The latest home vertical mobility innovation from Otis supports safe, stylish and accessible living KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Feb. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Demand for affordable, high quality home lifts is increasing[1] – driven by increased urbanisation, the rise of luxury housing and smart homes, and the growing need for enhanced accessibility and mobility solutions as populations age and prefer to live independently in their own homes.

New Otis Gen3TM Villa Homelift The compact design of the Otis Gen3 Villa homelift simplifies installation and takes up little space in the home – for example, it only needs a pit depth of either 30cm or 50cm, depending on local regulatory requirements.
