Outdoor homelifts are lifts installed entirely outside without affecting the structure or interior space of the house. They are not only installed in many skyscrapers, shopping centers, etc., but this type of lift is also commonly used in many households.
So why should you install this type of lift? What are the considerations when installing an outdoor homelift? Let's explore with Benelifts below this article.
1. Why install an outdoor homelift?
Unlike homelifts indoors, outdoor homelifts have features that are suitable for the conditions and necessary requirements of the users they serve. The following reasons will help you understand why you should install this type of lift:
Appreciate outdoor scenery
Outdoor homelifts are often installed with high-quality, standard clear glass, allowing you and your family to uniquely view the outdoor scenery from high to low. It helps you admire the panoramic view of the landscape both day and night.
Moreover, outdoor glass homelifts or glass models also enhance the aesthetic appeal of the building, thereby increasing the property value for investors.
Optimize living space
To install a homelift, you need to prepare a fairly large space to build the lift shaft. In situations where living space is limited, using an outdoor glass homelift is considered the perfect solution for both improving the quality of life and enjoying modern conveniences.
Limited space for renovated houses
For a renovation project, installing an additional homelift is not easy. Because the elevator shaft cannot be planned in advance, nor can it have much impact on the overall structure of the house. Therefore, outdoor homelifts are often designed to minimize changes to the building structure.
This type of glass homelift is installed outdoors, so it does not take up space.
2. Considerations when installing an outdoor homelift
Due to the strict and complex requirements of this outdoor glass homelift model, to ensure safety, you need to pay attention to the following issues during installation:
Choose suitable materials
The outdoor installation location significantly affects the durability of the lift. Since it must withstand harsh weather conditions, materials with good resistance need to be chosen.
Ensure the size of the outdoor homelift
Outdoor homelifts need to have a size that meets the corresponding level of usage for the number of people who need to move. This standard is related to the lift load capacity and should be carefully consulted with the manufacturer. You can use imported homelifts from Europe with various load capacities as required.
Choose the size of the outdoor homelift according to usage needs
Design and build the lift shaft
The homelift shaft is usually separate from the house foundation. Therefore, the construction phase requires careful calculation to avoid cracking that could affect the house. You can choose to drive piles for the lift shaft to ensure it is robust and safe.
Select a suitable installation location
Choosing a suitable location for installing an outdoor homelift not only affects the aesthetics but also makes it more convenient for homeowners to use. You should choose a location in the central area, dry and well-ventilated. Avoid installing in dark, damp areas that can cause the lift to malfunction and accumulate bad air.
Select a suitable location for installing the homelift
Regular and timely maintenance
Outdoor glass homelifts are directly exposed to the external environment. Therefore, for this type of homelift, regular and timely maintenance is necessary to ensure that the equipment operates smoothly and safely. Depending on the type of elevator and the manufacturer, you should have it inspected and maintained 3 to 5 times a year.
