Residential S-Series Elevator
Description

With class-leading speed, style, and safety, Powerglide's S-Series lifts have flexible sizing and car configurations, and decor options to suit any home. Powerglide's Design Team offer a hands-on approach as befits a slightly more involved specification process. 

The S-Series Elevator delivers everything from Powerglide's A-Series Elevator, plus a raft of extra features. This includes a wider choice of car configurations for ease of integration into any design, as well as more flexibility in car shape and sizing. Lift speed jumps to an unmatched 9 seconds floor-to-floor*, load capacity increases to 350kg, and the increased available travel distance allows for up to 5 stops. The S-Series also features the reassurance of an electronic safety curtain or pressure-sensitive edge protection for the highest possible levels of safety.  

The Designer Decors range of professionally coordinated wall colour, trims and handrails allow seamless integration with the interior style of the home, and avoid the elevator looking and feeling like an afterthought.

Configurations

  • The S-Series is available in five different car configurations allowing for entry/exit on different sides for each floor
  • Configurations include: Full Car, Corner Car, Enclosed Platform, Through Car, and Open Car

Designer Decors
