Elevator

Star Allowing for and adding an elevator to your home.

 

Typically an pit that is 8" below floor level is required.

I use a raised floor that is 2' 1-7/8" above slab height.  With an 8" pit that means there is 17-7/8" to spare.

Installer

Destiny Residential Elevators sold by Primarius Elevator in Kirkland
Actually made by National Wheel-O-Vator, a division of ThyssenKrupp Access
509 W. Front St, Roanoke, IL 61561
Destiny Hydraulic elevator $23900, (level of noise 5 to 10 db) requires 8 feet overhead clearance 220 V 30 A and 110 V 15 A.
Use the hydraulic type as they are very quiet.
Can do up to 6 floors, travel of 50 feet.
Car inside size 36" x 48"
Outside dimension of 55" x 53"
Need to allow 6" all the way round for framed walls so a 6' x 6' holes in the concrete floor sounds good.
Need a small pit - 8", but that just means close to the height of the suspended floor in the basement.
