Zenith Home Elevator

The top-of-the-line home elevator

Indulge in the finest ride quality with whisper-quiet operation. The Zenith combines all the trappings of a commercial elevator, with the space-saving design needed to fit in your home. If you’re looking for the kind of elegance that makes every ride an experience, the Zenith will deliver with proven performance and robust reliability.

Why choose the Zenith residential elevator

For those who like the finer things

Based on our commercial-grade Orion MRL (machine roomless) elevator, the Zenith features a geared traction counterweight design. Requiring only a small space in a closet for components, the elevator can be installed without a traditional machine room. Take care of every detail with a range of upgrade options like glass-framed auto slim doors and luxury cab finishes.

Engineered from our commercial-grade drive system, the Zenith delivers a butter-smooth ride quality, along with superbly quiet operation. The counterweight roped traction system includes the Savaria commercial motor and gearbox. The machine roomless design means that only a small utility space is needed for the elevator controller.
