For example, children should be properly supervised when using both elevators and escalators, and large items such as baby strollers, heavy luggage, or shopping carts should not be transported on escalators. Below are some helpful tips. Elevator and Escalator Do’s and Don'tsUsing an elevator or escalator properly helps provides for a safe and comfortable ride for everyone. Follow these simple guidelines to prevent injuries and enhance safety.

Before placing a call to the KONE Customer Care Center, please check the following items:Is the Stop button activated?Are all key switches in the normal 'run' position?Is the Independent Service switch in the 'on' position?Is the elevator on Fireman Service?Is there an object (gum, paper, etc.) obstructing the infrared door detector or photo eye?Wipe down the infrared door detector or photo eye with a dry cloth.Is there an object (screw, coin, etc.) in the door sill or track, preventing the door from closing?Are the doors properly closed at all floors?Is the machine room dry and at normal room temperature?For hydraulic elevators, run the car several times to heat up the oil in the power unit and ensure correct operation.If your equipment is not operational after checking the above items, place a service call with the KONE Customer Care Center. Emergency Preparedness Tropical Storm and Hurricane Preparedness for ElevatorsAs we near the height of storms/hurricane season, building managers must understand what's at risk if they don't take the necessary safety precautions with their elevators. If your building is in the storm/hurricane danger zone along the coasts, you don't want to put passengers in unnecessary danger in your elevators following a natural disaster. On top of that, taking precautionary care of elevators can prevent significant damage and avoid costly repairs.KONE has developed a before, during, and after safety checklist to follow in preparation for a storm/hurricane. For example, before a hurricane, it is important to check all sump pumps, float switches, and alarms in elevator pits. During a hurricane, elevators should be parked at the top floor of the hoistway, with the main breaker switched off. After the storm, inspect every part of the elevator for water, and don't turn it on if water is found. Visit our blog to view the entire checklist.

FAQs Current CustomersHow do I convert my current agreement to the new City of Kansas City agreement?

If not, please Register to Participate. To order once registered, send an email to OMNIAPartners@kone.com or call (877) 276-8691. Your request will be forwarded to Kone’s National Account Team for follow-up within 48 hours.How do I know KONE can properly support all of my different types of equipment? KONE currently maintains over 140,000 units in North America. Over 60% of these units were originally manufactured by other companies. Elevators, escalators, power walks, dumbwaiters, handicap lifts and wheelchair lifts are the major products serviced. KONE has a national technical support and training program for non-KONE equipment. If there is a serviceability issue which prevents KONE from being able to properly support a piece of equipment, they will explain the circumstances and politely decline.Can KONE obtain parts for my equipment? (We have some very old units.) KONE Spares serves as the national distribution center for the necessary maintenance and repair parts used by KONE Branch Offices. Spares is dedicated to providing parts for all makes, models and ages of vertical transportation equipment. As an independent division of KONE, they have established purchasing relationships with all the major manufacturers as well as dozens of independent suppliers to the industry. They stock thousands of parts ready to ship immediately. If there is a concern about parts availability, this will be identified during the survey process.What happens if I have special or unique terms & conditions that are mandated to be included in my contract by our legal staff? By utilizing the contract terms in place, the cycle time for contract approval is reduced dramatically. When public agencies have a need for special terms and conditions, we will address these on a case by case basis.What if my elevators and escalators will be coming off of existing contracts on different dates? Multiple or staggered contract dates are not a problem. We are happy to survey and contract for the units that are available now and add units when the current contract expires. This can also be streamlined by using a simple one page rider (Exhibit 4) to add equipment to the existing contract without changing the terms and conditions that have already been established.What if we have a unit that is removed or taken out of service or if we sell a building and have to take units off the contract? This is not a problem. We know circumstances will change over the course of a contract and units can be added or deleted from the contract for reasons such as modernization, building closures, unit decommissioning or units that are no longer used. We can also assist with proper and code required decommissioning if needed. This process can be completed by utilizing Exhibit 4.Can KONE provide additional services for my capital expenditures needs or does the contract just apply to maintenance? It applies to maintenance, repair, modernization and new construction for all vertical transportation equipment. These scopes are detailed in the master contract and available to public agencies regardless of whether they currently have an active maintenance contract in place with KONE. These services can be utilized on a project basis (individualized/separate) without further commitment from the public agency on other services.I noticed that the City of Kansas City agreement has specific MBE/WBE requirements. Do we have to include similar requirements for my contract? No, this is specific to the City of KC agreement. It will be up to each public agency to determine if certain requirements such as MBE/WBE are to be included in their agreement.Why should I consider using KONE for elevator services under this contract? Through this program, you receive the following benefits:Eliminate costly, time-consuming RFP processes for maintenance, repair, modernization and new constructionOMNIA Partners contract includes discounted billing ratesEach agency maintains control and quality of the purchasing process, which allows flexibility to meet their specific needsNew contract term establishes a strategic partnership with each public agency that will provide stability and confidence during the life of the contractCan you explain KONE’s pricing structure? Elevator maintenance and repair is unique for each customer, so pricing is dramatically affected by age, condition, environment, duty, scope and density. KONE’s commitment is to provide the best value solution after having a full understanding of these conditions and the budgetary needs of the Public Agency. KONE professionals will perform a no cost no obligation survey of your facilities to determine the most appropriate service program to enhance the operation and dependability of your equipment. We will then consult with your team to understand any unique circumstances or special needs so we can develop a value-based proposal that includes options for short- and long-term considerations to provide or enhance safety, reliability, performance, and protect the integrity of your equipment. National labor rates and material markups are identified in Exhibit 3 of the Master Contract.
