FAMILY ELEVATORS
In modern architecture, family elevators have become an increasingly popular choice for homes with 2 to 5 floors. Designed to carry 1 to 3 people, these elevators are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing, seamlessly blending into the interior design of your home. Whether your home requires a pit or a pitless design, family elevators offer a perfect solution for enhancing convenience and elegance.
Why Choose a Family Elevator?
Family elevators, also known as Homelifts, are compact, space-saving, and designed to integrate beautifully into your home’s interior. Here are some standout advantages:
1. Space-Saving Design
Family elevators are designed to fit into small spaces, requiring only a shaft area of 700x900 mm. This compact design makes them ideal for homes where space is limited, such as townhouses, row houses, or villas.
2. Minimal Impact on Building Structure
Unlike traditional elevators, family elevators require a shallow pit depth of just 150 mm (compared to 1300 mm for conventional elevators) and an overhead clearance (OH) of only 2600-2800 mm (compared to 3800-4200 mm). This minimal structural impact makes them easy to install in both new and existing homes.
3. Diverse Styles to Match Your Interior
Family elevators are not just a mode of transportation they are a statement of luxury and sophistication. Manufacturers offer a wide range of designs to suit various interior styles, ensuring that your elevator complements your home’s aesthetic. From wooden finishes to glass panels, gold or copper accents, and even transparent walls, the options are endless.
4. Quiet and Smooth Operation
Family elevators are designed to operate quietly, ensuring peace and tranquility in your home. They are particularly suitable for households with elderly members or children, providing a safe and comfortable experience.
5. Affordable and Customizable
Family elevators are available at a range of price points, making them accessible to many homeowners. They can be customized with decorative elements to enhance the visual appeal of your home. Whether you need a pit or pitless design, these elevators can be tailored to meet your specific requirements.
Power Requirements for Family Elevators
Most family elevators, especially those designed for townhouses, require a 3-phase power supply. A 3-phase, 4-wire system with a grounded neutral wire is recommended for safety. To obtain a 3-phase power connection, homeowners must meet two conditions:
1. The property must be located in an area with a 3-phase power grid.
2. The homeowner must demonstrate the need for a 3-phase power supply, typically by providing a copy of the elevator purchase contract specifying the requirement.
Where to Install a Family Elevator?
For new constructions or renovations, the ideal location for a family elevator is either within the staircase shaft or adjacent to the staircase for easy access. If these areas are too small, technical experts can recommend alternative locations, such as unused spaces at the back of the house, a corner, or even a small courtyard.
When choosing a location, consider the following factors:
• Convenience for all family members.
• Enhancing the home’s aesthetic appeal.
• Maximizing space efficiency and utilizing existing structures.
• Minimizing changes to the home’s current architecture.
