Elevator buttons are one of the most-used parts of any lift system. They help passengers interact with the elevator every day, like selecting a floor and opening or closing the door. At Lift-Spares, we carry a wide range of replacement elevator buttons from top brands, including OTIS, Schneider, and Kone.
What Are Elevator Buttons?
An elevator button is the interface between passengers and the lift. Located inside the car and on each floor, these buttons send signals to the control system to move the elevator where it needs to go. There are a few different kinds of spare elevator button parts, like the button base, accessories, and the call button symbols.
These buttons are used constantly. It’s not uncommon for a button to stick or stop working over an extended period of use. However, if even one button sticks or stops working, it can disrupt the entire system.
Push Contact Buttons
Elevator push contact buttons or contact blocks are the parts behind the actual elevator button. When a rider presses a floor or call button, the contact block completes an electrical circuit, sending a signal to the elevator system to move or perform a function. You may need a replacement if the original one wears out, stops responding, or gets damaged from frequent use, moisture, or electrical faults.
Are you looking for reliable and durable push button contact blocks? Shop for parts from industry-leading brands like IDEC and SIEMENS. We have contact buttons in stock and ready to ship.
Emergency Stop Buttons
An elevator stop button is a safety feature that allows passengers or technicians to immediately stop the lift in case of an emergency. These red buttons are typically located in the cabin and on control panels, and are designed to be as visible as possible. In most places, elevator safety codes require a working emergency stop button in freight elevators, service lifts, and lifts without automatic doors.
If your elevator's emergency stop button is damaged, unresponsive, or no longer up to code, it's time for a replacement. Shop online for emergency stop buttons for elevators and lifts at Lift-Spares, and we’ll ship your items to you, no matter where you are.
Elevator Call Buttons
An elevator call button is what a rider uses to call the lift to their floor. They’re mounted outside the elevator and signal the system when someone wants to go up or down. These buttons see a lot of action and wear out, stick, or stop responding, especially in high-use buildings.
If your call button is broken or outdated, replacing it helps keep your lift safe, accessible, and easy to use. At Lift-Spares, we stock durable elevator call buttons that are compatible with a variety of systems. Find trusted replacement parts here, ready to ship wherever you are.
