Elevators in Live Oak multifamily and commercial buildings are regulated by Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation rules requiring annual inspections and licensed contractors.
Elevator safety in Live Oak falls primarily under Texas Occupations Code Chapter 754 and the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) administrative rules at 16 TAC Chapter 74. Building owners must have each elevator, escalator, and related equipment inspected annually by a TDLR-licensed inspector and submit the certificate of compliance to TDLR. Maintenance, alterations, and new installations must be performed by licensed contractors. ASME A17.1 Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators is the referenced technical standard. Live Oak building officials verify TDLR certificates at final inspection for new construction. Single-family private residences are exempt from TDLR annual inspection requirements.
