A Luxury Home Elevator With a Signature Look Built In

The Asterix buyer isn’t looking to coordinate every interior finish decision. They want to step into something that already has a point of view. HomeLift installs the Symmetry Asterix across Tennessee and Alabama for homeowners finishing luxury homes where the elevator needs to make an impression, not just move between floors. Warm wood veneer, satin matte black panels, and an LED light portal that surrounds every ride in ambient light come standard. Four wood species across four stain options let you dial in the cab’s tone without designing the interior from scratch.

Your Asterix Installation Starts With a Conversation

The Asterix has a defined aesthetic, but wood grain, stain choice, and landing door coordination are easier to get right before the surrounding millwork and trim decisions are locked. Tell us where you are in the project, and we’ll set up a time to walk through your options.

A Custom Elevator Cab With Signature LED Lighting

When we install the Asterix, the cab interior follows a specific design language: wood veneer on the machinery wall and the wall opposite the entrance, satin matte black on the back wall and ceiling, and an LED light portal that wraps the entire interior in warm ambient light. That combination is what makes the Asterix immediately recognizable. Within it, four wood grain options across four stain choices let you coordinate the cab’s tone with the rooms it opens into without starting the interior design conversation from a blank page.

The LED light portal isn’t a panel or an accent fixture. It’s a full surround of warm ambient light inside the cab that passengers are enveloped in on every trip. A dimmer control lets you adjust the intensity to match the time of day or the setting. On each landing, the call button carries an LED light halo that signals the experience before the doors open. Both are standard on every Asterix we install, not add-on lighting packages.

Installed by the Team That Knows the Asterix

HomeLift’s technicians are factory-trained by Cibes Symmetry and on our direct payroll. Every Asterix home elevator we install across Tennessee and Alabama is handled by the same crew from the first site visit through final inspection, with no handoffs and no subcontractors. We’ve been a NAEC-affiliated elevator company in this region since 1986, and that continuity carries through to service after the install is complete.

  • Trained Directly by Cibes Symmetry on the Asterix System

    Factory training from Cibes Symmetry covers more than the mechanical platform. It covers the LED portal wiring, lighting calibration, and cab interior installation that make the Asterix what it is. The technicians who install your system arrive knowing it, and they stay your service contact once the job is done.

  • Service Coverage That Keeps the Asterix Running Right

    HomeLift offers two post-installation service plans for every Symmetry elevator we install. The Gold Service Contract covers parts and labor, including door operators, push buttons, batteries, and circuit boards, with three annual service calls and a four-business-day response guarantee. The Silver Service Contract covers labor only with the same visit structure. Both plans keep your Asterix on a consistent maintenance schedule with the same technicians who installed it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The Asterix’s 1,000 lb capacity, automatic controls, and access across up to six stops make it a dependable long-term solution for multi-story homes. For homeowners planning ahead, the Asterix delivers full-floor accessibility inside a cab that’s designed to feel residential, not clinical, which matters when the elevator needs to serve daily convenience and long-term mobility in the same home.

The Asterix is HomeLift’s Designer Home Elevator Cab Package, built as a step above the standard flat cab. It comes standard with warm wood veneer walls, satin matte black panels, and a hardwired LED light portal that gives the cab a signature look you won’t find on a builder-grade install.

HomeLift can supply 2-panel or 3-panel sliding landing doors in beige, black, or brushed stainless steel, or you can source your own to match your home’s existing millwork and trim. Either way, door selection is part of the process when you configure your Asterix package.
