The PVE30 is the most compact option. Use this table to confirm it suits your space and capacity needs.
No. The 20-inch entrance and internal cabin dimensions suit one standing passenger. If wheelchair access is a requirement, the PVE52 is the correct model. Coastline Lift will confirm the right unit during a free site visit.
The main seal replacement is required approximately every 5 years or 15,000 rides, whichever comes first. Annual inspections are recommended. Coastline Lift offers maintenance plans so you never need to track the schedule yourself.
The elevator descends automatically to the ground floor at a controlled, reduced speed. No battery backup is required because gravity handles the descent. Doors open normally when it arrives at ground level.
Power is drawn only during ascent. Descent uses no electricity at all. The draw is comparable to a standard washing machine. For most homeowners, the monthly impact is just a few dollars depending on how often the elevator is used.
Yes. It requires only a 32-inch finished floor hole with no pit, shaft, or machine room. Most existing homes qualify with minimal preparation. Coastline Lift performs a complete site assessment to confirm before installation begins.
Yes. The PVE30 is built from anodized aluminum and polycarbonate, both highly resistant to corrosion in coastal salt-air environments. Hurricane anchoring brackets are available and recommended for all elevated properties.
Yes. The optional Smart Home Integration upgrade connects the PVE30 to Amazon Alexa and Google Home for voice-controlled operation. A solar panel package is also available for completely off-grid, zero-emission operation.
Yes, consistently. A home elevator adds measurable resale value and broadens buyer appeal, particularly in coastal Florida markets. For vacation rental owners, it also supports premium nightly rates and stronger booking rates.
The turbine produces a soft, consistent hum during ascent. The split-unit option, which moves the turbine up to 30 feet away into an attic or closet, reduces in-cabin noise significantly. Descent is nearly silent because no motors engage on the way down.
Yes, completely. We handle all permit applications, local building code submissions, and HOA approvals. You do not need to contact any government office or inspection agency. We manage everything from first submission to final sign-off.
We were skeptical a real elevator could fit in our 30A beach house, but Coastline Lift made it happen in three days. Professional crew, clean installation, and the PVE30 has been running perfectly for over a year.
