Lift Ease FAQs

Home elevators typically range from $36,000 to $100,000+, depending on the lift type, number of levels served, shaft requirements, cabin dimensions and interior finish. Final pricing depends on your property, and we do a site assessment before quoting.

We mainly work across Victoria, with a showroom at 61 Slater Parade, Keilor East, and also service parts of New South Wales, South Australia and Tasmania. Our NSW office is in Surry Hills.

Yes. Our Keilor East showroom is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, and saturdays by appointment only. You can book a visit online.

A Factory backed 5 Year Parts Warranty on all our full elevators, and 2 years on the Levare compact lifts.

Yes. Our elevators are built to AS 1735, with full adherence to Australian Lift Standards. Our commercial lifts are DDA compliant, with tactile controls, auto doors and compliant cabins.

No. Every Lift Ease unit is machine-room-less, so no model needs a separate machine room.

Yes, a large percentage of home lifts are retrofitted.

Most modern home lifts need only a shallow pit, somewhere between 30 mm and 200 mm below the lowest floor. The Vector Pro needs 120 mm and the Atlus 50 to 150 mm.

Both work well. Hydraulic lifts like the Vector Pro are proven and smooth; electric drives like the Atlus screw drive and the Zenith Ultra belt drive need no hydraulic oil. The right one depends on your space and floors.

Home lifts have a battery backup that brings the car to the nearest landing and opens the door, so nobody is left sitting in a stopped lift.

We recommend a minimum of one service per year, twice-yearly for heavily used lifts, or as outlined by the manufacturer's servicing schedule.

The Vector Pro is designed to be compact, often fitting into the space of a standard closet. We offer a free consultation to assess your home's specific needs.

The Vector Pro needs a pit of just 120 mm.

The Vector Pro travels up to 10 m and serves up to 4 stops, with cabins up to 1100 × 1350 mm.

No. Thanks to its submerged worm screw hydraulic motor, the pump needs only a small cupboard, with no machine room.

No. The Vector Pro is one of the quietest hydraulic lifts in the Australian market, with no loud noise: our showroom unit measured 42 dB. Its leak-proof ram design means zero leaks, spills or odours, so there is no oil smell.

Single phase 230VAC, like all our home elevators. It draws around 14 A depending on configuration, less than the standard 32 A typical of electric traction. Only the E1 commercial lift needs three phase power.

Yes. Standard cabins range from 750 × 700 mm to 1100 × 1350 mm, with complete bespoke sizing available. Raise wheelchair access at the first site visit so the cabin is specified for it from the start.

Installation of the Vector Pro typically takes 1–2 weeks.

Only a shallow one. The Atlus has a low to no pit option, needing a pit depth of 50 mm to 150 mm.

The Atlus shares the Vector Pro load (400 kg, 5 person), door, cabin and sizing options, including cabins up to 1100 × 1350 mm. It uses an electric hybrid screw drive instead of hydraulics, travels at 0.15 to 0.30 m/s and needs only a 50 to 150 mm pit.

No. Its fully contained screw system means no oil mess and reduced maintenance requirements.

Single phase 230VAC, like all our home elevators. Only the E1 commercial lift needs three phase power.

Installation of the Atlus typically takes 1–2 weeks.
