About VENIT Homelift
VENIT Homelift is a brand of Versio GmbH based in Cologne and manufactures shaftless, barrier-free residential elevators for private clients, architects and construction managers. The homelifts reach up to six floors, are assembled from two filigree rails and do not require their own shaft, saving raw materials, energy and costs. Value creation takes place through in-house production in Germany: design, electronics development, machining of components and final assembly. Manufactured in high-quality steel with numerous individual customization options. The technology includes certified safety technology, obstacle sensors and an integrated battery for operation during power outages. Installation on site takes place within 6 to 8 working days. The company traces its tradition back to the elevator and machine factory L. Hopmann founded in Cologne in 1883.
