Villa Elevators
A villa elevator needs to fit the available building space as well as the design of the home. Some projects require an indoor elevator with a compact installation arrangement; others need an outdoor lift, a panoramic glass cabin or a round structure designed around a staircase.
At Ningbo Dongao Elevator Co., Ltd., we manufacture residential elevators in different structures and interior configurations. Our Villa Elevators range includes six product types for different residential layouts, installation positions and cabin designs.
1. Villa Elevator Types
External House Elevator
For homes without enough indoor space for an elevator shaft, our External House Elevator can be installed along the exterior wall, with access from a garden or outdoor entrance.
Its listed features include IP54 protection, a protective exterior coating, an entrance rain canopy and cabin insulation.
Modern Lifts for Homes
Our Modern Lifts for Homes feature a three-sided glass cabin and stainless steel frame. Touch buttons, adjustable ambient lighting and voice control are also listed features.
The three-sided glass cabin creates an open visual arrangement for residential interiors.
Round Lift for House
The Round Lift for House has a circular structure, curved glass enclosure and curved cabin door. It is designed for buildings with a suitable round installation opening, including some layouts with the elevator positioned at the center of a staircase.
Luxury Lift Elevator
For residential projects with specific interior design requirements, our Luxury Lift Elevator offers leather cabin wall finishes, natural marble flooring and starry ceiling lighting. Heating and cooling air-conditioning are available as options.
These choices allow buyers to specify the cabin finishes and lighting according to the intended interior design.
Private House Lifts
Our Private House Lifts include a child lock, a noise level below 45 dB and a cabin height of 2.3 m.
Indoor House Elevator
The Indoor House Elevator uses a backpack-type car frame, with guide rails positioned on one side. This arrangement leaves the other three sides available for glass viewing.
The published configuration also includes automatic doors and a compact control cabinet.

3. Customization for Residential Projects
We customize applicable villa elevator dimensions and finishes according to building drawings and measured shaft or installation-opening dimensions.
The available customization items include:
- Cabin dimensions: Cabin width and depth.
- Entrance position: Arranged according to the building layout.
- Door opening: Door opening dimensions.
- Cabin interior: Interior wall finishes and flooring.
- Exterior appearance: Color and finish for applicable configurations.
These options allow the elevator dimensions and appearance to be considered against the actual installation space and residential design. Providing building drawings and measured dimensions gives us the information needed to assess the proposed arrangement before quotation.
