In 1989, Reynolds & Reynolds Electronics, Inc. (R&R) was founded based on a need to assist people who were getting trapped in elevators when regular building power was lost (known as elevator entrapment). To rescue passengers, R&R began by patenting a battery backup unit for hydraulic elevators. Over the years, R&R has since expanded its product offerings and become a leading supplier in the elevator industry, widely recognized by its trademark POWERVATOR®. R&R’s product line consists of Emergency Return Systems/Battery Backup for traction and hydraulic passenger and freight elevators (single and three-phrase models), Emergency Brake Release (EBR) units, and Elevator Door Controllers. These products are sold through independent elevator contractors and major elevator manufacturers (OEMs). R&R’s units can be installed in new and existing elevator applications. Today, R&R’s commitment to manufacturing high-quality products all made in the USA and providing complimentary product technical support continue to be second to none. Based in the beautiful Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania, our state-of-the-art facility boasts a dedicated team of employees who seek out continuous process improvements to reduce lead times and pair seamlessly with customers’ needs.
