Villa Lift in Siri Fort, Delhi

Yes, and villa lift retrofits are a large part of what we do in Siri Fort, because most institutional buildings and apartments here were built before lifts were standard. The engineer checks load-bearing capacity, available shaft space and headroom, then proposes a configuration that fits - for a Villa Lift that often means a compact or pitless build.

For two to four stops in the institutional buildings and apartments common around Siri Fort, hydraulic is usually the better fit: no machine room, lower headroom and a very smooth ride. Above four stops, or where running cost matters more, a gearless traction MRL wins. The engineer recommends one after seeing the building.

A compact Rieka unit fits a shaft from about 900×900 mm — roughly the footprint of a stairwell landing. Many Siri Fort owners place it in an existing stairwell void or a corner of the courtyard. The engineer confirms what is workable in your specific institutional buildings and apartments before quoting.

Call Rieka and an engineer schedules a Siri Fort site visit, usually within 48 hours. The visit is free. You receive a written Villa Lift proposal with itemised pricing - machine, structure, doors, civil guidance, installation and optional AMC - so nothing appears later as an extra.

Every Rieka Villa Lift in Siri Fort ships with an ARD - Automatic Rescue Device - as standard, not as a paid extra. On power failure the villa lift moves to the nearest landing on battery and opens the doors. Given the supply pattern in parts of South Delhi, we treat this as non-negotiable.
