Accessibility is a human right

According to the United Nations accessibility is a human right. Their vision is a world where persons with disabilities have access to all kinds of environments and aspects of life. We believe that our wheelchair lifts can help that vision come true.

finding the right wheelchair lift

Identifying your needs and deciding what kind of lift you want are the first steps to finding the right wheelchair lift. Below, we have shortlisted some of the most important points you need to consider.

how big is your wheelchair?

Most manual wheelchairs are 27 – 32 inches wide and 43-48 inches long, but you should always measure. Measure the width (including wheels) and length (including footrest).

what kind of lift do you want?

From 2-6 stops, a platform lift or a cabin lift, great choices that will increase the real estate value of your home.

what lift size do you need?

The right lift size is the size to adapt to your needs.

where do you want the doors?

Doors can be placed on the same side of the shaft, on opposite sides or at an 90° angle. For home elevators, we recommend a door clear opening width of 31.50 inches mm for public lifts, 35.43 inches.

how much space do you need?

You will need a free floor space of at least 60 x 60 inches. The best solution is to measure the space you need to turn the wheelchair.

what options do you want?

Power door openers and remote elbow buttons make calling and accessing the elevator much easier. Voice announcement, level indicators or a lap-held remote control are other useful options.
