Does an Outdoor Elevator Work in a Small House?
Often, yes. A townhouse or duplex with a free side wall or a bit of yard can take one. You keep your interior floor area. It also suits homes where several generations live together like a whole family.
Small doesn’t automatically mean suitable, though. Setbacks, property lines, structure, wall openings and local rules all count.
