Oakland metro
In Berkeley, we see three common residential paths: compact hydraulic or traction home elevators in a dedicated shaft, machine-room-less units for new construction, and platform lifts where space is tight.
Typical cab finishes include wood veneers, stone-look panels, brushed or bronze metal, glass and warm LED lighting, all within the car's rated load.
Seasonal swings, rain and humidity make pit drainage and corrosion checks part of routine maintenance.
