Do These 7 Things When Stuck in an Elevator
Trapped in an elevator as you"re reading this? Call 9-1-1 with your cell phone if you have service. Otherwise, read on. You"ll be an elevator escape artist in no time.
1. Stay calm.
Try to keep a clear head so you don"t jeopardize your safety. A clear head will also make sound decision-making a lot easier. If you"re in the elevator with other people, try to calm them down, too. Do a breathing exercise or count down from 100—anything to avoid hysteria. Apartment elevators are incredibly safe, and your life is probably not in danger.
2. Find a light source.
If the elevator lights are out, you"ve probably already turned on your phone light or used a keychain light to see. Be careful not to drain your phone"s battery. Use the flashlight to see the elevator buttons and count how many people are in the elevator.
3. Press the “door open” button.
Occasionally, a stuck elevator needs a little bit of troubleshooting you can do yourself. Start by pressing the “door open” button and see if that works, then press the “door close” button. Both of these can get jammed and stop an elevator. If neither works, try pressing the button for a floor below you. You may be laughing, but this quick fix could save you ample time and stress. If these three buttons aren"t working, however, don"t mash them. You might compromise the electronics.
4. Press the call button.
Use your flashlight to find the “call” button, usually marked with the image of a phone. Pressing it will contact a technician to come and help you. It will also alert the maintenance staff that there is a problem with the elevator. If you successfully connect with a maintenance technician, they will be on their way.
