Compliance and Safety

Safety and code compliance are not optional and not negotiable. Axxiom Elevator Nashville provides inspection support, testing and corrective work so your commercial elevator equipment stays aligned with the safety code adopted in your jurisdiction — across the Nashville metro and elsewhere in Tennessee by travel from a Nashville base.

Standards We Work To

Elevator safety is governed by consensus codes, and separately by federal accessibility and workplace-safety law. We work to those standards and follow changes to them as they are published and adopted.

Compliance Standards

Compliance work is documented, not assumed. A visit produces a record of what was inspected, what was found and what was corrected, so you can show the authority having jurisdiction the same thing we see.

Ensure Compliance and Prioritize Safety

Requirements come from more than one place: the elevator safety code adopted in your jurisdiction, the ADA for accessibility, and OSHA for workplace safety. We work to all three, and coordinate with the authority having jurisdiction on anything it raises.

The consensus safety code covering design, construction, installation, operation, inspection, testing, maintenance, alteration and repair of elevators and escalators. Our work follows it.

The safety code for existing installations. It sets the minimum requirements older equipment is brought up to, and it is what modernization and upgrade work is measured against.

Electrical work on elevator equipment — controllers, drives, disconnects and machine-room wiring — follows the National Electrical Code.
