Today, I want to talk about something pretty niche but super interesting if you’re into it – the “Elevator World” magazine. It’s all about elevators, escalators, and everything related to vertical transportation.
So, I started by searching for this magazine online. I typed “Elevator World magazine” into the search bar. I found their official website, but also a bunch of listings on online shopping platforms and some digital magazine platforms.

I decided to explore the official website first. There was a section for different products, and one of them was labeled “Defensive Elevatoring”. Sounded a bit intense, haha. I figured I should get a feel for what the magazine was all about, so I checked out their subscription options.
They have a digital subscription that gives you access to tons of articles and news. I learned that this company, Elevator World, also has other things like a big directory called “EW SOURCE” for the elevator industry and even “EW India”. Seems like they’re pretty big in this field.
After that, I wanted to see if I could easily get a digital issue, so I went to one of the digital magazine sites they mentioned. It was straightforward to find the magazine there. You could read it on an iPad, iPhone, or whatever. Easy peasy.
While digging around, I also stumbled upon some fun facts about elevators. Did you know that the first elevator was supposedly invented by Archimedes way back in 236 B.C.? His version used ropes and a capstan, and it was all manual labor. Pretty wild, right?
- I realized that elevators are not just about going up and down.
- They’re essential for moving lots of people and heavy stuff quickly and conveniently.
In the end, I didn’t actually buy a subscription or a single issue, but I learned a lot just from browsing around. I mean, who knew there was so much to learn about elevators? It’s a whole world out there, and this magazine is like the key to it. If you’re ever curious about how these things work or the industry behind them, “Elevator World” magazine seems like the place to go. Just be prepared to dive deep into the world of vertical transportation!
