Modern living is changing. More people are choosing to stay in the homes they love for longer, adapting their spaces to suit changing lifestyles, mobility needs and long-term comfort. One of the most effective ways to achieve this is by installing a home lift—and few options are as innovative and versatile as those from Stiltz

At DHG Services, homeowners have access to the full range of Stiltz home lifts, offering a practical, stylish and space-saving solution for moving between floors. Whether you are planning ahead, improving accessibility, or simply looking for a smarter way to navigate your home, Stiltz lifts provide a modern alternative to traditional stair-based solutions.

This in-depth guide explores everything you need to know about Stiltz lifts, how they work, their benefits, and why DHG Services is a trusted provider for installation and support.


What Is a Stiltz Home Lift?

A Stiltz home lift is a compact, self-supporting domestic lift designed specifically for residential use. Unlike traditional lifts that require a shaft, pit or machine room, Stiltz lifts operate using a unique rail system that allows them to travel between floors with minimal structural changes.

This makes them ideal for a wide range of properties, including:

  • Detached and semi-detached homes
  • Townhouses
  • Bungalows with loft conversions
  • Older properties with limited space

The result is a lift that is both practical and unobtrusive, fitting neatly into your home without major disruption.


Why Choose a Home Lift Instead of a Stairlift?

While stairlifts are a popular solution, they are not always the best fit for every household.

A home lift offers several advantages:

Greater Flexibility

Unlike stairlifts, which are limited to the staircase, a home lift can be positioned in different areas of the house.

Wheelchair Accessibility

Many Stiltz lifts are designed to accommodate wheelchairs, making them ideal for users with more advanced mobility needs.

Transporting Items

Home lifts can carry shopping, laundry and other items between floors with ease.

Modern Design

Stiltz lifts are designed to look sleek and contemporary, blending seamlessly into modern interiors.

Future-Proofing

A home lift is a long-term investment that adapts to changing needs over time.

How Stiltz Lifts Work

One of the most unique aspects of Stiltz lifts is their self-supporting design.

Dual Rail Technology

The lift travels on two vertical rails that support the entire structure. This eliminates the need for load-bearing walls or a lift shaft.

Plug-and-Play Operation

Most Stiltz lifts operate using a standard domestic power supply, making installation simpler and more flexible.

Through-Floor Travel

The lift moves through a cut-out in the floor, parking neatly on one level when not in use.

Quiet Motor System

The motor is located within the lift itself, ensuring quiet and efficient operation.
