Frequently Asked Questions

Yes.

Many existing homes can be retrofitted with a residential lift. Every home is different, so we’ll assess your property’s layout, structure and available space to determine the most suitable location for a lift shaft.

Typically 2 sq. metres floor space.

The space required depends on the lift model you choose. Modern residential lifts are designed to fit into surprisingly compact areas, with many requiring less than one square metre of floor space. We work closely with your chosen lift supplier to ensure the shaft is constructed to the correct dimensions and structural requirements.

Typically $100,000 to $200,000

The cost depends on number of levels in the building, construction method and accessibility, and whether the project is part of a new build or a renovation. Following an on-site consultation, we provide a detailed fixed-price quotation so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.

It can be as fast as 8 weeks.

Construction time depends on the complexity of the project. Lift shafts incorporated into new homes are generally completed as part of the normal building program, while retrofit installations may take anywhere from 2 to 4 months. During your consultation, we’ll provide a clear project timeline and keep you informed throughout every stage of the build.
