Elevator phones failing DOB inspection. Tenants complaining about dead copper lines. Cabling from the 80s that can't support modern systems. A different vendor for every floor and every problem. Callifi handles it all — elevator phones, tenant phone systems, building cabling, internet coordination, and emergency communication — from one team in Midtown Manhattan.
Most building owners juggle 4-5 vendors for phones, cabling, internet, elevator phones, and tenant systems. Every time something breaks, you're making calls to figure out whose problem it is. Callifi replaces all of them with one team, one number, one relationship.
Code-compliant two-way emergency phones in every cab. Cellular and VoIP options that don't depend on copper. ADA compliant with hands-free operation and visual indicators. Pass your DOB inspection — guaranteed.
Elevator phone details →Hosted VoIP for commercial tenants — from a 3-person startup to a 50-phone law firm. We install, configure, and support the phone system for any tenant in your building. Tenants get a modern system; you get a happy tenant and a building amenity to market.
Phone system details →Riser cable between floors. Cat6 to every suite. Patch panels, MDF/IDF buildouts, and cable plant documentation. New construction, renovations, or cleanup of decades-old spaghetti wiring that nobody can trace.
Cabling details →We work with Verizon Fios, Spectrum, Pilot Fiber, and other ISPs to get circuits into your building and up to each floor. We coordinate riser access, MDF entry, and buildout schedules with your building management team.
Internet details →Lobby directory phones, parking garage emergency phones, stairwell phones, and pool area phones. Code compliant, properly connected, tested and documented. Connected to monitoring or your building's front desk.
Building-wide paging, floor-level intercoms, and emergency announcement systems. Integrated with your phone system or standalone. For commercial buildings, residential complexes, and mixed-use developments.
If you manage a building built before 2010, your elevator phones, fire alarm communicators, and tenant phone lines probably run on copper POTS lines from Verizon. Those lines are disappearing:
Verizon and AT&T are actively decommissioning copper infrastructure across NYC. They're not sending repair techs. They're not provisioning new lines. When your copper fails, it's gone.
Your elevator phone line goes dead and nobody notices until the DOB inspector picks up the handset. By then you have a violation, a fine, and a scramble to fix it before the elevator gets taken out of service.
A new tenant moves in and orders phone service. The carrier says they can't provision POTS at the building. The tenant asks you why. You don't have an answer. They're frustrated before they've even unpacked.
Callifi solves all of this. We replace copper-dependent elevator phones with cellular units. We install SIP trunks on legacy PBX systems so tenants don't need copper. We run Cat6 cabling so the building is ready for VoIP tenants. One building-wide upgrade that eliminates copper dependency.

When the elevator phone doesn't work, is it the phone vendor, the line provider, or the monitoring company? When Callifi handles all three, there's one call to make and one team that owns the problem.
Your super, your property manager, and your board all call the same number. We know your building by address. We have your telecom closet documented. We don't need a 30-minute briefing before we can help.
New tenant moving in? We handle their phone system, their cabling, and their internet coordination. You hand them our number on day one and the entire communication setup is handled.
