New Mexico elevator codes impose a responsibility on building owners and property managers to adhere to specific requirements within elevators, ensuring the safety of all occupants. Failure to comply with these codes can result in penalties and potential legal action. While the particulars of the New Mexico elevator code may differ at the state and local levels, three primary codes govern elevator safety: the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), the International Building Code (IBC), and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
ADA
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mandates unrestricted and equal access to services for individuals with disabilities.
IBC
The International Building Code (IBC) establishes precautions against hazards associated with constructed environments.
ASME
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) plays a pivotal role in the development of codes and standards.
The State of New Mexico (NM) currently operates under the 2013 ASME A17.1 and CSA B-44 Code
New Mexico Elevator Code Authority
Authorities having jurisdiction are those government officials who are the final authority on questions in a particular area (or jurisdiction). We could not locate a New Mexico elevator division at this time.
We have contacted the State and will update this web page as soon as more information is available. We suggest you contact your local counties and municipalities regarding elevator safety and permitting requirements before proceeding with any elevator work. It is also important to note that ASME A17.1a states that all elevators have the annual pressure or safety test, and, if applicable, the five-year full load test.
