The cost of a Stiltz home elevator varies based on your specific needs and home layout. The Duo Classic offers the most budget-friendly option for LA homeowners looking for a basic two-person lift, while the Trio Alta sits at the higher end of the price range with its wheelchair-accessible design and premium features. We recommend getting a free consultation to receive an accurate quote for your Los Angeles home, as factors like installation location and any needed modifications will affect the final price.

One of the best things about Stiltz elevators for Los Angeles homes is that they need minimal construction work. Unlike traditional elevators that require a shaft, Stiltz elevators only need an opening between floors for the lift to pass through. The whole installation typically takes just 1-2 days. These elevators don’t need supporting walls since they use self-supporting dual rails (their “stilts”), making them perfect for retrofit installations in existing LA homes.

You won’t get stuck if the power goes out in your Los Angeles home. Every Stiltz elevator comes with a battery backup system that automatically activates during power outages. If you’re using the elevator when the power fails, the backup battery will safely lower the elevator to the ground floor so you can exit. The elevator will wait there until power returns before resuming normal operation.

Yes – but you’ll need to choose the right model. For Los Angeles residents who use wheelchairs or walkers, the Trio Alta is your best option. It’s specifically designed with a larger cab space that fits a standard wheelchair plus a caregiver, while still maintaining a compact 13.5 sq ft footprint. The Duo models work well for those who use walkers or rollators but aren’t suitable for wheelchairs.

Stiltz elevators pack in multiple safety features to protect LA homeowners. They include weight and height sensors that prevent overloading, an emergency stop button, and obstruction sensors that stop the elevator if something’s in the way. There’s also a fall arrest mechanism and a floor lid that’s strong enough to walk on when the elevator is on a different level. Every unit includes an interior phone for emergency calls, and the door won’t open unless the elevator is properly positioned at a landing.
