When it comes to ensuring easy access to your entire home, External Lifts are the ultimate modernisation addition that you can make.

SPACE SAVING

Lifts for Houses External Lifts are a simple solution for existing properties that do not have enough available space inside, as well for those properties that are built on steep inclines where a traditional lift could not be used. Those lifts that are not directly fitted to the outside of the house or building, can have a small walk way into the property. Our External lifts can be designed and made to bespoke specifications to suit the facade of the property with a number of finishes to choose from.
