Planning an elevator interior project
Practical guidance for Manhattan co-op and condo boards, property managers, architects, and commercial building teams comparing repair, refinishing, and a complete elevator interior remodel.
A full elevator cab renovation in Manhattan — including the ceiling, lighting, flooring, wall panels, and handrails — typically starts around $25,000. Final cost depends on cab size, existing conditions, materials, and scope. Buildings also require a proper Certificate of Insurance (COI) before work begins.
It depends on the condition and materials. If it's simple wear and tear on the metal — light scratches or a dulled finish — we can check whether it can be refinished and polished in place. But if the panels are damaged, made from non-metal materials, or the design and lighting are dated, renovating the interior is usually the better next step.
An elevator interior upgrade can include wall panels, ceilings, LED lighting, flooring, handrails, doors, trim, and fixture finishes. The work can range from a focused repair to a complete elevator cab remodel.

Yes. We plan fabrication off site and coordinate installation around residents, tenants, deliveries, and elevator availability. Before site work, we provide the proper Certificate of Insurance required by the building or property manager.
Tell us what looks worn, what you want to preserve, and what the building needs. We’ll help define whether restoration, selective replacement, or a complete remodel makes sense.
