A full-size passenger lift with manual doors usually has lower upkeep compared to one with automatic doors. On average, manual lift door maintenance costs or manual elevator maintenance costs for residential lifts in India range between ₹20,000 and ₹30,000 per year, depending on the location and service provider. This cost mainly covers routine safety checks and servicing of the electric lifting system, not just the doors, making manual door lifts a simpler and more budget-friendly option for homeowners.
