Legal Update: Florida Elevator Requirements Changing Jan 2024

Beginning January 1, 2024, the state of Florida will retroactively comply with ASME A17.1, as modified by Chapter K3 of Appendix K Section 3.10.12a of the New York City Building Code and A17.3-2015 Section 30.10.12, which requires all Florida elevators be outfitted with a Door Lock Monitoring System (DLM). This system will keep elevators secure until the doors have closed completely.
