Everybody is familiar with the commercial lifts we find in public shopping centres, carparks, and business buildings. A home lift fulfils the same purpose — transporting a person or people from one floor of a building to another — but it is designed specifically for a private residence, so it is smaller, quieter and can be adapted almost anywhere in the home. Might not cost as much as you think either. Whatever the size of your home or your reasons for investing in a home lift, we have the perfect design for you. With a wide range of sizes and styles available, we can help provide the best home lift that meets your needs . If you are reading this article, you will have your own reasons for considering installing a domestic lift. Doing so can deliver many benefits like below: Add aesthetically pleasing mobility solution for the home, that does not block your staircase for other users — home lifts are compact with a sleek design that will complement your home and provide a very practical solution. They can come with seats, in car phones and can even be voice controlled. "Beam me up" Future proof your property — you can continue to enjoy your home if your needs change or you become less mobile or need help moving items around the home and some home lifts can carry up to 3 people, wheelchair users and carers. Avoid expensive home adaptations — if you or a member of the household can no longer access the stairs or outside steps with ease, a lift provides a simple solution. The home lifts can travel between 3 floors, perfect for those loft rooms. Add value to your property — our home lifts add a high-end, must-have feature that will appeal to a wide range of buyers, from older couples to busy families. Transport cumbersome or heavy items — depending on the design you choose, your lift can provide a handy way of transporting bags, laundry or the vacuum cleaner, and yes even the dog! Grants Available for your home lift? If you have a disability that requires you to make changes to your home because of a chronic illness, it’s possible to get a grant from your local council to cover some or all of the work needed.
