Many homeowners only realize the importance of installing a home lift after living in their property for years, as life circumstances evolve and the need for future-proofing becomes apparent.

While retrofitting a home lift might seem like a daunting task, Aritco’s innovative design makes it easier and more cost-effective than you might expect. Unlike traditional elevators, Aritco lifts require neither an exterior shaft, a pit below, nor a machine room above, simplifying installation in existing homes and commercial spaces.

The versatility in size and finishes allows for integration into even the most unexpected locations. Here are just a few examples of buildings that have successfully retrofitted Aritco lifts.

Artist’s Home in London

Over forty years ago, a Victorian-era warehouse was transformed into a beautiful home and studio. As time passed, the elderly resident began struggling with the staircases of the four-story building. Unwilling to leave the cherished space, they chose to install an Aritco HomeLift. Discreet yet functional, the home lift not only makes it easier to move throughout the home but also allows for the effortless transport of items like paintings between floors. The retrofitted Aritco HomeLift offers both personal comfort and a practical solution for continuing creative work.

Gothic Cathedral in Germany

In a picturesque city in western Germany, the 13th-century Paderborn Cathedral was also the recipient of a retrofitted Arito lift. The Archdiocese wanted to provide visitors and parishioners access to the cathedral’s newly restored crypt, which houses artworks, sculptures, and hosts several weekly services. They chose an Aritco PublicLift Access for its adaptable design, allowing it to harmonize with the ancient structure. The lift was also chosen because it offered the ability to add additional soundproofing. This feature transformed the already quiet lift into a completely silent accessibility solution, preserving the cathedral’s serene atmosphere while enhancing its inclusivity.

Luxury Villa In Shanwei China

Across the globe in Shanwei, China, a retrofit Aritco HomeLift turned a luxurious multi-story villa into a home that all members of the multi-generational family could enjoy. The stunning architecture and interior design of Phoenix Bay Villa was enhanced by the inclusion of the stylish home lift, which fit perfectly inside the spiral staircase. With the lift’s soft lighting glowing from within the dark dramatic winding stairway, the effect was more work of art than practical mobility solution.

Yorkshire Countryside Home

In the picturesque countryside of Yorkshire, England, owners of a 1940s home cherished their views over the surrounding valley but struggled with their house’s inconvenient layout. The external stairs leading to the lower-level office and guest suite became icy and treacherous during colder months. By retrofitting an Aritco HomeLift, they created safe passage between the main living space and lower area. The ability to have the doors open in both directions meant lift passengers could enjoy a scenic view during their trip.

Aritco’s Lead Designer Enjoys the Fruits of His Labor

Alexander Lervik – the visionary Swedish designer behind the Aritco HomeLift‘s unique design – faced a personal challenge when renovating his three-story 1960s home. With the kitchen located a floor above the main entrance, there was a need to ensure accessibility in case age or an unforeseen circumstance made going up and down the stairs difficult. An Aritco HomeLift was the obvious solution. Lervik also wanted to ensure visitors with mobility limitations could comfortably enjoy his home. His choice of interior lighting and the inclusion of a DesignWall exemplified his vision for a stylish and functional approach to creating a home that everyone can enjoy.
