Home / Residential Elevators
Compact, quiet home lifts for villas, houses and apartments across Qatar — built to fit the home you already have, and maintained by a Doha-based team.
Why Choose Our Home Elevators?
A home lift has to fit a house that is already built or already designed. IET installs residential lifts across Qatar for villas, houses and apartments, typically serving two to five floors, running in compact shafts with shallow pits and low headroom.
Where there is no shaft at all, a self-supporting structure goes into a stairwell void or against an external wall — the survey confirms what the home can give before we quote. Rather than force the house to accept a lift that does not fit, we tailor the lift to the space available.
Every lift is delivered to recognised safety standards, with door sensors and an emergency phone as standard, and our Doha team surveys, installs and maintains it.

FAQs
Do I need a ready-made shaft for a home lift?
Not necessarily. Our lifts run in compact shafts with shallow pits, and where there is no shaft we install a self-supporting structure in a stairwell void or against an external wall. The survey confirms what your home allows.
Is a home lift safe in a power cut?
Models fitted with safe-descent bring the car to the nearest floor and open the doors when the power fails. We confirm this feature for the chosen model in the specification.
How much space does a home lift need?
Less than most people expect, thanks to the shallow pit and low headroom. The survey sets the exact dimensions, but most homes take a lift without major rebuilding.
Is it quiet enough near bedrooms?
Yes. Our traction and screw systems run quietly enough to sit beside a bedroom wall, which we factor into the model choice and shaft position.
