Buildings in Bloomington

Normal

Every Northline Elevators installation in Bloomington 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.

Seasonal swings, rain and humidity make pit drainage and corrosion checks part of routine maintenance.

Compliance

Elevator rules in USA

Elevators in Illinois are inspected and permitted under the Office of the State Fire Marshal (with the City of Chicago for Chicago buildings); most US jurisdictions adopt ASME A17.1 / A17.3 as the safety code.
Inspection intervals and permit requirements vary by city and county, so we confirm the authority having jurisdiction for every Bloomington project.
Only licensed or registered elevator contractors and mechanics may install, alter or maintain elevators where the state requires it.

FAQ

Bloomington elevator questions

How quiet is a modern home elevator?

Modern residential drives are designed for quiet operation; the exact sound level depends on the drive type and installation.

Do home elevators in Illinois need inspection?

Yes — residential elevating devices must meet the elevator safety code (ASME A17.1 / CSA B44) and local requirements administered by the Office of the State Fire Marshal (with the City of Chicago for Chicago buildings), and usually need a building permit.

Can you match the cab to our interior?

Yes. Panels, ceilings, lighting, flooring and handrails can be selected to match your home, within the car's weight limits.

What maintenance does a home elevator need?

Regular preventive visits, set by the manufacturer and the elevator safety code (ASME A17.1 / CSA B44) requirements, keep it safe and quiet. We keep records for your files.

Are platform lifts safe for daily use?

Yes, when installed and maintained to code. They're a good fit for step-free access over a few levels.
