Elevator installation plays a critical role in how a building functions today and how it performs over time. Whether installing an elevator in a new facility, expanding an existing property, or replacing outdated equipment, proper planning and execution are essential for safe and reliable operation.
Murphy Elevator provides elevator installation services for commercial, industrial, and residential properties. Each installation is customized to the building, the environment, and the long-term needs of the owner, with a focus on durability, flexibility, and performance.

Custom Elevator Installation Services

No two buildings operate the same way. Elevator installation must account for how a space is used, how traffic flows, and what demands will be placed on the system over time. Murphy Elevator specializes in custom elevator installations designed around these real-world conditions.
Whether a business has expanded and requires additional vertical access, or an existing building needs a new elevator to improve accessibility, Murphy Elevator works with owners and project teams to design a system that fits the space and supports long-term use. Highly trained technicians are involved early in the process to help plan layout, equipment selection, and system configuration.

Elevator Installation for
New & Existing Buildings

New Construction Projects

Elevator installation for new construction requires close coordination with architects, engineers, and contractors. System layout, shaft design, and equipment specifications must align with building plans and construction schedules.

Murphy Elevator works as part of the project team to ensure elevator installation supports building design, accessibility requirements, and anticipated traffic demands. Early involvement helps prevent delays and ensures the installed system is properly integrated from the start.

Existing Buildings & Replacements

In existing buildings, elevator installation may involve adding a new system or replacing an older one. These projects require careful planning to work within existing structures while minimizing disruption to occupants.

Murphy Elevator installs elevators in a wide range of facilities, including hospitals, hotels, office buildings, power plants, and factories. Each installation is planned with attention to building operations, safety, and scheduling needs.

Nonproprietary Elevator Installation

A key difference in Murphy Elevator’s installation approach is the use of nonproprietary components on every project. Nonproprietary equipment allows building owners to maintain full ownership and control of their elevator systems.

Using nonproprietary components provides several long-term benefits, including:

Nonproprietary parts are typically priced significantly lower than proprietary components supplied by OEM contractors. This approach helps control long-term operating costs while ensuring parts remain available well into the future.

Elevator Installation in Industrial Environments

Industrial facilities place unique demands on elevator systems. Exposure to dust, moisture, temperature extremes, and hazardous conditions requires equipment designed for durability and safety.

Murphy Elevator understands the challenges associated with elevator installation in harsh industrial environments. Systems can be designed for explosion-proof or waterproof applications in accordance with NEMA standards, including:

These capabilities allow Murphy Elevator to install elevators that perform reliably in demanding conditions while meeting safety and regulatory requirements.

Installation Quality, Testing, & Safety

Elevator installation is completed by licensed technicians with formal training and extensive field experience. Once equipment is installed, systems undergo detailed testing and adjustment to verify proper operation.
Testing includes mechanical performance, electrical systems, safety devices, and ride quality. Installation is not considered complete until the system meets performance expectations and all applicable code requirements.
Safety is maintained throughout the installation process, protecting workers, other trades, and building occupants.

Ownership, Service Flexibility, & Long-Term Support

The equipment installed in your building belongs to you. Murphy Elevator’s nonproprietary installation approach ensures owners are not locked into a single service provider or restricted by proprietary systems.
After installation, building owners may choose to work with Murphy Elevator for ongoing maintenance and repair or select another qualified provider. Murphy Elevator also offers 24-hour maintenance and repair services through customized maintenance plans.
This flexibility allows owners to manage elevator service in a way that best fits their operational and budgetary needs.
