The founders of Custom Elevator Manufacturing Company have over 150 years of combined experience in the manufacture, installation and service of various types of elevators. The partners of this family-owned business were the first to bring the roped hydraulic elevator to the U.S. market.

Our products are sold and distributed through a network of factory trained and certified dealers located throughout the United States and Canada. All of our dealers receive full manufacturer’s support throughout the entire installation process and through service after sale, including our factory owned local dealer HomeLift of America Inc. servicing Eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Direct feedback from our own field organization enables us to make continuous improvements to our products assuring our customers a smooth and efficient installation.

Our facility, located just 40 miles north of Philadelphia, PA, has evolved over the years to meet our customers’ ever-increasing market demands. All of our administrative and manufacturing operations are consolidated into a modern 68,000 sq. ft. facility in Plumsteadville, PA.

At Custom Elevator Manufacturing Company Inc., our main focus is on service beyond the sale and our top priority is always the customer.
