Introduction
However, home lifts are not just used by people with physical limitations. The
vast majority of users opt for a residential lift to simplify their movement
within their homes. Access inside houses with several floors, whether they are
refurbished properties or new constructions, is made easier with a lift.
Lift Specifications
Different homes will require different lifts. The size of the cabin will depend on
the number of people that will be using the lift, as well as their needs, and the
pit size will depend on the features of the house. Some lifts can
be installed without excavation, while others require a deep pit to be created.
Design
There are many different types of lifts, and there is also the possibility of going
bespoke – meaning that the home lift will be unique to a particular user and
cannot be found anywhere else.
