Frequently Asked Questions

How is the Cube Lift different from a round vacuum elevator?

The Cube Lift features a unique square 36" x 36" cabin instead of a round cylinder. This gives you a more spacious, modern feel with 32" x 32" internal dimensions - ideal for walkers, luggage, or boxes - while still using the same proven air-powered pneumatic technology.

Is the Cube Lift wheelchair accessible?

The 25" entrance width accommodates narrow mobility aids. For full ADA-compliant wheelchair access, please contact us to discuss the best model for your needs.

What maintenance does the Cube Lift need?

Minimal upkeep is required. Annual inspections are recommended. Coastline Lift offers flexible maintenance plans tailored to your usage and model.

Will it work during a power outage or storm?

Yes. The Cube Lift automatically descends safely to the ground floor and remains secure until power is restored - no manual intervention needed.

How long does installation take?

Most Cube Lift installations are completed in just 2-3 days. Coastline Lift handles all permitting, site prep, and code compliance from start to finish.

Can the turbine unit be placed remotely?

Yes. The Split-Unit option allows the turbine to be located up to 30 feet away - in an attic, closet, or even outdoors with the appropriate package - reducing in-cabin noise significantly.
