Incline elevator

An incline elevator is an elevator that runs in a direction diagonal to the ground. Unlike a standard elevator, incline elevators can go up tilted grades. Incline elevators are also known as incline platform lifts or hillside trams and can be used for residential and commercial purposes. They are sometimes colloquially referred to as or confused with funiculars. The purpose of incline elevators is to provide accessibility to steep hillsides and inclines at minimal effort to the user.
