Savaria Vuelift Octagonal Home Elevator

Panoramic, prismatic luxury makes a stunning statement

The Vuelift Octagonal elevator is gorgeously unique with its eight-sided design. Available in glass, or acrylic, this model is a statement maker, backed by a reliable and quiet winding drum drive. Spacious inside, but remarkably space-saving in its design, the Vuelift Octagonal fits beautifully inside wraparound staircases. It offers an 840– 950 lb capacity with 12-15 square feet of interior space depending on the choice of three models.

Vuelift Octagonal in Three Models

It’s an art to bend acrylic or glass in beautiful angles to create the faceted gem effects offered in the Vuelift Octagonal. It’s just one reason why luxury homeowners, builders and architects choose it. From traditional homes to ultra-modern residences, Vuelift Octagonal fits in, while offering a focal point in and of itself. The Glass+ model offers a clear opening of 33” making it well-suited for wheelchair users.

Octagonal Acrylic

Featuring an clear acrylic cab and integrated hoistway, this model delivers beautiful clarity with UV-resistant, structurally strong acrylic, at a lower cost than all-glass. This model has an option to mount the controller in the header area eliminating the need to locate it in your utility room.

Octagonal Glass

This all-glass cab and integrated hoistway sparkles with low-iron silica glass that eliminates any green hue. The measurements with the Octagonal Glass and Acrylic vary only slightly with minor differences inside the cab.
