For many families in Riyadh, Dammam, or Jeddah, the idea of installing a residential elevator has long felt like a luxury reserved for villas with endless budgets. "We need it, but can we afford it?" That's the question Lina Al-Mansoori, a mother of two in Riyadh, found herself asking last year when her elderly parents moved in. With a 4-story home and her father's mobility worsening by the month, the stairs had become more than an inconvenience—they were a barrier to family life. But what if we told you that a residential elevator could be both budget-friendly and kind to the planet? At Coloria, we've spent decades reimagining what "affordable" and "sustainable" mean for families across Saudi Arabia and beyond. As a one-stop architectural solution provider, we don't just sell elevators; we craft solutions that fit your home, your budget, and your values.
Let's start with the obvious: homes are getting taller, and families are getting more multigenerational. In Saudi Arabia, where 68% of households include three or more generations (according to 2024 stats from the General Authority for Statistics), the need for accessible living spaces isn't just about comfort—it's about keeping families together. A residential elevator isn't just a convenience; it's a way to let grandma join the family dinner on the rooftop terrace, or let your teenager safely bring their bike up to their room without denting the walls.
But traditional elevators come with sticker shock. Many suppliers charge exorbitant fees for installation, use energy-guzzling motors, and lock you into pricey maintenance contracts. That's where Coloria steps in. As a saudi arabia building materials supplier with deep roots in the region, we understand the local market's needs: quality that lasts, prices that make sense, and solutions that align with Saudi's 2030 Vision—especially its goals for sustainable living and (local employment). Our residential elevators are designed to flip the script: affordable upfront costs, low energy bills, and a focus on green materials that reduce your carbon footprint.
It's simple: we don't see elevators as standalone products. We see them as part of your home's bigger story—one that includes your walls, your flooring, your furniture, and your family's future. Here's how we deliver on both affordability and sustainability:
| Feature | Standard Residential Elevators | Coloria Residential Elevators |
|---|---|---|
| Energy consumption (per year) | ~2,500 kWh | ~1,750 kWh (saves ~SAR 300/year on electricity) |
| Installation time | 8-12 weeks | 2-3 weeks (local Saudi team) |
| Materials | Mostly virgin plastic, steel, and synthetic fabrics | Recycled metals, bamboo charcoal panels, low-VOC paints |
| Customization options | 3-5 cabin finishes | Unlimited (matches your home's existing decor via whole-house customization) |
| Warranty | 1-2 years | 5 years (parts + labor, serviced locally) |
When the Al-Hassan family in Dammam decided to install an elevator, they had two priorities: keeping costs under SAR 60,000 and ensuring it wouldn't disrupt their Ramadan plans. "We called three companies before Coloria," says Mr. Al-Hassan, a civil engineer. "One quoted us SAR 85,000 and said installation would take 3 months—right through Ramadan. Coloria came in at SAR 52,000, finished in 18 days, and even adjusted the cabin to match our wood grain flooring. Now my 80-year-old mother can visit the rooftop garden daily, and my kids race to press the 'lift button'—it's become part of our family routine."
Here's the best part: choosing Coloria for your elevator means you're already plugged into our network of 14 product lines. Need new flooring to go with your elevator? We've got sustainable options like WPC flooring (waterproof, scratch-resistant, and made from recycled plastic and wood fibers). Want to upgrade your kitchen while you're at it? Our custom furniture team can design cabinets that perfectly complement your elevator's aesthetic. It's the power of one-stop shopping—no more coordinating with 10 different suppliers.
And we're not stopping there. As part of our commitment to Saudi's 2030 Vision, we're investing in a new manufacturing facility in Jeddah that will produce 50% of our elevator components locally by 2026. That means even more jobs for Saudi workers, faster lead times, and a smaller carbon footprint (no more shipping parts from Asia!). It's our way of saying: we're not just here to supply materials—we're here to build a better future for this country.
Ready to make your home more accessible, affordable, and sustainable? Let's start the conversation. Whether you're in Riyadh, Jeddah, or beyond, Coloria is here to turn your vision into reality—one elevator, one home, one family at a time.
At the end of the day, we measure our success not by how many elevators we sell, but by how many families we help. When Fatima in Jeddah can now join her grandchildren for afternoon tea on the third floor, or when the Al-Mansoori family no longer worries about moving their parents into a care home—those are the moments that matter. Because a home isn't just walls and a roof; it's the people in it, and how easily they can be together.
So if you've been putting off that elevator because you thought it was too expensive, or too "not green," think again. Coloria isn't just a building materials supplier—we're your partner in creating a home that works for you, today and tomorrow. Let's build something amazing together.
