Lift Industry Newsletter
July 2025
As usual, the last Friday in July was National Talk in an Elevator Day. Horsler marked the event by sharing some fun facts to encourage everyone to get talking!
Did you know?
🗣️ 80% of people avoid small talk in elevators but just a simple “Have a good weekend!” can brighten someone’s day.
⏳ The average elevator ride lasts only 20–30 seconds, but that’s plenty of time for a friendly exchange.
😅 “Elevator silence” is so common, it’s been studied by psychologists as a modern social habit!
A&A interviewed members of their team to find out: Who would they like to get stuck with in a lift? Their answers were as fun and diverse as the team itself - from favourite actors, to rappers and singers. It turns out, when the team comes together it brings a simple spark with few laughs.
