Space is precious in Australian homes. Next Level Elevators understands this better than anyone. Their compact, fully electric domestic elevators deliver premium functionality without demanding large footprints. These space-saving lifts redefine what’s possible when vertical mobility meets smart design.

How Small Can a Home Elevator Be?

Next Level Elevators offers models engineered for minimal space requirements. The Eltec Volare, for example, fits comfortably within a compact shaft, travelling up to 7.5 metres with up to 4 stops. Its 300 kg capacity supports wheelchair access while occupying a footprint that suits tight spaces. The Eltec HLB model, though larger, remains impressively adaptable with travel up to 20 metres and up to 10 stops, yet still designed to maximise space efficiency.

Space Requirements and Installation Flexibility

Unlike traditional hydraulic lifts that require bulky machine rooms and deep pits, Next Level Elevators’ fully electric systems need no motor room and only a shallow pit depth. Components arrive in flatpacks, enabling installation without heavy machinery or extensive structural modifications. This flexibility allows seamless integration into new builds or retrofits, even in homes with limited available space.

How Do Small Domestic Elevators Compare to Standard Sizes?

Compact domestic elevators do not compromise on comfort or performance. Next Level Elevators’ models maintain wheelchair accessibility, smooth operation and quiet rides despite their smaller footprint. The all-electric belt drive technology ensures energy efficiency and reliability equal to larger lifts. Customisation options for wall panels, flooring and doors mean these lifts blend elegantly with home interiors, enhancing rather than intruding on living spaces.

Benefits Beyond Space-saving

Compact domestic elevators increase property value by adding premium mobility solutions without sacrificing usable floor area. They support multigenerational living by providing safe, easy access across levels. For businesses with low-traffic commercial spaces, compact lifts like the Eltec Access model comply with disability standards while fitting into tight architectural constraints.

Why Next Level Elevators Lead in Compact Lift Solutions

Next Level Elevators combines Italian design excellence from Eltec with Australian innovation. Their lifts run on a single-phase 10 amp power supply, achieve European A-grade energy ratings and come with an industry-leading 7-year warranty. Showrooms in Melbourne and Sydney showcase Australia’s largest working elevator displays, allowing customers to experience compact lift solutions firsthand. Competitive pricing under $50,000 makes these premium elevators accessible without compromise.

Space-saving Lifts for Modern Australian Homes

Compact home elevators from Next Level Elevators prove that size does not limit sophistication or functionality. They deliver elegant, efficient and reliable vertical transport tailored to the spatial realities of Australian homes. For homeowners, architects and builders demanding smart, stylish and practical lift solutions, these space-saving elevators represent the future of home mobility.

Smart home technology has moved from luxury to necessity. Next Level Elevators is leading the way in integrating fully electric lifts with smart home systems, creating a seamless and secure experience in residential and commercial spaces across Australia.

Elevators That Connect with Your Smart Home

Seamless Integration for Everyday Convenience

Next Level Elevators’ lifts can be integrated into your smart home ecosystem, enabling control through compatible smartphones, tablets or home automation systems. With the right setup, you can:

• Call the lift remotely before arriving home
• Schedule it to return to a default floor at night
• Integrate lift use into daily routines for added convenience

These capabilities transform your elevator into a connected feature of your home’s design and function.

Effortless Control with Voice and Apps

Voice Activation Makes Accessibility Simple

Next Level Elevators supports integration with popular platforms such as Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant when connected via compatible smart home systems. This allows you to operate your lift hands-free with simple voice commands like:

• “Call the lift to the living room”
• “Send the lift to the garage”

While voice activation enhances accessibility and convenience, it typically requires connection to a broader home automation setup.

App-Based Control in Your Pocket

Alongside voice control, certain lift models may be managed using a dedicated mobile app. This app can enable you to:

• Check lift status in real time
• Receive maintenance reminders
• Access remote diagnostics and basic controls

Together, these features provide added convenience, control and peace of mind for your home elevator.

Smarter Energy Use Through Technology

Energy Efficiency Built In

Next Level Elevators’ all-electric lifts are already energy efficient, running on a single-phase 10 amp power supply with European A-grade energy ratings. With IoT integration, your elevator can enter standby mode during inactivity, monitor usage patterns and adjust power consumption. This helps lower energy costs while reducing your environmental impact. Smart technology enhances performance, supporting your sustainability goals with greater efficiency.

Security and Safety Tailored to Your Needs

Advanced Features to Protect Your Space

Smart elevators provide more than convenience, delivering enhanced security features such as:

• Access control using PINs, biometrics or mobile devices
• Integration with your home’s security system for emergency response
• Customisable permissions to restrict access to specific users

These features are particularly valuable in households with children, older adults or multiple occupants, ensuring safety and peace of mind.

Where Custom Design Meets Smart Technology

Design Your Lift, Connect Your Life

Next Level Elevators offers a wide range of customisation options. You can choose from glass, timber or stone finishes for walls and flooring, select sliding or swing doors to suit your space, and customise lighting, mirrors and control panels to reflect your interior style. These beautiful design choices are combined with smart IoT integration, making your elevator both a design statement and a connected, intelligent feature of your home.

Installation Without the Complexity

Expert Delivery and Long-Term Support

Despite their advanced features, smart lifts from Next Level Elevators are straightforward to install. The team ensures:

• Delivery via flatpack components, avoiding cranes or large equipment
• Installation tailored to your timeline and home structure to minimise disruption
• Ongoing servicing and support across Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland
• A 7-year warranty for quality and durability

You can rely on Next Level Elevators to deliver a smooth experience from design through to operation.

A home elevator should do more than provide mobility between floors. It should reflect your personal style, enhance your living space and improve everyday convenience. Next Level Elevators understands this balance. Their fully electric lifts, designed in collaboration with renowned Italian manufacturer Eltec, offer extensive customisation options so your lift feels like a seamless part of your home.

A range of customisable features

Next Level Elevators gives you the freedom to choose from a wide variety of design finishes and fittings. Whether you prefer a contemporary or classic look, your elevator can be tailored to suit your interior:

• Wall panels are available in glass, timber veneer or other stylish finishes to match your home.
• Flooring options include timber, stone or custom-etched designs for a personal touch.
• Door choices include swing or sliding styles, both available in a variety of sizes and finishes.
• Lighting can be customised to suit the mood of the space, from functional downlights to ambient accents.

Handrails, mirrors and control panels can also be selected based on your design preferences and accessibility requirements.

The Eltec HLB: Built for flexibility

The Eltec HLB model is ideal for complex home layouts and multi-storey living. It supports:

• Multiple stops and up to 20 metres of vertical travel
• Customisable cabins with a choice of materials, colours and glass sliding doors
• A sleek touch panel interface that brings smart functionality into the home

This model combines cutting-edge technology with design versatility, making it one of the most advanced home elevators available in Australia.

Designed to enhance your home

A home lift should feel like a natural extension of your living space. With thoughtful design, your elevator becomes more than a utility—it becomes a feature.

Glass walls create openness and let light flow through your home. Timber and stone finishes add warmth and complement high-end interiors. Mirrors increase the sense of space while soft lighting creates ambience. These design choices ensure your lift blends into your home rather than standing apart from it.

Safety and usability without compromise

Customisation isn’t limited to looks. You can also configure your lift with features that improve safety and everyday convenience:

• Emergency stop buttons and overload alarms offer peace of mind.
• Automatic lights and doors enhance ease of use.
• Optional integration with home alarm systems improves overall security.
• Even small touches, like colour-matched emergency phones or half-height mirrors, allow you to personalise without sacrificing function.

Streamlined installation and support

Installation is straightforward. The elevator is delivered in flatpacks, eliminating the need for cranes or large-scale construction equipment. This allows for faster and less disruptive installation.

Next Level Elevators offers expert consultation from design to installation. Their team works with you to understand your style and space, ensuring the lift meets your practical needs and aesthetic goals. A 7-year warranty backs every installation, reflecting their commitment to quality and reliability.

Electric home elevators are transforming Australian homes, offering a combination of innovation, sustainability and convenience. Once considered a luxury found only in large mansions, they are now becoming practical additions to modern homes. Homeowners are embracing them not just for accessibility, but also for their design versatility and environmental performance.

How electric lifts outperform hydraulic systems

Electric lifts run on standard single-phase power and consume significantly less energy than traditional hydraulic systems. Unlike hydraulic models that rely on fluid pressure and ongoing maintenance, electric lifts operate cleanly and efficiently. This reduced energy usage translates into lower running costs and a smaller carbon footprint, aligning with the growing trend towards eco-friendly living.

A quieter lift with less space required

One of the key advantages of electric home elevators is their quiet operation, making them ideal for residential settings. Their compact design does not require large machine rooms or deep structural pits, allowing seamless integration into both new builds and existing homes with minimal disruption. This flexibility opens up lift installation to a wider range of households and architectural styles.

Custom design and Italian craftsmanship

Next Level Elevators has partnered with Italian manufacturer Eltec to bring high-end, fully electric home elevators to Australia. These models, including the Eltec Volare and HLB, are wheelchair-accessible and offer a wide range of customisable options such as wall finishes, doors and flooring. The combination of Italian design and engineering ensures that the lifts not only perform efficiently but also enhance the aesthetic appeal of a home.

Efficiency leads to long-term value

Although electric elevators may involve higher upfront investment than older systems, the long-term value is clear. Their energy efficiency helps to reduce electricity bills, while their robust design means fewer maintenance issues and a longer lifespan—typically between 20 and 30 years. For homeowners looking for future-proof, low-maintenance infrastructure, electric lifts are a smart and sustainable choice.

Supporting sustainability with government incentives

Sustainable home improvements are increasingly supported by Australian government programs. Initiatives such as the Clean Energy Finance Corporation and the National Disability Insurance Scheme provide rebates, tax incentives and flexible financing options. These supports make electric elevators more accessible for homeowners, particularly those seeking to upgrade for accessibility or energy efficiency.

Why Next Level Elevators stands out

With more than a decade of innovation, Next Level Elevators leads the Australian market in electric, eco-friendly lifts. Their lifts are backed by a 7-year warranty and showcased in the largest working residential lift displays in the country, located in Melbourne and Sydney. Units run on 10 amp single-phase power, meet European A-grade energy standards and are priced competitively under $50,000. Installation is quick and service extends across Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland, making premium vertical mobility more accessible than ever.

A smarter future for Australian homes

Electric home elevators are rapidly becoming essential features in sustainable, accessible and stylish Australian residences. With their quiet operation, energy savings, customisable design and long-term value, they represent a significant shift in how we think about vertical mobility at home.

Next Level Elevators has taken out the 2022 Business Growth award in a highly competitive field of Australian businesses. The remarkable growth was achieved despite exceptionally challenging circumstances brought about by COVID, supply chain issues and significant disruption to the construction sector.  It’s an achievement the whole team is exceptionally proud of. Not only is Next Level Elevators innovating, its growing, hiring, and helping create opportunity. A key component to Next Level Elevators success has been the innovative product range sourced exclusively from partners Eltec Lifts. Next Level Elevators was also shortlisted for the Environmental Business award due its discontinuation of inefficient hydraulic lifts and a commitment to an all-electric technology developed by Eltec.

The awards night was attended by representatives from both the Sydney and Melbourne offices. Director Daniel Mawson accepted the award with New South Wales Project Manager Niall Rice. The award is testament to Next Level Elevators hard work and approach to continuous improvement.

Next Level Elevators have been early adopters with regards to fully electric lifts in the residential space. For nearly 10 years, this specialist elevator business has been importing a stunning range of electric Italian lifts, purpose built for the Australian market. It has always been the aim of Directors Daniel Mawson and Damien Boyle to provide a superior and more sustainable option than hydraulic elevators which have been so prevalent in residential properties to date. Both directors have worked closely with renowned elevator inventor Gianluca Polensig to produce a mix of innovative products which not only address specific pain points for architects, builders and homeowners; but also compete pricewise in relation to less efficient hydraulic lifts.

Director Daniel Mawson says ‘It has been quite the journey and we’re really proud of the elevator range we’ve produced. Not only did we want to create eye-catching elevators, but we also wanted to redefine the industry in terms of technology and sustainability.’

Next Level Elevators’ vision has now become a reality as their new Eltec Access Series replaces the final few hydraulic options within the range. The business’ entire selection of elevators now runs on a dedicated 10A single phase supply and boasts a European A-Grade energy rating.

At Next Level Elevators, we support local and international artists. Therefore, we’re proud to establish a relationship with Nicolas Dixon, the British artist responsible for art creations across our Sydney and Melbourne offices. Recognised internationally for his striking colours, black lines and use of biomorphic shapes, the creative is inspired by the psychologist Carl Jung’s collective unconscious theory as well as the power of revelation through the display of one’s innermost feelings.

It’s deep stuff, yet fun too.

The self-identified spiritual artist is in high demand, or as Marie Claire USA says,

‘Nicolas Dixon is THE UK abstract artist making ripples in UK.’

VICE likens his energetic output to Keith Haring – and it shows.

When Nicolas Dixon even touches his paintbrush, you suspect a big surprise is only moments away. It’s a guarantee. For in pursuit of his art, he’s willing to take himself and us along for a bumpy ride across his mind’s eye to new and exciting places, real and imagery.

Dixon’s art has changed significantly over the years. From detailed black and white abstract shapes to experimentations in colour from early 2011. As he states: ‘They started off quite minimal with block colour but as time’s gone on my style has evolved and now includes more detail.’

He’s also a master of ambiguity. Or as he relates: ‘I still keep things as ambiguous as possible. What can look like the hand of one character is…the nose of another. I try to get across how I view life in general. Everything can be looked at in different perspectives.’ You can feel the passion in his voice.

Ambiguity. Bold ambiguity. It’s what private collectors and the public appreciate about Dixon’s output, from Sydney, Australia, to Antwerp, in Belgium. He keeps it real as well as mysterious while never compromising on style – and his passion attracts passion.

Not confined or restricted to places or cliques, Dixon exhibits a strong confidence one associates with some of the greatest pop artists of the last century. For this artist at least, it’s more important to embrace one’s individuality in a world susceptible to trends with short use-by dates.

In short, the British innovator is a refreshing mixture of talent, individualism and stamina, judging by his output. Throw in some street smarts and bold colours and the results speak for themselves.

Take a bow, Nicolas Dixon.

Here, at Next Level Elevators, we’re happy to question convention and think differently in order to lift the customer’s experience. It’s about improving. It’s about offering choices. It’s about understanding that technology and environmentalism can be good friends. It’s more than a facelift. It’s a positive overhaul. It’s progress.

With a new decade upon us, we’re about working smarter than ever before at Next Level Elevators. Thus, our eco-friendly Eltec HLB elevator is about the present and the future, about delivering positive outcomes that don’t leave a big footprint, about adapting and blending in a fast-changing era. In a nutshell, it’s clean, green and a better machine. As standard hydraulic elevators phase out, it’s also a smart choice for forward-thinking customers. We wouldn’t do it any other way.

First and foremost, users of the modern eco-friendly Eltec HLB elevator will notice its reliability. Unlike inferior alternatives, it stops at the same time, so you can set your watch to it. No unpleasant surprises. No wondering about safety. No loud noise pollution issues either because the motor is housed within the lift’s shaft making for a pleasant experience. With great use, comes a great need for peace and quiet.

Our customers are also for cost and energy savings – and we know how to meet their needs. Running on a 10amp power supply therefore sets the Eltec HLB elevator apart. Hydraulics, by way of contrast, run on 40amps. It’s a big difference for a good cause and one we’re proud of. We will never say no to cost-saving innovations.

Looking good is also a requirement. Why compromise style for efficiency? Relying on minimalist principles, the green elevator is easy to clean – and easy to upgrade in coming years if so desired. Indeed, its walls and ceiling can be replaced within two to four hours. After all, we’re big on flexibility. It’s more than a consideration. It’s a value.

Finally, Next Level Elevators is happy to offer a service-friendly choice for today’s busy clients. Our eco-friendly elevator’s fuses and batteries can easily be replaced. We love its economical credentials in these complex times too as the weight of the counterweight or the cabin is doing most of the work for your convenience – and saving you money. Plus, with fewer moving parts, there’s less room for failure ensuring you finish the decade stronger than when you started. Now that’s thinking differently.
