We want to reinforce that all of our locations will remain OPEN, as we are considered an essential business. You can view our locations here.
We will continue to keep you informed of the actions we are taking in accordance with national, state, and local governments. We are here for you, to keep your business up and running.
If you, or someone from your company, is planning to visit in person, we have outlined below the precautions we will be taking to keep everyone safe and healthy.
Once you arrive at one of our locations, we ask you to follow this process. (Employees are also being screened in a similar manner)
Where To Check-in:
- If entering a building, there will be signs posted directing you where to go to check-in
- If entering in a vehicle through one of our gates, the gates will be manned by employees who will perform your check-in at the gate
Check-in Process:
- Building doors will be locked, there will be a Gregory Poole associate available to let you in and conduct the check-in procedure
- Your temperature will be taken in the lobby with a non-invasive, infra-red thermometer – temperature must be below 100.4
- We may ask you questions about fever, travel to hot spot areas, or exposure to anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19
- One of our employees will escort (indoors) or direct you (outdoors) to the proper destination
During these difficult times, we hope you and your families stay safe and healthy. Thank you for your continued loyalty to Gregory Poole Lift Systems and please be assured we’ll do everything we can to protect and support the well-being of everyone in our extended community.
Thank you,

Gregory Poole Lift Systems’s number one priority is ensuring the safety of our customers and employees. Per the Gregory Poole Mission Statement, “we are stewards of our communities, our environment and the industries we serve” and “we are dedicated to our customer’s success.” We would like to keep you, our valued customers, informed of our company response during this time.
For the time being, all Gregory Poole locations are operating at normal business hours and are taking precautions onsite to help control the spread of COVID-19 (commonly known as the coronavirus).
As the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak is a major concern for everyone, we want to share how we are managing the situation. We have not had any type of exposure, but our first priority remains the health and well-being of our associates, customers and community.
We recognize this is a fluid and dynamic situation – be sure to keep an eye out on updates from our website homepage, further email communications, and social media accounts as things continue to change throughout our National, State and City governments and local communities to prevent the spread of this virus.
We are committed to serving your needs during this unprecedented time. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to your nearest location or your sales representative.
Thank you for your understanding. In the meantime, please be safe and know our hearts go out to all those affected.
