Amtech Reliable Elevator Co. was an elevator company based in California. They were owned by ABH Industries Incorporated. They were founded in 1985, when Amtech bought Reliable Elevator Co. In 1995, they changed their name to Amtech Elevator Services. Most elevator enthusiasts think they are a U.S. elevator distributor. But that is false. The reason the fixtures look similar is that the company was founded by former U.S. elevator employees.
