A New Residential Elevator Is Finally Installed And Buying Guide Info

I promised to follow up on a recent post featuring a home that was to have a ThyssenKrupp residential elevator installed. The elevator is up (and down) and running like a charm.

The elevator installation was delayed about a month but the finishing touches were being taken care of today.

An installer with Pacific Hardwood Floors had just finished laying the unfinished solid oak floor inside of the ThyssenKrupp Access elevator and was making a few tweaks to get the stair nose installed on the threshold. After he’s done he would then prepare the wood for stain and urethane treatment to match the existing installed floor.

I was actually a little disappointed at how mundane the elevator looked inside. Nothing fancy. Just some wood grain paneling on the inside with a handrail and the essential buttons and phone. I was hoping for something a little more grand because the house has some fantastic architectural details and some very unique “high end” details, as well. It is The Lev, nonetheless. The weight capacity is 950 lbs. and would comfortably fit four adults inside.
