Mobility Lifts

How Does a Mobility Lift Work?

Mobility lifts are motorized platforms that safely and comfortably transfer individuals in wheelchairs from one level to another (or between surfaces with varying heights). Both indoor and outdoor models are available. These devices include:

Platform

Lifting Mechanism

Controls

Mobility lifts come with a sturdy platform that comfortably accommodates the user and their mobility devices (up to 750 pounds). They include rails and/or walls and some models can be fitted with a secure seat.

Depending on the lift type, a motorized mechanism raises or lowers the platform vertically or along an inclined track.

The lift can be operated by a handheld remote or a control panel on the platform itself, making it easy for users to operate.

Enhanced Mobility

With a mobility lift, wheelchair users don’t need assistance when they want to go up or down to another level of the home. It’s a level of mobility that fosters a sense of self-reliance and dignity.

Vertical Platform Lifts

These lifts provide straight up-and-down movement between levels, just like an elevator. They come with a spacious platform and can accommodate wheelchairs, scooters, or walkers.

Inclined Platform Lifts

These lifts travel along an inclined track, designed for navigating staircases with minimal modifications to your existing staircase.

Overhead Lifts

Mounted on the ceiling, overhead lifts traverse along a track, offering a wider range of movement within a single level. They are often used for transfers between beds, chairs, bathtubs, pools, and other surfaces.
