Home lifts make multi-generational living easier, safer and more connected

Australians are increasingly sharing homes across generations. With one in five households now including grandparents, parents and children under one roof, the need for flexible, accessible living spaces has never been more pressing.

Home lifts from Compact Home Lifts meet that need head-on. They deliver practical solutions that improve accessibility, reduce risk and support dignity for every age group.

Accessible movement for every family member

A Compact Home Lift is not just for the elderly. It helps everyone in the household move freely between floors, without the effort, danger or inconvenience of stairs.

Key benefits include:

  • Safer access for older adults and those with mobility challenges
  • Easier movement of items like groceries, laundry and prams
  • Comfortable, quick vertical travel for children and carers
  • No physical strain or risk from climbing stairs multiple times a day
  • Better use of the entire home for all generations

With compact footprints and discreet design, lifts can be installed in hallways, cupboards or even under stairwells without disrupting layout or liveability.

Designed with safety at its core

In multi-generational homes, safety is not optional. Whether it is elderly family members navigating stairs or toddlers running around, the risk of slips, falls or fatigue is real.

Compact Home Lifts solve this with built-in safety systems designed for everyday use.

All models include:

  • Emergency stop buttons
  • Safety sensors and fall arrest mechanisms
  • Non-slip flooring
  • Enclosed cabins to prevent trips or missteps
  • Electric monitored locks

Every model complies with Australian and European residential lift standards.

Supporting dignity and independence for older family members

A home lift allows older Australians to remain part of family life without compromise. They can access every level of their home with ease, instead of being limited to ground floors or forced to consider assisted living.

For families, this reduces the physical and emotional strain of caregiving. Carers no longer need to lift, assist or worry each time someone needs to move between levels.

Real families, real improvements

Across Australia, families are already using Compact Home Lifts to transform how they live together.

One customer installed a lift after a family member’s stroke, restoring full access to the home and allowing that person to remain active in family life. Another combined an Elegance Plus lift with other home upgrades to keep ageing parents safe and nearby.

These stories are not rare. They are becoming the norm.

More than mobility. A tool for daily life.

Compact Home Lifts are not just for long-term conditions. They also help with day-to-day life:

  • Transporting baskets of laundry
  • Carrying shopping upstairs
  • Moving suitcases, baby items or seasonal decorations
  • Helping anyone recovering from surgery or injury

This is not just about accessibility. It is about improving function and removing friction from daily life.
