Home / Elevators

Three systems, compared side by side.

Travel height, available space and how often the lift runs decide which drive suits your building. Everything below is the specification we build to.

02 Choosing

Not sure which one?
Answer these three questions.

Up to G+3 in a house, the hydraulic home lift is usually the simplest and cheapest to install. Beyond that, traction or MRL.

If you cannot give up a machine room or dig a pit, the MRL lift solves both — everything lives inside the shaft.

Heavy daily use across many floors favours gearless traction, which is more efficient per trip and cooler under load.

Send us the floor count and the space you have. We'll visit, measure and quote with the specification written out — no surprises later.
