Elevator sales man said we do not need a elevator recall because the elevator opens to the same lobby. But I cannot find an exception for not having the recall anywhere. Any help would be appreciated.

2 story office building, type b construction, sprinkle, no fire alarm, elevator stops at 2 floors, travels less than less than 25 ft, elevator is NOT a means of egress, doors open to the same "air" (main lobby is 2 stories high)

I am looking for an exception in ANSI 17.1, NFPA 72, NFPA 1, NFPA 101

Not a formal interpretation.

In Canada or at least Alberta. We aren't required to have recall if both of two thing apply

1) there are only two landings
2) the hoistway/car doesn't travel more than 7m

Salesmen are usually only marginally aware of any codes. Call a certified inspector to get your answer correctly. None of us charges for a simple question.
