When it comes to installing a home lift, indoor space isn’t always on your side. Whether it’s a heritage home with a tricky floor plan or a new build with no lift shaft allowance, there’s another option, outdoor lift installation. At Axis Lifts, we supply and install Aritco outdoor lifts across Queensland and Northern NSW, offering a practical and stylish solution when indoor placement just isn’t feasible.
Why Install a Lift Outside?
Fitting a lift on the exterior of your home or building can be the ideal answer to limited indoor space. It also offers an easy way to bridge levels outdoors, connecting the garden to the veranda, terrace to pool deck, or garage to your main entry. An outdoor lift provides greater independence and convenience, particularly for those with mobility concerns or wheelchair users.
Aritco Outdoor Lifts Available Through Axis Lifts
Axis Lifts proudly supplies three Aritco models suitable for outdoor use:
- Aritco HomeLift Access; Ideal for private residences, with optional wheelchair accessibility.
- Aritco PublicLift Access; Suitable for public or commercial spaces.
- Aritco PublicLift Cabin; A fully enclosed cabin lift for heavier use in commercial environments.
All outdoor lift models are compact in design, with the machinery housed inside the shaft—so there’s no need for a separate machine room. Installation requires only a shallow, well-drained, and frost-protected pit.
Built to Withstand the Elements
Aritco outdoor lifts are engineered to perform in harsh weather. Standard features include:
- Galvanised steel roof and door canopy
- Water-resistant call buttons
- Anti-corrosion guide rails (class 5) and paint finishes (corrosion class C3)
- Ventilation fans in the shaft for airflow
- Optional heater for colder climates
These lifts are tested for operating temperatures from +40°C down to -5°C. In colder regions, an insulated and heated shaft can be added. If your property experiences high winds, reinforced shaft options can handle up to 25 m/s wind load anything higher than that and an inside lift must be considered.
Customisation Options
With over 200 RAL colour options available, Aritco lifts can be designed to blend seamlessly with the exterior of your home or building. From minimalist designs to modern architectural finishes, these outdoor lifts can be as discreet or as bold as you like.
