As you can see from my earlier reply there are no real elevators in The Sims 4.

The problem dear human is that we don't quite understand the mechanics of the Elevator. Does it automatically deposit a Sim outside, into another room? Does it go on the upper or lower floor (My guess would be that it goes on the top). In other words darling, we're lost on mechanics, and came her for help. So far, it is not forthcoming. Still, thank you for not ignoring all the questions so far as you have.

Just like you see in San Myshuno it leads to the lots exit point It does not matter where you place the portal (elevator) on your lot.

Well the issue is that the elevators are not functioning elevators.  I guess they are just for show. In Sims 3 there were functioning elevators but sadly Sims 4 was not geared toward building like Sims 3 was. We are stuck with regular stairs and ladders. They don’t even have spiral stairs anymore. I had hoped they would resolve by now but nope.  It would be useful to have elevators and spiral stair cases to save space and make the homes more realistic . No one is really going to use a ladder in a home. It’s not practical.  For Please, if the elevators are just for show just say that on the description. People are spending long amounts of time trying to figure it out when the elevators won’t ever work.

You can spiral stairs now. Look for the squared off arrow that looks like a bracket. Not smooth, but you can do it up to three times for a 360° staircase

You can build angled stairs but spiral stairs are still not possible.

[sweetlilpsycho]

Yes. And you can angle them 360° and substantially reduce the length of a regular staircase, which is what the last commenter was lamenting. Essentially making a squared off spiral staircase. Does it look exactly the same? No. Does it function as a 2x2 staircase instead of a 1x6? Yes.

I’m sorry but this thread is a dumpster fire of you completely missing the point ad infinitum.

@sweetlilpsycho 

The poster asked for spiral staircases like in the Sims 3. Apparently you have not played that since you think that angled stairs are the same. It isn't.

What part of my explanations on how the elevator works is it you do not understand.?
