A Trusted, Space-Saving Residential Elevator for Flexible Home Installation
The Eclipse by Savaria is one of the best-selling home elevators we install in Virginia and North Carolina homes. Built for indoor residential use, this elevator is ideal for homeowners who need a compact, code-compliant solution that does not compromise on comfort or performance.
If you are planning a new home elevator addition or a retrofit of an existing one, the Eclipse is a proven option for up to six stops and 60 feet of vertical travel, all while maintaining a quiet, stable ride.
Key Benefits of the Savaria Eclipse
No Machine Room Required
The Eclipse features a unique machine room-less (MRL) design. Most mechanical components fit neatly into a closet or the elevator shaft itself.
MRL elevators means easier planning, quicker installation, and more usable space in your home.
Geared Chain Drive for Smooth Operation
The eclipse operates on a geared chain drive system engineered for long-term durability and ease of use. Paired with a variable frequency motor the Eclipse delivers a consistent, stable ride with fewer moving parts than traditional cable elevators.
Flexible Entry Configurations
The Eclipse can be configured for same-side, opposite, or 90-degree entry and exit, making it easy to adapt the elevator to your home’s layout.
Streamlined Maintenance Access
A convenient service panel allows easy technician access—whether it’s located inside or outside the shaft.
