Wheelchair platform lifts overcome barriers

Wheelchair platform lifts can help people with accessibility challenges get up and down the stairs of their home. Wheelchair platform lifts are perfect to help elderly and disabled people overcome physical barriers.

Wheelchair platform lifts can lift people anything from a few inches to about 15 feet. Wheelchair lifts are a great option because they don’t need many structural changes. They come in a variety of platform sizes, the standard being a 750-lb lifting capacity. Wheelchair platform lifts run off different driving systems – belt-driven, battery-powered belt-driven and battery-powered hydraulic.

Wheelchair platform lifts can also be used outdoors. For this purpose, they can come prepared with tinted windows and an acrylic dome for weather protection. You can also select fire-rated doors, automatic gates and doors and extra-width gates. To deter unauthorised access, remote control with a lock is available on most wheelchair platform lifts from some leading manufacturers.
