Home Elevators & Residential Elevators
Symmetry Residential Elevators
While home elevators have been seen as a luxury item in the past, today they are much more of a necessity. With our aging population the use of a home elevator for mobility is now the norm in multi-level construction. The home elevator can provide a safe and convenient way to get between floors.
Whether you’re looking at new construction or retrofitting an existing home, you’re looking for craftsmanship and long-term quality. Symmetry elevators can provide both. All our residential elevators are custom-built, designed and made in America.

Home Elevators: Elegantly Designed, Eminently Practical
Once considered a luxury for the super-rich, today’s residential elevators have become affordable necessities — so much so that modern two-story home blueprints locate closets with an eye to future elevator installations.
Typical Home Elevator Applications
A home elevator provides a safe and convenient way to get between floors, but this is by no means the only reason to add an elevator to your home. Most people have more than a single application in mind when they install residential elevators, including the following:
- Aging in place.
- Improving mobility and the ability to access all levels of the home.
- Transporting people and heavy items without navigating stairs.
- Easier access to different levels for aging pets.
- Personal safety.
- Increased home value.
- Adding a home elevator as a stylistic centerpiece.
- Caring for grandchildren or aging relatives.
Home Elevator Safety
Home elevators are as safe as they are convenient. All residential elevator installations abide by strict safety codes and standards dictating weight limits, travel distances, and speed. In addition, a residential elevator may have safety features such as emergency phones, backup batteries in the event of power failures, and door sensors that prevent elevator doors from closing on people or obstructions. Modern home elevator safety protocols make moving from floor to floor by elevator as safe as using the stairs — or safer if you have mobility issues.
Planning Your Personal Elevator
Home elevators come in a wide range of models, each with its own advantages, accessories, colors, and materials. While planning a personal elevator, you can make it the focal point of a room or blend it seamlessly with your existing decor.
Whether looking at new construction or retrofitting an existing home with a residential elevator, you’re looking for craftsmanship and long-term quality. Symmetry Elevators provides both. All our residential elevators are custom-built, designed, and made in America.
