Are you getting a home elevator installed inside of your house? If so, it can be a great investment for you and your home. Before you perform the installation, however, it’s important to ask yourself: what type of elevator do you get? After all, there are plenty of different types of elevators from which to choose, and you want to decide on the best one for your situation. Today, let’s look at different types of home elevators you could get.
Traditional Home Elevators
Sometimes, you just can’t go wrong with the classics. A traditional home elevator is installed inside of a shaft, and it gets hidden behind swing doors.
Among the types of elevators you could install, it’s the traditional variants that offer the widest range of creativity with design. There are also many different upgrades you could get, including automatic sliding doors, which make your elevator easier to use.
Shaftless Home Elevators
These elevators don’t require as much construction as traditional variants. This is in part because they don’t come with a shaft or a pit. A nifty perk with shaftless elevators is that they can be equipped with battery backups, allowing you to safely operate them even when there are power outages.
Pitless Home Elevators
A pitless home elevator can be a fairly versatile option. This is because you don’t have to dig a pit inside of your home’s foundation in order to build it. There are three main varieties of pitless elevators. You can get them in shaftess, vacuum, or traditional styles, and they all come with a wide array of customizing options so you can fit your elevator’s design to meet the unique needs of your home.
