At Tecnolift, we know that not all communities of neighbors have ample space to install a conventional elevator. Therefore, we offer specific solutions in small elevators, ideal for old buildings, narrow portals or reforms that seek accessibility without major works.

Many buildings constructed before the 1980s lack elevator shafts. This represents a major barrier for the elderly or people with reduced mobility. Today, thanks to compact elevators designed for small spaces, it is possible to improve accessibility in communities without overly affecting the original structure.
These elevators are designed to occupy the minimum possible space, both in surface and depth. They do not require a pit or machine room, and can be installed in spaces as small as 1 m². They are an ideal solution for communities wishing to improve accessibility without embarking on complex construction work.
Having an elevator in the community is no longer a luxury, but a necessity. Low-impact solutions such as small elevators bring multiple benefits:
In Tecnolift we work with specific equipment for communities of neighbors who have little space available. These are some of the most demanded:
Designed to be integrated into buildings without modifying load-bearing structures. Its assembly adapts to patios, stairwells or building exteriors.
They are a very useful solution in communities with several steps or unevenness between the entrance and the elevator. Their installation is fast and minimally invasive.
They allow a complete elevator to be installed on the outside of the building, without the need for an interior shaft. They are a viable alternative in buildings with no interior space available.
Installing an elevator in a community may be supported by public subsidies, as it is considered a mandatory accessibility improvement in many cases.
Since the Horizontal Property Law and the CTE (Technical Building Code), it is established that the communities must carry out the necessary reforms to guarantee access to all the neighbors. This applies especially when a resident requests it due to age or disability.
Many autonomous regions and municipalities offer specific subsidies for communities wishing to install an elevator. In Tecnolift we help you with the processing of these grants and advise you on all available options.
Although this article focuses on communities, there are also ideal solutions for private homes, villas or businesses with little space. You can consult our specialized article on small elevators for small spaces.
A compact-sized domestic elevator can even be installed in existing homes, with minimal impact and high added value for the future.
All our projects include a technical study, professional installation and a maintenance service adapted to the use of each community.
We work with equipment that is assembled in a few days, in coordination with the property manager or the president of the community to cause the least possible inconvenience.
Our maintenance contracts are adapted to each type of equipment and use. We offer periodic revisions, immediate assistance and replacement of parts with original spare parts.
There are several key aspects that should be studied before starting the work:
At Tecnolift, we believe that no building should be excluded from accessibility improvements due to lack of space. Small elevators represent a viable, modern and functional solution for all types of communities of owners.
Contact our team to study your case. We will advise you from the first technical visit to the installation and maintenance. Improving the quality of life in your community is possible with the right technology.
