A lift for your lifestyle

When you decide to buy a Cibes Air, you should always let the use of the lift guide your choices. For example, if your lift only needs to bring you everyday comfort, you can choose a very small platform size. But if the lift must accommodate a wheelchair, you should go for a bigger size. We also offer you a wide range of options and accessories to ensure that your lift is customizable to your specific needs and taste.

Intuitive and innovative lift design Cibes Air

Unique user experience

Like for all platform lifts, the lift controls inside the lift car operate with hold-to-run. What makes the Cibes Air unique resides in its innovative and intuitive design, exploring your natural instinct to grab and hold on to the handrail. Just grab the handle to travel and release it to stop.

This elevator model has a rated load of 600-880 lbs (3-5 passengers) and travels at a speed of max 30 FPM.

Due to regulations, platform lifts have a limited speed, but this limitation actually opens other great possibilities. For example, the Cibes Air does not need the big and bulky shaft structures that high-speed lifts require to cope with the forces. Our space-saving, prefabricated lift shaft in steel or glazed panels is enough.

The standard equipment of the Cibes Air includes features such as:

  • Ready-made lift shaft in steel panels (glazing is optional)
  • Panoramic doors with tempered and laminated safety glass and concealed door closers
  • Innovative handrail with integrated floor buttons
  • Emergency telephone, emergency stop and alarm button with a unique design

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How much do home elevators cost?

    The price of home elevators can vary greatly and could be anywhere from $18,000, to more than $100,000. There are so many details to a home elevator to account for; number of levels, car configuration and elevator size, car interior, car gate/door systems, metal finishes, hoistway doors and more. You will want to work with an authorized Cibes Symmetry dealer to answer that question more precisely.

  • Do elevators add value to a home?

    Absolutely, lifts/elevators are known to be a smart home investment, given that they can increase your property value and make your home more appealing to a larger pool of buyers or tenants. The increase in property value varies depending on the type of lift. Typical accessibility lifts like stairlifts or chair lifts don’t add real estate value like vertical platform lifts or cabin lifts do.
    Setting aside monetary value, a home lift can bring much value to your home living and comfort. Lifts can help you with everyday chores and make your home a safer, more comfortable place for everyone you love.
  • How do I choose a home elevator?

    You should choose a home elevator that fits your needs and your home. Your elevator choice varies depending on a wide range of factors. We offer a range of home elevator products to future-proof your home and enhance your comfort. Choosing a lift will depend on your style preferences, accessibility needs and available space.

  • How do I clean my elevator?

    The type of cleaning agents used to clean residential lifts and elevators is important and should be included in the manufacturer’s operating manual. Here is an overview:
    1. Start by dusting all surfaces in the elevator to avoid dirt and dust accumulation.
    2. Use furniture cleaning solutions to clean and polish wood panels and accessories.
    3. Disinfect the buttons on hall calls, car operating panels, handrails, and gate handles often. When doing this, make sure you use the proper cleaning agent. We explained this further in the blog.
    4. Clean mirrored surfaces and glass panels with standard glass cleaners.
    5. Vacuum and shampoo carpeting and rugs as you would any high-traffic area.
    6. Cleaning the elevator doors is an important part of cleaning your lift. Obstructions in the door can cause performance issues. Clean up any spills or mess around elevator doors promptly, and routinely check that door pathways are clear of debris.
  • How much space do you need for an elevator?

    How much space you need for an elevator depends on the type of elevator and elevator size you choose.

    If you have 11 ft² to spare, you have enough room to fit a lift in your house. Our smallest elevator model has a 24 x 33” platform size (WxD) and a minimum cut-out size of 40 x 40”. It will literally fit into the space of a wardrobe.

    On the other side of the spectrum, our largest goods elevator has a platform size of 56 x 98” (WxD) and a cut-out size of 75 x 103”. A large elevator like that requires 54 ft² but is also large enough to transport a pallet truck loaded with pallets or 8-10 people.
