Like Division 14 specifications, design drawings for elevators in the past tended to be little more than a generic "rectangle" within a proposed elevator shaft in hopes that the elevator contractor would fill in the blanks later. No doubt they did, but did they meet the Owner's needs or their own? Today, with even modest short-rise small elevators costing more than one hundred thousand dollars it's more important than ever to make sure that the contract documents reflect the actual project to the extent possible. Architects and Professional Engineers know that too often a lack of coordination among the trades inevitably leads to expensive delays in the project, so they depend on CNYEC to provide accurate design drawings to minimize costly overruns and delays.
CNY Elevator Consultants is independent of any manufacturer. Our Division 14 Specifications and drawings are tailor made for each individual project and are not just a "generic-master" type specification. Our commitment is to the Owner's needs and to providing the Design Professional with the technical expertise that they require to offer the kind of quality building designs that Owners and Developers expect. Elevators, Escalators, and other conveyances are the "odd man out" among construction divisions, stuck somewhere between the Architect's work and the Engineer's work. CNYEC bridges the gap by providing detailed designs that balance the very technical mechanical requirements of machines and controls with the aesthetic requirements of cabs and fixtures.
CNYEC provides drawings for new and renovated elevators, escalators, and other conveyances in the latest AutoCAD© format to Architects and Engineers. Additionally, CNYEC can provide independent detailed shop drawing quality drawings directly to installation companies for their custom design projects in LIFTdesigner© CABdesigner© format.
