Here's how I think you should approach this, as I have recently done this for a friend of mine who put a similiar 0.3c office building which had support for elevator's so I added them up.
So firstly, you map your building or whatever in MTA, then you put the elevator object itself (only from sa-mp 0.3 and later-you'll need to mod your MTA (if you haven't), search the forums!)
When you're all finished with the elevator add the doors, there is one door for the left and one for the right.
Then preferably how I have done this is I put another elevator and doors on the next floor, then saved it all up,
converted MTA code to PAWN code and got the objects positions.
The most basic thing here to realise is that you need offsets, offset for each elevator Z coord, which is it's height.
You can think of it as the elevator object Z coord for each floor, or the Z coord for each floor itself.
Then you just get them offsets from the elevator and the door's and start making it up.
Note that all of this is if you're trying to do it for another building which isn't the LS Office Building. If it is - do as suggested, use MoveObject.
Edit: I know somebody already released a handy tool for moving all objects to a new position at once, now I have found it again, so I think THIS might come in handy to you, made by Gamer931215.
