elevator service

Vertical transport upkeep

Elevator service refers to the operation and availability of elevators in a building: The elevator service was down for maintenance.

It also means the professional work of installing, maintaining, or repairing elevators: We called for elevator service after the car got stuck.

In hospitality, elevator service can mean staff-operated lifts rather than self-service ones.
