Mowrey Elevator

Hydraulic Jack Units

Each Hydraulic Jack Unit must pass a comprehensive inspection from the Mowrey Quality Control team prior to shipping.

Note: In Florida, any elevator with a serial number of 9982 or lower may have a single bottom cylinder. Unless it can be documented to the state that is has a safety bulkhead, it will have to be replaced with a new “double bottom” cylinder with a safety bulkhead.

We offer Hydraulic Jack Units for all applications from in-ground (most commonly recommended) to dual piston holeless and telescopic. Our in-ground jack units are capable of reaching up to eight landings (some restrictions do apply; please see Mowrey Sales Representative for details).

Holeless jack units require no drilling and these applications are to be used on two and three story buildings (some restrictions and requirements do apply; please see a Mowrey Sales Representative for details).

Mowrey Hydraulic Jack Units have the required safety bulkhead on the bottom of each cylinder.

Most hydraulic elevator cylinders are buired underground, and cylinders installed prior to 1972 did not require safety bulkheads. Due to electrolysis or rusting, elevator cylinders typically fail where the bottom is welded on, and if the cylinder fails there is a potential for injury. A safety bulkhead is an internal secondary bottom which prevents the elevator from falling quickly should the bottom of the cylinder have a sudden leak.

Mowrey Elevator Company has operated under the same name and ownership since 1976 and is now one of the largest privately owned elevator companies in the United States.

All equipment, whether manufactured in our plant, or purchased, is of the highest quality and meets or exceeds all local, state and national codes governing elevators.
