1. Hydraulic Home Elevators – Powerful, Reliable, and Flexible

How Hydraulic Lifts Work

Hydraulic lifts operate using a piston and fluid drive mechanism to push the cabin up and down. Known for their power, reliability, and stability, they are well-suited for heavier loads while providing smooth and silent travel.

Elite’s Hydraulic Offering

• E200 Model – A robust lift, available with swing or sliding doors, and in standard or elegance options. Compact yet powerful, the E200 accommodates up to 400 kg, making it suitable for families with seniors, wheelchairs, or heavy hauling needs.

Advantages of Hydraulic Lifts

• Substantial weight capacity – up to 400 kg.
