New Year Resolution – Install A Residential Elevator

With 2023 upon us, homeowners across the country have sought to remodel their residences to ensure they can navigate their property long-term with ease. For those wishing to Age-In-Place, installing a home elevator has become a necessary addition to ensure additional accessibilities to their upper floors. Many properties were not originally designed with a residential elevator in mind, making it difficult to find an appropriate location to retrofit a home elevator in an existing home.

When trying to decide which home elevator is right for your accessibility needs, homeowners must review the benefits and features available with each home lift system. With a number of different mobility options and lifts available, it is important to educate oneself on the systems available to weigh which option is right for their project and needs.

So, which is the most appealing home elevator for a retro-fit or new construction projects? When analyzing traditional elevators, such as hydraulic, traction or winding drum systems, pre-construction shafts, pits or machine rooms are often required for operation. This will increase construction costs and installation time required to retrofit these types of home lifts in an existing home, while also having a lasting affect to the structural integrity of the property. In addition, a traditional elevator will occupy more space inside your home due to these additional construction requirements. Annual maintenance is often required with traditional elevators as harmful oils, gases and lubricants will need to be replaced and monitored regularly, meaning annual service calls will be required for traditional elevators adding additional costs. Lastly, most traditional home elevators are often installed in stacked closets and hidden out of sight so there is no design or aesthetic addition when installing these traditional lifts that will enhance the appeal of their home.

If you are seeking an easy-to-install, innovative home lift, Vacuum Elevators are the mobility solution you have been seeking.
