Fires
In the event of a fire, please remain calm and exit the building from the building’s stairway, never use an elevator during a fire as the fire could cause the elevator to malfunction, making rescue efforts harder to reach you. The elevator should solely be used by the fighter fighters and the rescue team in the event of a fire
Earthquakes
In many earthquake-prone locations, local codes require special earthquake features on elevator systems. These may include seismic switches which detect movement and shut down the elevator, please check your local codes to ensure that your elevator is up to code.
