We have a simple and direct approach on how to deliver a flawless elevator in diverse architectural projects, which is based on a philosophy of trust, listening, support, and clear communication. We understand our clients’ needs, and how the masters of building and home design require the best to deliver the desired feeling and functionality of every space.
Our success is built on this philosophy, and is embodied through the dedication, professionalism, and skilled knowledge of our staff. We keep comprehensive records of every project through cloud-based technology, so it appears as if we have a perfect memory.
Elevator Boutique understands that homeowner needs are vastly different from those of commercial buyers, which is why all clients have a dedicated contact person. Your relationship with us is long term, and we are true to our promise of a full-service experience and support from the start. It is more than just an elevator; it is a winning process.
(to some customers).
After 24 years in business, we have learned that satisfaction and safety matters more than money.
Due to high demand and skilled labour shortages in the economy, Elevator Boutique is capping order quantities for the foreseeable future to ensure the high standards and quality is maintained. We love to succeed, rather than win.
Problem elevators do not go away, it just gets worse. It’s not simple to substitute a elevator, it needs to be fixed and the clients need to be satisfied. We are proud of our near 5 STAR rating on 3,124 Google reviews.
If we will not make you happy, we are going to decline to do the job. We will decline for the following reasons:
Thanks for your understanding.
This way everybody succeeds, and dissatisfaction is avoided.
Homeowners want personal contact, trust, discretion, and reliability.
The elevator is part of their home, and we are part of their personal service team who cares for them. (eg Doctor, Pool Service, Plumber, Dentist, Cleaner, etc).
Elevator Boutique has been careful to develop its systems so that personal contact is not lost, despite the size and scale of the business.
The needs of a homeowner are very different to those of a commercial buyer. We understand that. Our system and staff training mean that your records are quickly available.
Our high staff retention with service technicians usually staying in their area means you will get to know your service technician.
Large and efficient does not mean a loss of care.
Elevator Boutique is different!
Often imitated and never duplicated.
It is proprietary; it is unique, and it creates economies of scale and value for our clients.
Custom built since 2006, the integrated system is unique and is the backbone of Elevator Boutique’s success. Unsurprisingly, it is the envy of the industry and is routinely targeted by competitors who do not wish to do the work. Elevator Boutique offers a confidential reward for proof of intellectual property theft.
The system causes genuine savings which are passed onto our customers through lower prices.
Because safety is Paramount.
It is most important. It is not negotiable for clients or staff. Elevator Boutique has an enviable safety record for this reason.
The elevators have numerous safety features, so have them all demonstrated at your showroom visit.
A full list of the safety features can be found in the elevator section.
In-Cabin Self Rescue, rescue from the machine space, emergency communication, power failure sensing lowering, and more. They are all different, but all critical to your safety.
Not all elevators are equal. Make sure you get the best.
Why it matters:
Home elevators are in homes, which are often locked to the outside world. An emergency technician may not be able to access your house!
Traditional elevators are in public locations, easily accessible by the general public.

How it works – In the event of a minor failure:
The battery-backed-up computer checks the landing doors for locked status. (it must be locked).
If the elevator is not in its emergency brakes, the passenger presses and holds two buttons together and the elevator slowly moves to floor level and unlocks the door for a safe exit.
The 2002 Australian standard for home elevators was written prior to Elevator Boutique including this invention of the in-cabin self-rescue device in 2007. It is allowed by the standard contrary to our competitors’ whimpering.
Unlike a public location where access to the property is simple, your home could be securely locked, meaning rescuers need to break in. You may be at home alone. A sensor for power failure (which we do have) alone is not enough in our honest opinion. You may agree with our competitors that it is enough.
Checked by WorkCover of NSW, the Elevator Boutique IN CABIN SELF RESCUE feature is entirely safe. Don’t wait for rescue, get yourself out!

Elevator Boutique does not service other elevator brands due to efficiency and risk minimization. We do not grow the portfolio through piecemeal acquisitions of failed companies. This means:
Elevator Boutique provides regular service, repair service, and after-hour emergency assistance
Savings are passed to customers. Warranty on parts and labour to replace is available for an annual fee. This warranty is transferable and resides with the elevator. The associated conditions are fair and reasonable.

There are many different home elevators on the market. Educated clients test them before buying.
Elevator Boutique’s showrooms are the best in the niche’. They are a comfortable environment to explore options, try the different size cabins, and ride the different drive systems.
Before making a big purchase for a permanent high tech addition to your home, you want confidence. This is not possible from an image or a brochure.
We look forward to welcoming you to one of our showrooms.
Your home elevator supplier is a member of your personal services team. It’s a relationship.
Elevator Boutique clients buy more than a elevator, they get the full-service experience.
The relationship starts with meeting the designers in the showrooms before you commit. Our designers assist to create the right elevator, personalized to your requirements.
Detailed drawings are prepared by the engineers of your elevator, who manufacture it in Europe once approved.
The construction support team, site managers and installation teams will assist in site preparation, then ship your elevator to site and install it at the agreed time.
The service department provides 24/7 support after that with lifetime parts coverage available.
At Elevator Boutique you are cared for before, during, and after the installation process.
It’s more than just a elevator, it’s a winning process, that creates a great relationship. (see reviews online)
