The Cibes Primo Elevator / VPL
A design-forward vertical platform lift built for Florida’s restaurants, hotels, and commercial spaces—installed in as little as 2 to 3 days.
A Commercial Platform Lift That Looks the Part
The Cibes Primo elevator is a vertical platform lift engineered specifically for commercial environments where aesthetics, reliability, and ADA compliance all need to land in the same product.
Where most commercial lifts are purely functional, the Primo brings genuine design intent and a clean finish that integrates naturally into bars, restaurants, boutique hotels, retail spaces, and public buildings. It runs on a screw-drive system, travels up to 3 meters (approximately 10 feet), supports 2 stops, and carries up to 400 kg (approximately 880 lbs). Its self-supporting structure requires no separate shaft construction, and a typical Primo installation is complete in 2 to 3 days with minimal disruption to your business.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of businesses is the Cibes Primo designed for?
The Primo is designed for commercial environments where design and compliance both matter—restaurants, bars, boutique hotels, retail spaces, churches, and public facilities. Its glazed shaft option and clean profile make it particularly well-suited for hospitality and customer-facing commercial settings across Florida.
Does the Cibes Primo elevator require a pit or shaft?
No. The Primo is a self-supporting lift that requires no separate shaft construction. It installs through a floor cut-out with minimal structural preparation, making it one of the least disruptive commercial platform lift installations available.
What are the Cibes Primo specs and available CAD drawings?
The Primo carries up to 880 lbs, travels up to approximately 10 feet, supports 2 stops, and runs on a screw-drive system. It’s rated for indoor and outdoor use. Full Cibes Primo specs and CAD drawings are available in the downloads section above.
Can the Cibes Primo be installed outdoors?
Yes. The Cibes Primo is an outdoor lift with proper ratings, making it a strong option for Florida’s coastal commercial properties where exterior access between levels is needed—decks, patios, marina facilities, and outdoor hospitality venues.
Is the Cibes Primo hold-to-run?
The Cibes Primo operates on a hold-to-run system on the platform, meaning the button must be held during travel. On landings, it operates with a single touch. This is standard for this class of lift and meets all applicable safety requirements under EN 81-41.
