During Wheaton College\u2019s winter break, Len Giuliano, one of our company\u2019s Qualified Elevator Inspectors (QEI certified), conducted training for members of the Wheaton Fire Department. The training focused on elevator emergency evacuation procedures per the A17.4 code of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).<\/p>\n<p>The same class was scheduled during three different shifts to ensure most of the department could attend. Each class of approximately 8 to 15 attendees consisted of a half-hour presentation as well as hands-on training using the hydraulic elevator at Blanchard Hall and one of the traction elevators at Billy Graham Hall.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from detailing proper procedure as per ASME A17.1\/ CSA B44 section 8.6.11.5.4, attendees were taught how to override the elevator\u2019s door restrictors. Doing so not only enables the rescue of passengers, but also minimizes potential damage to the elevator doors.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cOften when the fire department responds to an elevator entrapment, extensive damage occurs as the rescue team extricates the passenger(s),\u201d says Len Giuliano, \u201cOur classes focus primarily on occupant safety with a secondary focus on protecting the building\u2019s property.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>During summer break, Giuliano provided a similar class for the Lemont Fire Department at Lemont High School.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, or to inquire about scheduling a class, <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.colleyelevator.com\/wordpress\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">contact our office<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-2 fusion-flex-container has-pattern-background has-mask-background nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start\" style=\"max-width:1206.4px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-1 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-image-element \" style=\"--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-1 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2340\" height=\"1812\" title=\"WheatonFD_training\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colleyelevator.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/WheatonFD_training-1.jpg\" alt class=\"img-responsive wp-image-3695\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colleyelevator.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/WheatonFD_training-1-200x155.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.colleyelevator.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/WheatonFD_training-1-400x310.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.colleyelevator.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/WheatonFD_training-1-600x465.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.colleyelevator.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/WheatonFD_training-1-800x619.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.colleyelevator.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/WheatonFD_training-1-1200x929.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.colleyelevator.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/WheatonFD_training-1.jpg 2340w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3665","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
