In recent years, the installation of homelift elevator systems and indoor mini elevators has become no longer strange to households in Vietnam. Because the elevator not only makes moving between floors in the house more convenient and faster, but it also brings luxurious and classy aesthetic value to the house. So there are many customers who are very interested and learning about home elevators. So, we invite you to join Hoang Sa Viet Nidec Sankyo Elevator to find out all the information about the product!

Four (#4) advantages of home elevators

Hoang Sa Viet Sankyo Elevator would like to highlight 4 outstanding advantages of the family elevator line listed below:

  1. Space saving: Family elevators are a product line that focuses on compact design. Family elevators, also known as homelift elevators, have a different elevator structure and transmission system than passenger elevators to optimize construction area. Installation size is less than 1m2 - PIT hole is about (980mm*980mm)
  2. Saving electricity: Due to its compact size, low load, and use of a small motor, it will save electrical energy (Motor about 4.5KW). The average electricity cost is about 500,000 VND/month
  3. High aesthetics, feng shui: The home elevator is also a symbol of luxury, that's why people focus on symbolic design , high aesthetics or according to feng shui , personalization... Some types of elevators are made of glass, gold-plated stainless steel doors, decorated with LED lights with highly symbolic patterns and colors..
  4. Supporting the elderly to move: In families with elderly people, climbing stairs every day will affect bones and joints. So some families have to arrange the elderly on the ground floor. However, the usable area is limited, so there are also inadequacies in design and construction. Currently, previously built houses have 3 floors or more , the need for renovation to install elevators is huge... In order to prevent the health of the elderly when traveling between floors...

Quote for installing a Family Elevator according to production technology

To easily compare and quote home elevator installation prices , Hoang Sa Viet Sankyo Elevator would like to create a price comparison table of home elevators classified by manufacturing technology . This price is for reference only so that you can understand the price range and choose a suitable product with appropriate manufacturing technology. This price comparison table is based on the assumption that elevator types have some characteristics of similar origin (place of production) compared based on market prices at the average market level. To know the exact price, origin, and specifications of each type, please call Hotline : 0707.025.789 for more detailed advice. This price list assumes the number of stops is #05 stops . Hydraulic technology alone can only reach a maximum height of 12m, so the maximum number of stops is #4 Stop. If the number of stops is less, the price will decrease by about 5% per stop (Installation cost per stop increases by 20-50 million VND ).

Conclusion: If elevator brands are similar in origin ( eg European origin), place of production, function, materials ... then the screw elevator has the highest price . Cable pulling technology is a traditional and long-standing elevator manufacturing technology, so it will have the cheapest price. Then there is hydraulic technology. However, hydraulic elevator technology will only be suitable for some projects with low height and a limited number of stops. So, what advantages will screw technology have the highest price? Please refer to the bottom of this article for more information...

Compare home elevator installation costs by origin & brand

To easily compare the cost of installing a home elevator based on product origin and brand, we first need to find out what origin is? What is the brand?

Origin: Where is the product manufactured, where is the elevator manufactured? Domestically produced or imported elevators? So origin tells us where the elevator was produced. To point out this difference, in the elevator market people use two names to distinguish the origin of the product:

  • Joint venture elevator (in Vietnam, it is understood as an elevator manufactured and assembled in Vietnam by a domestic enterprise that purchases production technology from another country such as: America, Japan, China, Korea, Thailand). Lan, Malaysia... Purchase components, transfer technology and assemble in Vietnam to save shipping costs.
  • Imported elevators, designated as products imported from abroad and brought directly to the customer's construction site.

Brand: To indicate the company that researches and produces it, some famous elevator brands in the world such as: Mishibishi, Toshiba, Nidec Elevator, Schindler... So the cost of an elevator depends greatly on the brand that produces them. The more famous the brand, the higher the price...

So below is a reference price list of 3 elevator product lines classified by origin and brand . This price comparison table is based on the assumption that elevator types have some similar features in terms of function and materials. Compare at the average market price.

Elevator price comparison table by origin & brand

Payload Joint venture elevator (5 stops) Imported elevator (5 stops) Elevators of famous brands (5 stops)
200kg From (280-450) million VND About 350 million VND From (580-950) million VND
350kg From (320-500) million VND About 450 million VND From (620-1000) million VND
450kg From (360-520) million VND About 550 million VND From (700-1000) million VND
630kg From (380-550) million VND About 650 million VND From (800-1100) million VND

Conclusion: With the same manufacturing technology, same functions, and same type of materials, elevators from world-famous brands such as Mishibishi, Toshiba, Nidec Elevator, Schindler... will have the highest price. Because they are imported into Vietnam from famous brands in the world. Accordingly, joint venture elevators (assembled in Vietnam) will have the cheapest price. Accordingly, imported elevators will cost about 30% more than elevators assembled by domestic joint ventures...

Hydraulic elevator imported in its entirety from Malaysia
Completely imported hydraulic elevator

When talking about price. Imported elevators cost about 30-50% more , so many people mistakenly believe that imported elevators are better quality than domestically produced joint venture elevators. This is also not entirely true. Because the quality of the elevator depends on the reputation of the brand that produces it, not that they are imported to Vietnam.

It is true that usually imported elevators will have higher quality from a certain perspective. The reason importers have to spend a lot of money on shipping, taxes... Therefore, very few importers will choose poor quality products to distribute to Vietnam. So to talk about the quality comparison between imported elevators and joint venture elevators, Hoang Sa Viet Sankyo Elevator will dedicate a separate section below to analyze this to help customers be clearer...

2. Size of home elevator according to traditional technology

Currently, the ratio of useful size (cabin size) to elevator pit size will depend on production technology. The larger this ratio, the higher the ability to optimize space. Normally, the size of the cabin (staircase) is only about 60-70% of the clearance size of the Pit. Today, home elevator manufacturing technology has reached a high level. So it is possible to optimize the cabin area up to 90% / total elevator pit area.

In addition, the current elevator system is also divided into two types: home elevators with machine rooms and home elevators without machine rooms . The elevator machine room is also known as the technical room, which is the area where control cabinets, tractors or speed controllers are installed and arranged. Depending on the type of elevator, the most suitable location for the machine room will be determined. Below is a standard table of cabin sizes/hoist pit sizes according to traditional standards. Classified into 2 types with or without machine room as follows:
