A Family Tradition of Excellence and Innovation Since 1990
Proudly Serving New York with Certified Expertise and a Commitment to Safety
About Us
In the "Elevator Capital of the World," two brothers forged a legacy. Jim and Steve Duffy, armed with decades of experience ingrained from a renowned elevator company, MAINCO, founded Richmond Elevator in 1990. Carrying on a tradition of excellence acquired through MAINCO, they brought unmatched expertise and dedication to New York City's demanding vertical transportation landscape. Andy Duffy’s background and experience as a NYCHPD Inspector and Owner-Operator of Residential Repair Services, tied together the vital intangibles needed in a start-up. Andy trained as a draftsman in the Brooklyn Navy Yard and assisted in building ships for the Navy. Andy was instrumental in developing a Marketing Strategy that brought in Richmond Elevator’s first jobs. Unfortunately Andy passed away in 2017.
Richmond Elevator quickly became a trusted partner for property owners and managers, known for their personalized service and commitment to safety. With a 21,000-square-foot facility housing a fully equipped machine shop, electrical test bench, and extensive electronic inventory, they ensured swift responses and comprehensive solutions for any elevator challenge.
Today, Richmond Elevator continues to serve the Metropolitan Area of NYC, NJ and Long Island with the same dedication and expertise inherited from generations past. Their team of certified technicians provides expert maintenance, repair, and modernization services, ensuring smooth and safe journeys for all.
