FAQ
Alberta questions
Do I need a permit for a home elevator in Alberta?
Not for the elevator in a single-family home; the building work and circuit need municipal permits, which we handle.
Do you install in Calgary?
Yes, across Alberta: Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, Lethbridge and Grande Prairie.
Can an elevator go from the basement to the upper floor?
Yes, it is the most common request, and the G1 and Q can often sit on the existing slab.
Can a platform lift go outside in an Alberta winter?
Yes, the S-Lift has weather-sealed versions, and we plan a roof against ice.
Are the parts certified?
The motor and controller can be CSA, UL (cUL) or CE certified. What that covers.
Who services the elevator afterwards?
We do, arranged at handover.
