Why these questions? Home lift selection depends on building height, expected users, capacity, available shaft space, door configuration, aesthetics and budget. The recommendation is intended as a starting point for planning—not a final technical specification.

How to choose a home lift for your house

Choosing a home lift starts with the building rather than the cabin design. The number of floors, floor-to-floor height, available shaft space, pit and headroom can determine which lift configurations are practical.

You should also consider how many people will regularly use the lift, whether elderly family members or wheelchair users need access, the preferred door configuration, interior finish and your overall budget.

Which home lift is suitable for G+1, G+2 or G+3?

For smaller independent houses, a compact home lift may be sufficient. G+2 and G+3 homes may require greater attention to capacity, travel, number of stops and daily usage. The right configuration depends on the actual building and family requirements.

G+1 home

Suitable for homeowners looking for convenient movement between two levels, subject to shaft and installation feasibility.

G+2 home

A common requirement for villas and independent houses, where capacity and daily family usage become important.

G+3 and above

Higher homes should be evaluated for travel, capacity, traffic, shaft dimensions and appropriate lift system.

Home lift for an existing house

Installing a lift in an existing house requires a site assessment before selecting the model. Available space, structural conditions, floor heights, pit possibilities, headroom and access to electrical supply all need to be checked.

Where space is limited, the lift solution may need to be customised around the existing building rather than selecting a standard configuration.

Home Lift Selector – Frequently Asked Questions

Which home lift is best for a G+2 house?

The appropriate home lift depends on capacity, number of users, shaft space, door configuration, budget and intended frequency of use. A site assessment is recommended before final selection.

What size home lift do I need?

The required lift size depends on the number of users and whether wheelchair, stretcher or other accessibility requirements need to be accommodated. Shaft dimensions and local site conditions also affect the final cabin size.

Can a home lift be installed in an existing house?

Yes, depending on the building and available space. Existing houses should be assessed for shaft location, pit, headroom, floor heights, structural conditions and electrical requirements.

How much does a home lift cost?

Home lift pricing varies according to floors, capacity, doors, lift system, cabin finish, shaft requirements and installation conditions. Use the selector above for an indicative range.

Do home lifts need a pit?

Pit requirements depend on the selected lift technology and specific design. Some installations can use reduced-pit or special configurations, but the actual requirement should be confirmed during technical evaluation.

Can a home lift be used by wheelchair users?

A suitable lift can be designed for accessibility, but cabin dimensions, door width, entrance arrangement and building conditions should be considered before selection.

Which is better for a villa: standard or luxury home lift?

The appropriate specification depends on the homeowner's requirements. Standard configurations focus on practical residential transportation, while premium configurations can provide enhanced cabin finishes, doors and design features.

Can Volo recommend a home lift after a site inspection?

Yes. A site assessment allows the lift configuration to be matched to the actual shaft, floor heights, pit, headroom, electrical requirements and intended usage.
