F2A Feller Ascenseurs & Automatismes

What F2A Feller Ascenseurs & Automatismes does

F2A Feller Ascenseurs & Automatismes is a family-owned French SARL founded in 1995 by David Feller and headquartered in Mulhouse, Alsace. The company installs and maintains elevators (standard, hydraulic, electric, machine-room-less, and private residential), goods lifts (monte-charges), accessibility equipment for persons with reduced mobility (PMR stairlifts and platform lifts), automatic pedestrian and industrial doors, automatic gates and barriers, sectional doors, and access-control systems including badge readers, biometric modules, remote controls, and 3G video intercoms. Its service coverage spans the French Grand Est region — specifically Mulhouse, Territoire de Belfort, Haute-Saône, Doubs, and Bas-Rhin — supported by a headquarters in Mulhouse and a technical agency in Mundolsheim opened to extend northern reach.

The business operates a hybrid go-to-market combining one-time installation projects with recurring maintenance contracts and spare-parts supply. Pricing is quote-based (devis gratuit), not publicly disclosed. Customers split across B2C individuels (private home lifts, accessibility), B2B professionnels (retail, hospitality, industrial, logistics — e.g., La Poste Molsheim, Kiko Milano Mulhouse, Zolpan Sausheim, Hôtel de l'Ange Guebwiller, Pharmacie de la Fontaine Seloncourt), and public-sector accounts (Cité Administrative de Colmar). The company markets primarily through its website, an educational blog, a customer-review section, and a project gallery; lead generation relies on direct-contact quote requests and a 24/7 emergency-repair hotline with a sub-4-hour response SLA.

With a stated team of 7 employees and share capital of €7,622 (a minimum SARL formation threshold), F2A is a micro-scale regional operator. It emphasizes reliability (under-4-hour response, guaranteed spare-part availability for decades), longevity (preventive maintenance and continuous technical training), and local identity (Marque Alsace partner). No funding rounds, acquisitions, M&A activity, or institutional ownership have been disclosed; the business has remained an independent family enterprise across its 25+ year operating history.
