A residential passenger lift is a type of vertical transportation system designed for private homes, allowing individuals to move safely and conveniently between different floors. Unlike commercial elevators, residential lifts are typically smaller, quieter, and more compact, tailored to fit within the limited space of a home. They are especially beneficial for elderly individuals, people with mobility issues, or families wanting to future-proof their homes.
Residential passenger lifts come in various designs and technologies, including hydraulic, traction, and pneumatic systems. They can be installed inside a shaft or as free-standing units, depending on the home's structure and space. Most models operate at lower speeds and carry lighter loads than commercial lifts, usually accommodating 1 to 3 passengers at a time.
