Elevator building in sims4 xbox one x

Hello everyone

I'm building restaurants and diners in the sims4 but I'm always running out of room for stairs and such and I have the download for city living but the elevators don't show in build mode  outside the city penthouses and such 

Is there a way to get a working elevator in any other map ? Other then the * penthouses ? If there is a way to have *working* elevators there can someone explain me how ? Since I searched Google alot and only shows not working ones .. wich is stupid.. 

I hope someone knows how to 

Thanks in advance !

  • No unfortunately you can't use elevators in builds other than where penthouse lots are 

  • That's what I don't understand a house is the same as a penthouse only a different location , should be available anywhere , it's normal in real life that elevators are anywhere you go , not only in the one city 😅😅

    EA pleasse make them available anywhere 

  • UPDATED ANSWER:

    Just go to your top left home button "Venue Info"

    Change your lot from "residential" or whatever the current lot is

    "residential" changed to "generic" lot

    This change, will now open a new folder in your "Objects by Function"

    Scroll all the way down to the new folder "Generic Items"

    This is where you'll find the elevators in ANY world you choose, just change the lot

    HOPE THIS HELPS!
