What Are the Costs to Install an Elevator in the House?

July 3, 2018 by Brandon

The actual cost of installing a residential elevator that you see in the Internet reflects thousands of dollars. For the car unit alone, it can cost from $10,000 to $30,000. We know! That is too much to take in and you still have to consider the cost of constructing the shaft way, the machine room, electrical, and the actual installation.

With changing times and the need to provide optimum accessibility, residential elevators are no longer a luxury. Elevators in homes have now become symbols of mobility and comfortability in residential properties. Why? Because elevators are not simple gadgets that you can purchase anytime and anywhere. With the usability of elevators even in high-rise residential homes, homeowners were inspired, and they have found the need to install an elevator in their home.

Before jumping into the decision of having an elevator installed in your home, take note of these factors that you need to consider when hiring a brand and a installation service provider

 

  1. Utility. In general, elevators for houses with more than one floor are installed for functionality. If there are elderly in the family and people with limited mobility due to injury and weakness, elevators can definitely help in making short trips within the home with ease. They also remove the cost of climbing the stairs when moving heavy objects or simply lightening the load by not using the stairs to get here and there when doing chores everyday.
  2. Safety. Again, the people who have limited capacity to use the stairs are the one who will benefit most from elevators. Going up and down the stairs can cause accidents even for small children. Stairs could be cause for trips and falls and delay. If your home is equipped with an elevator, the safety of these people from going anywhere in the house is assured.
  3. Upgrade. Elevators add value to your home. Modern architecture have innovative ways to beautify your home and save space as much as possible without making drastic modification on the edifice. Modern elevator designs are sleek and fit right into one’s taste and interior aesthetic. And once your home design is at industry’s level, it will increase its real estate value. The impression of having a home elevator cannot be leveled by those without.

What are the considerations?

If you are planning to add an elevator in your house and you want to know how much it is going to cost you, first, you need to ask yourself if you have a designated space for it and how large or small that space you can spare. Consider all the aspects of installation꞉ the concrete, electrical, painting, flooring, framing, etc. This could be a difficult assessment if you have totally no idea how to go about it.

You can also start your assessment by checking elevators and mobility device dealers. At DELTA Accessibility, all your queries will be answered. They have a team of experts that will help you make a decision you will not regret because they understand your needs. Call now for a FREE assessment.
