The four-figure price doesn't surprise me, when I replaced the crossfeed screw on my lathe I looked into buying acme rod and the prices were horrendous, no McMaster option here. Making a nut for whatever pitch you can find would not be difficult.
I came across an old bloke a few years ago who had installed an elevator in his house for his disabled wife, he had used the mast from a forklift. I thought at the time it was a good option with a good weight capacity, needs a hydraulic power pack though.
