Educated buyers make intelligent decisions.
Elevator Boutique has sold and installed hundreds of elevators over last decade.
Clients who have purchased the best elevator for their situation are happy.
We like happy!
To learn the differences, visit our showrooms, and be happy.
Elevator Boutique is different, which is why we are often imitated and never duplicated.
Where we are not the best value proposition, we choose not to compete and will often recommend someone else.
You must visit their showroom or work premise before paying anything to anyone.
Websites and the internet can fool many, and have.
Try the products before you buy them, and get to meet the team.
People are often more cautious with Tinder, than with their home elevator supplier.
Tools and Strategies to Independently Check Suppliers:
Elevator Boutique cannot be everything to everybody.
If you are in the market for a cheap medical device, great options from China and Australia can be considered.
Stilz, which trades as Stiltz and Elevatordon markets through agents and directly.
They make their elevator, including the motor (Nord in China), in China. This machine can be adjusted on-site and is sold for as little as $22,000 in the UK.
The Australian distributor conceals its origin to increase the price and rebadges it as the Elegance.
Make sure you squeeze hard on the price and use RESI Elevators from Tasmania.
Or, the Australia Distributor of Stiltz, known as Compact Home Elevators, further savings can usually be made due to the NDIS.
We are sorry we cannot assist with this segment of the market; we hope this guide was helpful to you.
Elevator Boutique sells and installs a range of exclusive home elevators.
All the elevators are unique to Elevator Boutique and developed in collaboration with the manufacturers.
Reliable Supply Chain
Elevator Boutique only sells proven elevators to ensure consistency and certainty for critical issues:
Changes
Which drive to use?
Is often confused.
This is caused by salespeople who want you to buy what they sell.
Rather than what is best for you.
Hydraulic Drives Do Not Smell or Burn Oil

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!

Home elevators have become increasingly popular in California as homeowners seek to enhance accessibility and convenience within their private homes. These elevators are no longer exclusive to luxury homes; they can be tailored to various budgets.
The cost of a home elevator in California can vary widely depending on several factors:
Elevator Type: The type of elevator you choose significantly affects the price.
Hydraulic Home Elevators: These are typically the most cost-effective, with starting prices at around $50,000 for a two-stop elevator
Traction Home Elevators: Premium traction elevators may start at $50,000 for a two-stop elevator
Finishes and Customization: The level of customisation and finishes you select will also impact the price.
Additional Expenses: Remember that the elevator’s cost is just one part of the overall expense. You should also allocate funds for finishing work around the elevator and any necessary building works.

Whether it is a stunning view or a busy living room many clients enjoy the luxury of being able to see what is going on around them while travelling in their private elevator.
Although we have a full range of glass shafts (steel and aluminum) these pictures show some of the amazing glass shafts that general contractors have provided for a complete customized finish.
Many clients prefer a blend in look where they can tie their elevator doors into the home’s decor.
This guide showcases various projects where clients have integrated/concealed their elevator with a variety of custom finishes.
We are finding more clients are wanting to build an elevator shaft at the build stage and installing the elevator later.

The Shrewd and Anti-Competitive behaviour is systematically destroying the consumer benefits of the Australian elevator industry.
“Follow the money”
In this industry, it flows to the OEMs and their pawns who pay lip service to competition and bamboozle the regulators and the market.
They are patient and unstoppable, and consumers and small businesses lose in the end.
Definitions supplied by Standards:
Withdrawn: The withdrawn status indicates that a Standard is no longer relevant. Standards Australia will not undertake further work to maintain or update a withdrawn Standard. However, this does not impact the publication’s availability, or the public’s ability to use the publication. It is still possible for a withdrawn Standard to be used within an industry or referenced by a government if they choose to do so. One reason for this may be because there are no replacement technical publications readily available.
Obsolescent: The obsolescence of a publication is usually initiated when the responsible TC determines that the product is not recommended for new equipment or as a current practice, but needs to be retained in order to provide for servicing of existing equipment or requirements. Even though the technology is no longer current, an obsolescent publication must continue to be reviewed and maintained, for example, to reflect legislative changes that may prohibit the use of certain materials referred to in the publication, such as asbestos or ozone depleting substances.
In regards to superseded standards they remain available and are classed as superseded i.e. similar to withdrawn standards they are no longer up to date however do have a new standard which has replaced them.
The Standards are being systematically replaced with EN (European Normative) and other overseas standards. The reason is allegedly on a justification that they are safer, without explaining why they are needed. The existing standards are already safe, and all they will achieve is to restrict competition. They dare not suggest the existing standards are unsafe in the first place for fear of being held to that or causing unnecessary product recalls for which there is no need.
The Australian Standards are flagrantly replaced by European ones only to assist International companies in making profits in Australia to the exclusion of the Australian market. If you feel strongly, report it to the ACCC.
Elevator Boutique is not protesting, merely reporting. Elevator Boutique is likely to benefit from this anti-competitive practice due to our already well-established size and scale and engineering strengths. The conduct will cause our smaller Australian competitors with limited resources to struggle and make it nearly impossible for them to innovate.
Elevator Boutique does not collude and refuses to take part in any anti-competitive or border line illegal conduct
