Home and Commercial Elevator Maintenance Checklist for Nepal

What an annual maintenance contract (AMC) should cover and why regular servicing matters for lift reliability during power cuts.

What a proper AMC covers

A comprehensive AMC includes monthly inspection, lubrication, safety device testing and emergency response coverage.

Power backup and ARD testing

Regularly test the automatic rescue device that lowers the elevator car during power outages, common in Nepal.

Safety certificate renewal

Many municipalities require periodic elevator safety inspection certificates, particularly for commercial buildings.

Warning signs to act on

Unusual noise, delayed door response or uneven leveling should trigger an immediate service call, not a wait-and-see approach.
