A lift inside the staircase
Elevante is not a lift placed beside your stairs. The cabin travels vertically inside the staircase footprint, behind the flight, between the ground floor and the first floor.
People fit in the cabin, so someone can travel with you when that helps.
Launch markets. The Netherlands first, then the United Kingdom and Germany.
Steps from first enquiry to handover, set out in full on the installation page.
Extra floor space. The cabin uses the void the staircase already has.
Safety is part of the mechanism, not an accessory
The system detects movement on and around the staircase. If movement is detected the lift will not start, and if movement begins while the cabin is travelling it stops.
The doors follow the same logic. The opening at the upper floor is closed whenever the cabin is not there, and the lower opening closes as the cabin rises.
The cabin arrives level with the floor. No step up, no threshold to cross.
The rollator goes in with you. It does not have to be folded or left behind.
The cabin takes a wheelchair, and you do not need to turn it around inside.
There is room for a second person, so a partner, family member or carer travels with you.
