recommend a lift that fits both the space and the way you live.
We coordinate permits and inspection with the Office of the State Fire Marshal (with the City of Chicago for Chicago buildings) so your home elevator is approved and ready to use.
Cold winters, road salt and grit wear door sills and tracks, and hydraulic cars slow down in unheated spaces.
