Why European Screw-Driven Home Elevators Are Gaining Popularity in India

As Indian homes grow more vertical and families prioritize convenience, safety, and inclusive living, the demand for modern home elevators has taken a sharp rise. Among the many options available, one innovation is standing out: the European screw-driven elevator.

With Cibes Lift technology, this trend is transforming how Indian homeowners approach home mobility—offering pitless, machine-room-less lifts that are as sleek as they are secure.

What Is a Screw-Driven Elevator?

A screw-driven elevator uses a rotating screw and nut mechanism to move the lift platform smoothly. Unlike traditional elevators that require a deep pit, overhead shaft, or bulky machine room, these lifts are compact, clean to install, and perfect for Indian homes, especially in retrofit or space-sensitive settings.

Why Indian Families Are Choosing European Home Lifts

At Cibes Lift India, we’ve seen firsthand why homeowners are making the shift:

• In Bengaluru, a customer installed a lift for his elderly parents to ensure they can move safely and independently between floors.
  
• In Chennai, a physically challenged client chose a Cibes home elevator to regain full access to his home—no pit, no hassle.
  
• In Delhi, a thoughtful husband installed one for his pregnant wife, so she could avoid stairs during a delicate stage of life.
  

In all these cases, the decision wasn’t about cost—it was about care, safety, and trust.

Safety First: Why It’s More Than Just a Lift

When buying for your loved ones, safety isn’t optional—it’s essential. Cibes screw-driven elevators are built with:

• Emergency stop and auto-brake systems
  
• Child-safe button panels
  
• Obstruction sensors and auto-stop at the slightest resistance
  
• Backup battery during a power failure
  
• Certified under EN 81-41 European safety standards

These features make our lifts especially suitable for elderly users, wheelchair-bound individuals, and families with children.
