Elevator Service Company installs the Symmetry Asterix, a USA-manufactured luxury residential elevator with signature LED light portal design, warm wood veneer finishes, and fully automatic operation built for high-end new construction and whole-home renovations across Connecticut, New York, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts.
Your home should feel like an experience the moment you step into it, and every floor of it. The Symmetry Asterix is the luxury home elevator Elevator Service Company installs across the Northeast for exactly that reason. A signature light halo surrounds every call button on the landing, and inside, LED lighting wraps the entire cab in warm ambient light you can dim to match your mood. Handcrafted wood, satin matte black, and a residential elevator so distinct that architects tell us it is the feature their clients bring up long after move-in.
Everything you need to evaluate the Asterix as a homeowner, architect, or builder is available to download directly from this page.
Schedule an in-home evaluation and one of ESCO’s licensed mechanics will come to your home, assess your layout, and walk you through exactly how the Asterix fits into the life you are building there. If you would rather experience the LED light portal and the warmth of the wood cab before that conversation, our Torrington, Connecticut showroom has one on display.
The estates and custom builds across the Northeast that Elevator Service Company serves were designed to be experienced, not just occupied. The Asterix belongs in that context. The LED halo greets your guests before they step in. The light portal wraps every ride in warmth they will not forget. Four wood grains, four stain options, and a satin matte black cab that makes the most of both.
When you specify the Asterix into a new construction project, you are giving your client something they will point to every time guests walk through the door. The light portal is not a feature that needs explaining. It reflects directly on the level of finish you brought to the entire project.
ESCO handles all early coordination on pit depth, shaft footprint, machine room configuration, and drive system selection. Our team is backed by Cibes Lift Group, IUEC-licensed, ASME/QEI certified, and actively installing the Asterix across Connecticut, New York, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. The design professionals who partner with ESCO consistently tell us their clients get an elevator that looks and performs exactly the way it was presented. That is the standard we have held across the Northeast for over 75 years.
The light portal is the defining sensory experience of the Asterix. When you step inside, the LED lighting wraps the entire cab interior in warm ambient illumination, surrounding you on all sides rather than lighting from above the way a traditional residential elevator does. The effect is distinct enough that first-time riders consistently comment on it. From outside the cab, the light halo around each call button signals the experience before you even board. A dimmer control inside the cab lets you adjust the intensity to match the time of day or your mood. Elevator Service Company walks homeowners through the full experience during the evaluation so expectations match reality before any commitment is made.
The Asterix has a defined aesthetic, warm wood against satin matte black, that provides a strong visual foundation regardless of which finish you choose. Within that framework, you select from four wood grain options, Maple, Walnut, Cherry, or White Oak, and four stain choices that affect the depth and tone of the wood. The cab arrives without flooring so you can match or contrast with your existing interior. Landing doors can be sourced independently to blend with your home’s millwork, or you can choose from ESCO’s coordinated sliding door packages in beige, black, or brushed stainless steel. Elevator Service Company walks through every selection during the evaluation to make sure the finished result feels cohesive with the home.
Both are USA-manufactured luxury residential elevators with identical performance specs, the same drive options, and the same ASME A17.1 compliance. The difference is entirely aesthetic and experiential. The Symmetry Dream is built around customization: 13 illuminated panel options, a wide range of finish decisions, and the Dream+ ceiling upgrade. The Asterix is built around a signature experience: the LED light portal and halo are the defining feature, and the design language is more defined. Buyers who want to make every detail decision tend toward the Dream. Buyers who want to step into something already remarkable tend toward the Asterix. Elevator Service Company can walk you through both during the evaluation.
The structural requirements for the Asterix, including the minimum 6-inch pit, drive system selection, and jurisdiction-dependent machine room configuration, should be addressed during the design phase rather than at framing. What is particularly important for the Asterix in new construction is finish coordination: wood grain, stain choice, and landing door specification all benefit from being locked in before interior trim and millwork decisions are finalized so the elevator reads as part of the original design intent. Elevator Service Company provides architects and builders cut sheet and specification support for the Asterix and coordinates directly with the project team from design through final inspection across Connecticut, New York, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts.
Elevator Service Company provides preventative maintenance plans for every elevator we install, including the Symmetry Asterix. The LED lighting system and smart dimmer controls are serviced by our mechanics as part of regular maintenance visits, and we carry access to Cibes Lift Group’s parts network to support every component over the system’s full service life. If something requires attention or repairs between scheduled visits, our team is a direct phone call away. The homeowners across the Northeast who have had ESCO maintain their equipment long-term consistently tell us that having the same team who installed the elevator also service it makes a measurable difference in how quickly issues get resolved.
