If you've never considered installing an elevator in your home before, there may be a lot to learn before making a purchase. Here is essential information about home elevators that you should familiarize yourself with. This knowledge will not only enhance the enjoyment and resale value of your home but also empower you to engage confidently with elevator companies.
Question 1: What is a machine room elevator?
Machine room elevators are elevators that require a separate machine room to house the elevator traction machine or hydraulic system. Machine room elevators are typically used in commercial and high-rise buildings, where the elevator system is installed inside the machine room.
Question 2: For home & residential elevators, should you choose a machine room elevator or a machine room-less elevator?
For space-constrained villas or low-rise commercial residences, a machine room-less home elevator is undoubtedly a better choice. They allow for flexible installation, thereby improving space utilization and saving on power consumption and elevator maintenance costs.
Question 3: How much does a home elevator cost?
This depends on the customization required, and of course, our installation costs are included in the elevator price. However, the following choices are related to the price:
- Cabin size
- Cabin finishes – walls, doors, elevator control panels
- Elevator type (hydraulic or machine room-less)
- Carrying capacity
- Glass or mirrored panels
- Remote monitoring
