Outdoor Elevators & LIFTS
If you need an outdoor elevator or lift for your home, our residential elevator company has what you’re looking for.
Manufactured with marine-grade aluminum and stainless steel, our outdoor elevators are built to handle harsh, coastal weather. This makes waterfront properties and beach houses ideal locations for an ODE.
The DuraLyft Outdoor Elevator is the perfect solution for homeowners who want to add an elevator to an existing house but don’t want to take up valuable floor space inside. Avoid the headache and expense of cutting through floors and concrete for a pit.

Third-party inspection and compliance services are provided by Intertek. You may recognize the ETL Intertek logo from various household appliances such as toasters, vacuum cleaners, microwaves, and more.
Intertek‘s purpose is to provide testing to ensure that products meet national standards and that the products are manufactured to the same standards and design that was tested. This ensures that the end-user has a safe and reliable product that is built to national standards set forth by the American Society of mechanical engineers, ASME.
To become listed and authorized to apply the Intertek certification label, our products were thoroughly tested in controlled laboratories and proven to be safe. The design criteria are analyzed to ensure it meets national standards and specifications.
Every fastener, relay, wiring, wire type, terminal block, power supply etc. was tested and analyzed. Once our products passed the testing phase, we were granted authorization to the mark. In order to apply the decal we must build the product exactly the same way as they were tested. To ensure that manufacturers comply with this requirement, quarterly spot checks are performed. An Intertek inspector visits the factory quarterly, unannounced, and verifies the product is being built within spec.
Intertek is an important partner to ensure our products are manufactured to the highest quality and safety standards.ASPIRE LOW RISE VPL
