Beverly Hills, California
Our US counterpart Elevator Boutique installed the home lift in one of the newest estates in Trousdale, Beverly Hills, listed at $65,000,000. The cabin pairs Italian Skinplate walls with a clear glass rear wall, and the doors close flush in the same finish.
The house sits in Trousdale Estates with about 1,670 m² of living space, seven bedrooms and a lower level that holds a 2,000-bottle wine cellar, a wellness centre, a gym and a home theatre. A home with that much to offer below ground needs an easy way down. The lift brings the cellar and the screening room as close as the kitchen, and it does it with the same restraint as the rest of the architecture.
The tour reaches the lift at 12:57.
This house was built to be seen. The tour opens on a $250,000 tree, and the rest of the house keeps that standard: stone, glass and long views over Los Angeles.
A lift in a house like this cannot look like equipment. It has to sit inside the architecture with the same restraint as the joinery around it.

The lift
The cabin side walls, ceiling and car doors are Italian Skinplate, a fine textured steel with a soft matt finish. The rear wall is clear glass, so light passes through the cabin.
There is no handrail and no clutter. The control panel sits flush and vertical, the phone is flush with black buttons, and the floor was finished by the builder to match the house.
The lift carries In Cabin Self Rescue, battery backup and self-levelling at every stop. If the power fails, the cabin lowers itself and the doors open. Nobody waits for a technician.
The shaft was framed in timber by the builder to our engineering drawings, with a shallow 150 mm pit.
Skinplate walls, doors and ceiling give the cabin one calm surface.
A clear glass rear wall keeps the ride bright.
In Cabin Self Rescue brings the cabin down safely in a power outage.
This home was completed by our US counterpart Elevator Boutique in California. The same range is built for Australian homes, and you can ride it at our showrooms.
