Vertechs Elevator Systems

About Vertechs

Vertechs came into existence in 1996 as a result of the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) guideline directing all public buildings to be made accessible to everyone. During this time only two types of elevators existed: residential lifts and full size commercial elevators. The residential lift was limited to 12 sq. ft. making it too small for wheelchair use. The commercial elevator had plenty of room for a wheelchair but its high cost was viewed as an unacceptable financial expense for small public buildings such as schools, churches, libraries, office buildings, medical buildings etcetera. These reasons precipitated the development of a new elevator class, the LULA system (Limited Use /Limited Application) and with it Vertechs Industries Inc. was born.

After years of success with the Vertechs LULA we turned our attention to the needs of the Home Elevator market. At the time, the market only offered what is known today as a Residential Lift (Systems not recognized as true elevators for their lack of proper elevator doors and elevator safety systems). These units covered the basic needs of the consumer but didn’t fulfill the level of safety and practicality the public was looking for. The need for a True Home Elevator was inevitable and inspired us to engineer the Vertechs Veu.

The Veu represented the first major change in the Home elevator industry in more than 50 years by combining the safety and convenience of a commercial elevator with the beauty and elegance of a residential system.

Since then Vertechs has grown to become the leading supplier of Home and LULA Elevator systems by setting higher industry standards and providing reliable, affordable and safe elevator systems.

Vertechs Elevator Systems is a privately-held North American company with its head office located in Ontario, Canada.
