Telecab & Telecab17 Home Lifts

Space-Saving Accessibility, Seamless Living

The Telecab and Telecab17 offer a breakthrough in home mobility with their through-the-floor design. These lifts deliver easy access between two floors without the need for a traditional hoistway, minimizing construction and maximizing space. With their compact design, both models blend effortlessly into any home environment, providing reliability and convenience in every lift.

Innovative Design That Fits Any Home

Forget complex renovations—Telecab lifts travel smoothly through a simple floor cut-out, making them ideal for homes where a full elevator installation isn't feasible. The drive system is housed in an enclosed tower, keeping mechanical components discreet and out of sight.

  • Telecab: Perfect for standard accessibility needs, with a 500 lb capacity.

  • Telecab17: Designed for heavier loads, offering an 845 lb capacity for larger mobility devices.

Simple, sleek, and effective. Move through your home with ease using the Telecab series.
