Home Elevator Sizes – How Many People Can Fit?
One size does not fit all. If you want to install a home lift in your house, you should carefully check the space available, consider your specific needs (suitcases, prams, wheelchairs, etc.), and match these requirements with the most suitable lift size from the SWIFT range.
SWIFT platform lifts are available in six different configurations to match a variety of home lift size needs. Each option includes three key specifications: the floor size (the area you stand on), the outer dimension (the lift car plus the surrounding shaft), and the “hole-through-the-floor” size (the required opening between two floors).
Both SWIFT Pro and SWIFT Lite can be installed directly on the floor or recessed in a 50 mm pit, providing flexibility for different housing structures. The top floor height requirement is only 2275 mm. The diagrams below also show how much space is needed for the doors to open. If you or your architect need more technical details, we’re happy to provide BIM files.
