A home lift is a practical solution for enhancing accessibility within your home. It is particularly beneficial for individuals with mobility challenges, offering a safe and convenient way to move between floors. Beyond its functional advantages, a home lift can significantly improve your quality of life, support independent living, and even boost your property’s market value, making it a worthwhile investment for the future. A home lift provides ease of access throughout your property with the option for single press operation. A home lift can even increase the value of your home, as an attractive centre piece or improved accessibility making it appeal to a wider audience.
Home lifts are cleverly designed to fit into compact spaces, making them suitable for a wide range of properties. Our APL1 can be installed in as little as 700mm wide! To determine the exact space requirements for your home, we recommend scheduling a no obligation site assessment with our team of experts.
A home lift moves an enclosed lift car between floors using a powered drive system, providing a smooth, passenger-style experience within a residential setting. Our home lifts can operate using either hydraulic or traction technology, depending on the design and application.
Hydraulic home lifts use a pump and hydraulic fluid to raise and lower the lift, offering smooth, reliable operation and are well suited to low-rise homes. Traction home lifts use an electric motor with ropes or belts and a counterweight, delivering efficient operation, precise levelling, and lower energy consumption.
Both systems incorporate advanced safety features and intuitive controls. The most suitable option depends on the layout of the home, travel height, and usage requirements.
Yes, many home lifts are specifically designed to accommodate wheelchairs, making them an excellent choice for users with mobility aids. These lifts are built with spacious interiors and wide door openings to ensure easy access and comfort. Whether you need to transport a wheelchair or other mobility equipment, a home lift can cater to your needs.
Most home lifts are installed to provide a level or near-level entry, depending on the available pit depth. If your installation site requires it, a shallow ramp can be added to further enhance accessibility. This ensures the lift meets the needs of all users, including those with wheelchairs or reduced mobility.
Our APL1 Elite Cabin Lift can serve up to 6 floors. For homes with more complex requirements, custom solutions may be available to extend the lift’s reach. Our team will assess your property to recommend the best lift for your needs.
Modern home lifts are engineered to operate with minimal noise, and professional installation will reduce operational noise. Hydraulic and traction-based models are particularly quiet, producing only low-level sound during operation. This makes them suitable for homes where noise levels need to be kept discreet and unobtrusive.
While you may not always need an architect or builder for a home lift installation, their involvement can be valuable for more complex projects, such as custom designs or significant structural changes. Our team can collaborate with your chosen professionals or manage the entire process on your behalf, ensuring the lift is installed efficiently.
To keep your home lift in optimal working condition, it’s recommended to have it serviced at least twice a year. We offer a comprehensive 12 month service agreement with every lift and ongoing maintenance packages. This helps ensure safe operation, extends the lift’s lifespan, and prevents unexpected issues. Our team can provide a servicing plan tailored to your lift’s usage and requirements, giving you peace of mind year-round.
