Overview

An elevator interlock system is a safety mechanism that ensures elevator doors are securely closed and locked before the elevator car can move. This system is essential in protecting passengers from falling or being caught in the doors. At PEAK ELEVATOR PARTS, we offer high-quality interlock systems that meet stringent industry safety standards. Our interlock systems prevent the elevator from moving unless all doors are properly closed and locked, reducing the risk of accidents. For more information, you can get in touch with our team.
