No Lift Shaft Required.
Avoid expensive building works with our innovative home lifts, which don’t require a lift shaft.
In the quest for ultimate convenience and accessibility within the confines of one’s home, the emergence of Compact Home Lifts has revolutionised the concept of vertical mobility. What sets these innovative lifts apart is their ability to seamlessly integrate into living spaces without the need for a traditional lift shaft.
This paradigm shift not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of homes but also unlocks a myriad of benefits.
Top 5 benefits of a compact lift without a lift shaft:
Maximise Floor Space with Flexible Placement
The first and most striking advantage is their space-saving design. Unlike conventional elevators that necessitate dedicated shaft space, these lifts can be installed in various areas of a home, such as staircases, closets, or even open spaces. This versatility translates to efficient utilisation of available square footage, a valuable asset in modern urban living where space is often at a premium.
Architectural Freedom Without Compromise
Another standout benefit of these lifts is the freedom they bestow upon homeowners to craft their living environments without architectural constraints. Traditional lifts demand meticulous planning during construction or renovation, often imposing limitations on interior design and layout. In contrast, these lifts blend seamlessly into the existing structure, preserving the architectural integrity while offering an element of modernity.
Quick, Low-Cost, Low-Disruption Installation
Moreover, the absence of a lift shaft significantly reduces installation complexity and costs. The process of retrofitting a conventional elevator can be daunting, involving extensive construction work, structural modifications, and related expenses. In contrast, installing a lift from Compact Home Lifts is relatively swift and hassle-free, requiring minimal disruption to daily life. This is particularly advantageous for those seeking accessibility solutions for elderly family members or individuals with mobility challenges.
Inclusive Access and Everyday Independence
Compact home lifts also contribute to an inclusive living environment. Their ease of use and thoughtful design make them accessible to everyone, regardless of age or mobility limitations. This translates to enhanced independence for elderly residents and those with mobility issues, fostering a sense of self-sufficiency.
Elevate Home Life: Convenience, Style & Inclusion
The advent of lifts that don’t require a lift shaft heralds a new era of convenience, aesthetics, and inclusivity in residential living. These lifts seamlessly merge with the existing architecture, liberating homeowners from the constraints of traditional lift installations. The advantages are multifaceted: space optimisation, cost-effective installation, architectural freedom, and above all, enhanced accessibility. By embracing this innovative technology, homeowners can truly elevate their quality of life without compromising on the aesthetic and functional aspects of their living spaces.

Frequently asked questions
What 24/7 Emergency Service is available?
In the event of an emergency while operating your lift, a standard emergency phone is concealed in the lift and allows you to dial our 24-hour Emergency Service. The phone is connected to mains power to ensure its battery is always charged.
With thousands of lifts in service nationally for many years, be assured that 99.9% of callers have had their queries sorted out over the phone, and at no cost. Often it is something as simple as a handbag or pet moving into the path of a safety sensor. If a technician is required to visit the home, standard charges apply.
Importantly, the phone can also be used to dial 000 or any number.
How long does it take to install a Compact Lift?
Our home lifts are fitted by a professional network of authorised dealers and contractors. Once the basic building works are completed, we can often have your Compact Home Lift installed and operational in under 2 working days.
How much power does Compact Lifts require?
Compact Home Lifts can plug straight into a standard power point, just like a TV. When in use, our lifts typically draw six amps (6A) when going up, which is approximately half of what it can take to boil a kettle. Going down uses gravity and braking, so very little power is used. Standard domestic power sockets have 10A capacity.
Where can I place my lift?
Our compact home lifts allow for unrivaled flexibility in terms of placement. Due to the size of our lifts and unique dual rail support system, our lifts can be placed throughout the home. We can even install our lifts in some closet spaces.
Do you require Compact Lifts load bearing walls?
No, our unique dual rail system creates a completely self-supporting structure. The weight of the entire structure and lift are in compression through the rails into the floor of the home. The Compact Home Lift does not add any extra burden on a home thanks to this clever system.
Will I need buidling works?
Unlike conventional lifts, our range only requires the appropriate ceiling aperture to be cut out and trimmed by a professional builder. This is minimal work and will most likely only take a builder a single day to to complete. We also have our own in house building service and can recommend registered builders for your specific project.
How safe are your Compact Lifts?
Our lifts are some of that safest of their kind on the market and boast the following safety features:
Top and bottom safety pans
When the lift is moving, two safety pans are in place to ensure nothing is obstructing the lift. This means that if an object (e.g. a child or pet) was to potentially obstruct the lift as it travels, the lift would simply stop before making contact and only be able to move in the opposite direction.
Full height light curtain (half door option lift)
The full height light curtain is located at the entrance to the lift. This acts as a sensor and ensures nothing crosses into or out of the lift as it travels. This prevents any dangers to passengers and also people outside the lift. In the event the light curtain is crossed, the lift will stop and will not move until the obstruction ceases.
Hold-to-run press button controls
Our lifts are fitted with hold to run press button controls, ensuring that the occupants are in total control of the lift at all times. This also creates a point of contact between the passenger and the lift whilst it is in motion.
Swing Door
Our lifts are fitted with a hinged door (this comes in both half-height and full-height varieties) that provides a physical barrier whilst the lift is in use. The door locks will only release when the lift arrives safely at the floor of choice.
Weight limit sensors
If the weight limits of our lifts are ever exceeded, the weight limit sensors will not allow the lift to travel.
Out of balance sensors
If the lift for whatever reason is ever out of balance, a number of sensors will detect this and prevent the lift from travelling.
Fall arrest mechanism
Due to our unique drive system, all the weight in the lift is carried on two steel cables. In the unlikely event that these cables were to break or go slack, the patented fall arrest mechanism inside the lift will activate and not allow the lift to move. This ensures the absolute safety of all occupants.
Over Speed Governor (OSG)
Over speed governor triggers if lift travels quicker than 0.15m/s, ensuring a safe speed is maintained.
Battery Backup
Our lifts have a emergency battery backup in the event of a power failure.
Travel Sensors
Travel sensors on the highest and lowest levels are in place to guarantee the lift stops where it should.
Phone Access
A cleverly concealed mobile phone comes standard with each lift, as required per the Australian Lift Code.
What happens if the power goes out?
In the event of a power outage, our lifts are equipped with a battery backup facility. This comes standard and will allow the lift to safely descend to the lowest level of the home and allow the passenger(s) to exit.
How much noise does a Compact Lift make?
Unlike most other residential lifts on the market, our product don’t use noisy hydraulics, vacuum systems or loud mechanical equipment. Our lifts use a unique electric motor drive system which is very quiet. You can see how quiet our lifts are at one of our showrooms in Melbourne or Sydney.
