Is the SWIFT Domestic Lift Safe?
SWIFT has a unique screw and nut drive system (patent pending) that is extremely reliable and safe. It is certified by the accredited notified body DNV (Det Norske Veritas) and complies with Europe’s strictest lift regulations – the European Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and the European Standard EN81-41.
All our home lifts have built-in SWIFT Safety features such as intelligent doors, safety sensors and dual safety brakes for complete peace of mind. All home lifts are also remotely accessible by our SWIFT service team ready to provide quick support if need be.
Thanks to the Tesla-inspired battery solution, you don’t need to worry about getting trapped inside the home lift in case there is a mains power failure. SWIFT’s unique “anti-trap” system will ensure that the lift continues to operate with normal speed and functionality.
Are All Domestic Lifts Safe?

However, not all domestic lifts are created equal, and their safety can depend on several important factors, including build quality, compliance with safety standards, installation, and regular servicing.How to Ensure Your Lift is Safe:
- Choose Certified Brands: Always select lifts that comply with national and international safety standards like EN 81-41 or equivalent.
- Use Authorized Installers: Professional installation ensures that all safety protocols are followed.
- Schedule Regular Maintenance: Routine servicing is essential to keep safety systems like brakes, doors, and emergency features working properly.
- Educate Users: Especially in households with children or the elderly, it's important to provide basic usage and emergency instruction.
Conclusion:
While domestic lifts are generally safe, their safety largely depends on the quality of the product, proper installation, and regular maintenance. By making informed choices and prioritizing safety features, homeowners can enjoy the convenience of a lift without compromising on safety.
