What To Do In A Middle Of Elevator Service Bend Malfunction

By Linda Cantrell


There are a lot of tall buildings rising nowadays. Some are still under construction, some have been standing for long and some have just opened. These infrastructures are all built for random purposes. And considering their height, all of them sure has elevators.

Elevator service bend is available almost everywhere. As long as the building is above 5 floors, there should be an elevator. They are most needed by people who are in a rush, carrying something heavy or just too lazy. There are unavoidable instances when the elevator breaks down. Here are some tips you can do when you are stuck inside.

Keep yourself calm. Never panic because this just empties your mind. You sure will not be able to concentrate on doing the right thing. Stay positive by thinking that there really is someone working on the matter.

Exhale and inhale while inside. Relax your mind and body. Try to think about something else which is positive.

If the breakdown also causes the lights to turn off, you can use your cellphone to brighten the little space where you are at. Always be ready for times like this by bringing a handy flash light especially when you ride a lift on a regular basis.

Since you are riding the machine on a regular basis, you must be familiar as to where the emergency button is. Make sure to press that button the moment the machine stopped functioning. It is a way for you to be able to notify the management that something is wrong with the elevator and that someone is stuck inside. Do it every after 10 to 15 minutes to make sure that people outside will really notice you and the state of the elevator. It might take a few minutes for a technician to fix it.

You may also try to forcibly open the doors. There are times when this is possible. Once opened and there is a sure way to get out, do so immediately.

Make sure you have something to eat inside your pocket or bag. Even a small sized sandwich or some pieces of candies would do. You do not actually need to have so much as the emergency would not take days to be over. Just make sure that there will be something you can munch if you feel hungry inside. At least you will be energized.

Always make sure that you have your phone with you and that it is fully charged. You can also have any handy gaming consoles inside to help you keep calm and focus your attention to something else while waiting for everything to be fixed. Always make sure that there will be something you have that can takeaway your fear and panics. It does not help if you keep on shouting inside too. You will have your way out in no time when your attention is on something else. Just to add up on tips for your safety, allow other passengers to go out first before entering to avoid chaos. Make sure that you are holding your kids so you can protect them from anything that might happen while inside.
