Keep your building healthy and clean
Is your commercial elevator being properly cleaned?
Most commercial elevators feature stainless steel construction, an extremely durable metal that generally requires minimal upkeep. However, every elevator owner should know how to properly clean them to ensure safe operation and a clean environment for elevator passengers. Since so many people could use an elevator on any given day, especially through the casinos and hotels of Las Vegas, routine thorough cleaning can help slow the spread of bacteria and disease.
Cleaning doors and walls
Most commercial elevators will have stainless steel walls and doors. Ensure the elevator has stopped completely and use a non-abrasive cleaner to remove dust and mess from stainless steel. You can also use specialized stainless steel cleaning agents, like Sheila Shine, to remove water spots and give stainless steel a clean and polished shine. When it’s time to clean the interior walls, Sheila Shine can also be used. It cleans, polishes and protects and does not leave a strong odor behind; your elevator passengers will not enjoy a ride in a stuffy elevator with a lingering cleaning agent smell.
Cleaning the floors and mirrors
Depending on the type of elevator floor, you may need to brush and vacuum carpeted floors or clean and polish tiled or steel floors. Non-abrasive and non-corrosive cleaners are the best options. Many commercial elevators have low-rise carpeting that can trap dust, dirt, and grime and a powerful cleaner can prevent passengers from tracking these things out of the elevator.
To finish cleaning your elevator, the light fixtures and buttons on the control panel should come last. You can lock the elevator to prevent it from responding to accidental button presses. Use an antibacterial cleaning agent on the elevator buttons, being careful not to spray any cleaner directly on to the buttons that may seep inside the control panel damage internal components. Use a microfiber cloth to clean the buttons and the panel, removing trapped dirt, dust, hair, and other bits stuck around the buttons. Microfiber cloths are also great for cleaning dust and dirt from light fixtures inside the elevator.
