The cab or counterweight pit buffer for an elevator system includes a cross beam disposed in the pit below the ground floor landing for the elevator. The cross beam is mounted on the cab or counterweight guide rails by means of safety brakes which will allow limited and controlled downward movement of the cross beam when a downwardly directed force is exerted on it. The cross beam carries at least one plunger-type spring or oil buffer on its upper surface for initial engagement with the cab or counterweight in the event the latter must be stopped by the pit buffer. The majority of the braking force for the descending cab or counterweight is provided by the safety brakes on the buffer cross beam. The buffer assembly is particularly adapted for high speed elevator systems.
