Faraday Elevator Proudly Serves The Tri-State Area
Faraday was built to bring pride and accountability back to an industry that’s lost both. For too long, corporate elevator companies have cut corners, overpromised, and underdelivered. Our mission is simple: Deliver craftsmanship, honesty, and reliability that speaks louder than words.”
— Christopher Todd, CEO

Who We Are
Faraday Elevator is a new, full-service elevator company built on the legacy of Michael Todd, a pioneer who helped shape New York’s elevator industry through multiple successful companies before his passing from AFTD. Now led by his son Christopher Todd, Faraday carries that family expertise forward while combining decades of craftsmanship with modern transparency, data, and trust.
What We Do
At Faraday Elevator, we service, repair, modernize, and maintain elevators. Our real mission is restoring trust to an industry that’s lost it. We believe property managers deserve clarity, not confusion; reliability, not runarounds. Every service we provide from preventive maintenance to modernization is driven by one goal: to make elevator ownership transparent, predictable, and fair again.
Who We Serve
We partner with property managers, building owners, and facility teams who rely on a solid, trustworthy company to keep their elevators safe and running. From residential high-rises to commercial buildings across the Tri-State area, we serve the people responsible for keeping tenants, guests, and employees moving every day.
About Us
Faraday Elevator was built on legacy, one that began with Michael Francis Todd, a U.S. Navy veteran who helped install the original elevators at the World Trade Center and went on to found one of New York’s most respected elevator companies. Guided by integrity, craftsmanship, and care for his people, Michael became a legend in the trade until passing in 2025.
His son, Christopher Todd, grew up immersed in that world. After studying electrical engineering and earning his MBA, Chris spent over 30 years in the elevator industry — modernizing elevators in more than ten countries, including top-secret Department of Defense sites across Europe and Asia. He later led operations in New York City, served as president of his family’s company, and oversaw super high-rise projects including the new World Trade Center for one of the major multinational elevator companies. Chris also created and built one of the only employee owned elevator companies in the USA. While in college Chris was inspired by the scientist Michael Faraday, whose discoveries in electromagnetism redefined innovation, Chris founded Faraday Elevator as a bridge between tradition and technology.
The company stands as both a tribute to his father’s legacy and a commitment to the next generation of excellence — where integrity, innovation, and precision elevate everything we do.
