H&B Elevators manufactures standard and custom elevator cabs, entrances and doors to meet the demanding need for architectural beauty and quality in vertical transportation. An outstanding architectural design means an outstanding end product. H&B works closely with architectural firms to create spectacular elevator cabs.

  The birth of all elevator entrances and cabs start in our Break & Shear department. All of the steel used to construct each elevator piece is sheared at a very close tolerance to ensure premium quality. Afterwards, these sheared pieces can also be sent to our state of the art laser turret where intricate holes can be cut flawlessly. These parts then enter the break area where they are formed into a state where they can be easily welded to other formed pieces to make the final elevator part.

  The next step in an elevator parts' journey can be one of three places: Door, Frame or Cab Shop. In the Door Shop, the face and the liner are welded together to produce an extremely durable elevator door. If the parts were sent to the Frame Shop, the head and side jams for the elevator entrance will be welded for on-site assembly. Or the parts could be sent to the Cab Shop, where they will be welded and bolted together to make up elevator cab walls and ceilings. After these parts are welded together, they are sent to our Paint Department where they are finished and painted with speed and a high level of quality.

  In our Paint Department, each elevator piece is prepped for the painting process by grinding and buffing all welds and imperfections out of the steel. After these parts are prepped for perfect paint or clad adhesion, they are painted using a state of the art electro-static paint sprayer. When the painted parts exit our hi-temp oven, they are unloaded from the conveyor line to cool down. Now the elevator parts are ready to be wrapped and crated for shipment. We strive to economize wherever possible, by shipping our products as efficiently as possible. Similar objects are wrapped and stacked together to use the least amount of space possible in our warehouse and shipment trailers.
