Monkton is Baltimore County's horse country, a community defined by its preserved farmland, its equestrian estates, its winding country roads, and a landscape that has changed remarkably little across generations of careful stewardship. The homes here are among the most distinctive in the region, from historic stone farmhouses and working equestrian properties to custom-built residences set deep into pastoral settings that feel genuinely apart from the modern world. For homeowners in these extraordinary properties, a residential elevator installation requires a partner with the technical expertise to work in complex older structures and the design sensitivity to honor what makes those structures irreplaceable. Taylor Made Custom Contracting has been providing exactly that since 1990.



Monkton's residential properties present some of the most technically and aesthetically complex residential elevator installation challenges Taylor Made encounters. The historic farmhouses and stone-construction properties that define much of the community's architectural identity were built using methods and materials that require careful structural assessment before any significant modification can be planned. Center-hall layouts that feel generous and welcoming but that may present specific shaft placement challenges. Multi-level floor plans that have evolved across generations of additions and modifications. Interior finishes and architectural details that must be respected and preserved throughout the installation process.
None of these challenges are insurmountable. They are simply the context that a skilled and experienced residential elevator installer works within, and Taylor Made has been working within exactly this context in properties throughout northern Baltimore County since 1990. Our approach to every Monkton installation begins with a thorough and genuinely unhurried structural assessment, followed by a system selection process that identifies the elevator technology best suited to the specific demands and constraints of the home. Every visible element of the installation is then designed to complement the home's existing aesthetic, ensuring that the finished result looks and feels as though it has always been part of the property.
For Monkton homeowners, a residential elevator installation is an investment in the full life of a property that is genuinely irreplaceable. Taylor Made brings the expertise, the sensitivity, and the commitment to quality that such an investment deserves, and we deliver every installation to a standard that the homes we work in would recognize as entirely consistent with the care they have always received.


Monkton's historic stone farmhouses and older properties require a specialized approach to residential elevator installation that accounts for the structural systems, the construction materials, and the spatial configurations of buildings that were designed and built well before residential elevators were a consideration. Taylor Made's structural knowledge and installation experience in properties of this character mean we can identify installation approaches that work within the existing structure without compromising its integrity, and deliver systems that perform reliably within the unique constraints of each individual home.
Monkton's equestrian estates and larger rural properties often include main residences with substantial square footage distributed across multiple levels, connected by staircases that have served the household for decades but that are increasingly demanding for the residents who use them. Taylor Made installs residential elevator systems in properties of this scale with the same attention to structural detail, system performance, and aesthetic integration that defines every installation we complete, delivering results that are worthy of the extraordinary properties they serve.


In a Monkton home with interior finishes of real quality and character, the visual integration of a residential elevator is as important as its technical performance. Taylor Made works closely with Monkton homeowners to design elevator cab interiors, door surrounds, and landing finishes that are entirely consistent with the home's existing aesthetic. Whether that means custom-milled wood panels matched to the home's existing millwork, period-appropriate hardware, or a contemporary cab design that contrasts intentionally with older architectural elements, we deliver an installation that belongs completely in the space it occupies.
Taylor Made was founded in 1990 by Kevin and Suzanne Taylor with a purpose that has never shifted: helping families build homes that support them through every stage of life. Working in a community like Monkton, with its extraordinary properties and its deeply invested homeowners, represents some of the most meaningful and most demanding work we do, and we bring the full depth of our expertise and our genuine appreciation for these homes to every installation we complete here.
Kevin's structural knowledge and more than 35 years of hands-on experience make him uniquely well suited to the complex installation challenges that Monkton properties present. Suzanne's design intelligence ensures that every visible element of every installation is specified and executed to the highest possible standard.
