Skyline · Truck-company system
A complete truck-company system for hoistway access, equipment-room control, and alternate poling — purpose-built picks for major elevator manufacturers, plus LOTO-ready tools that cut scene time and reduce avoidable door damage.
Who it’s for
Built for fire departments, truck and ladder companies, technical rescue teams, and industrial emergency responders who handle elevator entrapments. If your crews need a standardized, labeled pick set that covers side-opening, center-opening, freight, and manufacturer-specific interlocks — with machine-room lockout support in the same system — this kit is designed for that mission.
Kit capabilities
Labeled tools, a field-station pick bag, machine-room control, and a planned poling path — so crews train the same way they deploy.
01
Side, top, and specialty picks sized and shaped for the door locks crews actually meet on scene — including GAL, Mitsubishi, Otis (legacy and Gen2-era rake), Fujitec, Westinghouse, Schindler, Dover, ThyssenKrupp, and Kone. Labeled tools speed selection under pressure.
02
Cordura nylon bag with a full-zip unfold: picks and support tools staged on both flaps so the right tool is visible at the vestibule. Includes wedges, salvage cord, dedicated screwdriver, and a duty flashlight for tight door gaps and low light.
03
When the car is in the floor zone and power is secured, the stainless paddle creates the clutch movement that unlocks center-opening doors from the hallway — often avoiding more invasive methods when conditions allow.
04
Pipe wrench, groove-joint pliers, access tools, gloves, locks, hasps, and tags in one bag so the equipment-room team can isolate the main-line disconnect, support drifting when required, and leave clear “Do Not Operate” guidance for the elevator technician.
05
Extension and fixed poles with hook and light for poling across from an adjacent secured car (preferred), or poling down/up when picking isn’t the right option — giving crews a planned alternate path to the interlock.
06
Folding step stool for tall hoistway doors, labeled pick organization for rapid ID, and a four-part kit architecture (pick bag, equipment-room bag, pole bag, stool) sized for apparatus carry and repeatable training.
What’s included

Order
Equip every truck with a single, labeled elevator-access system — picks for the doors you meet most, machine-room control for LOTO, and poling when the hallway pick isn’t enough. Reduce improvisation, limit door damage, and get occupants out with a kit your crews can train on the same way every time. Request a quote or add the Elevator Rescue Kit to your apparatus order.
