About Us

Vantage Elevator Solutions (“Vantage”) is North America’s leading independent manufacturer of elevator components and systems. Vantage manufactures nearly every electromechanical component found on elevator systems, including door operators, geared and gearless traction machines, universally compatible microprocessor controllers, safety components, signal fixtures, and structural assemblies.


The Company sells its market-leading products across the entire value chain, including to independent elevator contractors (which count on the company for its competitive product offering, ease of installation, strategic pricing, and customer service) and to elevator Original Equipment Manufacturers (which utilize GAL’s products for jobs requiring customization or short lead times). Vantage works closely with elevator engineers, architects, and consultants, who often specify Vantage components.

The company was founded in 1927 by Herbert Glaser in the basement of a small building at 178th Street and Amsterdam Avenue in New York City, manufacturing its own line of gate switches, interlocks, and door operators. The Company grew from being a key local supplier of lift products into the leading industry provider of elevator components and systems. Vantage was acquired in June 2017 from the Glasser family by the private equity firm Golden Gate Capital with the objective of accelerating the growth of the company through implementation of managerial and operational excellence and through complementary, targeted acquisitions. The Company was sold in November of 2021 to Ontario Teacher’s Pension Plan.
