Transforming A Home With Style
Homeowners today are increasingly seeking solutions that combine safety, comfort, and style. For those with multi-story homes, mobility challenges can become a significant obstacle, especially for elderly residents. Enter the Elvoron HR residential elevator—a solution that elevates not only accessibility but also home design.
Recently, Handel & Son completed a remarkable installation for an elderly client who needed a reliable way to navigate a two-story home with a basement. While the primary concern was mobility, the client also wanted an elevator that would serve as a design feature rather than an interruption to their home’s aesthetic. This project presented both unique opportunities and challenges, and the result is a perfect blend of functionality and visual appeal.
Innovative Design for Limited Spaces
One of the standout features of this installation was the rare 90-degree cab configuration. Unlike standard straight-through elevator designs, the 90-degree cab allows the elevator to fit efficiently into a home with complex floor plans. This is particularly valuable in older or custom homes, where existing layouts may limit traditional elevator placement.
Integrating an elevator into an existing structure often comes with spatial constraints. In this project, the team had to ensure that the elevator could provide easy access from multiple directions without compromising the home’s design flow. The 90-degree configuration was the ideal solution, enabling a compact yet highly functional setup. This design also allowed the elevator to occupy minimal space while remaining accessible and comfortable for the user.
Elegant, Modern Aesthetic
Beyond its technical functionality, the Elvoron HR installation was designed with aesthetics in mind. The elevator features glass swing landing doors paired with three-speed glass car doors, creating a light, modern look that brightens the home and maintains an open, airy feel. The combination of clear glass elements and crisp white fixtures ensures that the elevator blends seamlessly with the home’s elegant interior.
The transparency of the glass doors also provides a visual connection between floors, preventing the elevator from feeling like a closed-off or bulky addition. Instead, it becomes an integrated part of the home’s design, enhancing rather than interrupting the overall aesthetic.
Customization meets Practicality
What sets the Elvoron HR apart is its ability to adapt to the client’s specific needs. From cab configurations to door styles and finishes, every element can be customized to complement the home’s interior. In this project, the combination of the 90-degree cab and modern glass doors addressed both space constraints and design desires, creating a solution that was functional, safe, and visually appealing.
The elevator also provides versatility in use. Its thoughtful layout and access from multiple directions make it ideal for multi-level homes where residents need mobility solutions that do not compromise daily life. The three-speed glass car doors allow smooth, quiet operation, adding to the comfort and convenience of the installation.
Transforming a home with a residential elevator requires careful planning, design expertise, and attention to detail. The recent Elvoron HR installation by Handel & Son illustrates how mobility solutions can be tailored to meet the specific needs of elderly homeowners while enhancing the home’s overall aesthetic. From its innovative 90-degree cab to its elegant glass doors, this project is a perfect example of accessibility meeting artistry.
With solutions like the Elvoron HR, homeowners no longer have to compromise between safety, comfort, and design. Instead, they can enjoy a modern, functional, and beautiful addition that truly transforms their home.
