Best residential elevators made in America
The original U.S. home elevator company, providing South Carolina with space-saving, code-compliant elevators for nearly a century.
Custom Home Elevators From an Industry Pioneer
Inclinator was the first home elevator company in America, and our goal is to create elevators to fit any home, so that everybody has improved accessibility and can age in place gracefully. You’ll enjoy the following benefits from an Inclinator home elevator in South Carolina
- Safe mobility: Built‑in standard safety features include emergency stops, door interlocks and gate monitoring, with additional options depending on the drive system.
- Better resale value: A home elevator broadens market reach to buyers across the Palmetto State concerned with accessibility and their families’ mobility needs now and in the future.
- Space efficiency: Our elevators take up about 15 square feet of space, much less than a typical set of interior stairs, which requires more floor space due to its shape.
