Enclosed Vertical Platform LiftsProbably the simplest lift to explain, as it looks and operates in much the same way as a standard commercial passenger lift. There are, however, several key differences between our enclosed vertical platform lifts and the lift you might find in a hotel lobby, for example.

• They are designed to accommodate a wide range of access requirements.
• They are designed for travelling relatively short distances (typically around 9 metres), whereas a traditional commercial lift could be required to travel dozens of floors.
• The lift platform travels within its own fully enclosed structure, securely fixed to a wall or floor level, removing the need for costly building works and provision of a lift shaft. This makes our disabled platform lift a viable option for domestic or small commercial business use.
• Speed and capacity are typically lower than traditional commercial passenger lifts. In commercial applications however, heavy duty lifts can increase capacity and be a handy way of transporting stock or equipment between floors
• Unlike your typical lift, all our UK models come with a wide range of customisation options, enabling you to tailor the enclosure and colours to complement the surroundings and best serve the lift’s users.
• Every lift is robust, safe and easy to use. They are compliant to the relevant European standard EN81-41

Whether in the home, the office or a retail store, the practical realities of a property’s design or location can sometimes make it difficult to create accessibility for everyone. Ramps, for example, are a simple solution for those who can’t manage stairs, but they frequently take space that simply isn’t available.
It’s in these situations that our unenclosed domestic or commercial platform lifts come into their own. Compact and unobtrusive, these lifts can sit beside stairs (so there’s no disruption to other stair users). And if you only need a wheelchair platform lift for occasional use, consider our portable model, which provides simple, temporary wheelchair access.

You may well be familiar with the traditional stairlift, which involves sitting on a seat which travels up or downstairs along a track.  Our wheelchair lifts for stairs operate on much the same principle, but instead of (or in addition to) a seat, the stairlift incorporates a platform which can accommodate a wheelchair.
That means there’s no need for a wheelchair user to transfer to another seat to travel upstairs, which cuts risk and inconvenience. A commercial wheelchair stairlift maintains the wheelchair user’s independence. And it ensures that, in spaces where lifts may be impractical, your premises remain disability friendly and compliant.

The platform stairlift for straight staircasesThe Delta platform lift is the perfect solution to make straight indoor and outdoor staircases accessible for the wheelchair driver. The smooth transport of electrically powered wheelchairs is guaranteed by a loading capacity of 300 kg.Thanks to the aesthetic and user friendly design, this lift fits into any environment and will improve the users independence and quality of life.The robust construction ensures a long working life and a reliable performance. Confirming to the highest safety and quality standards, the Delta is an inexpensive way to manage staircases in a pleasant way. Due to the extremely slim and compact design the platform occupies only a minimum of space, keeping the staircase free of obstruction.

The platform stairlift for curved staircasesThe OMEGA platform lift gives wheelchair users or mobility impaired persons the possibility to overcome staircases or steep ramps without the assistance of an attendant. It is designed for access over stairs with multiple levels, curves or intermediate landings. As an alternative to an elevator or a vertical platform lift, the Omega requires no structural changes to the staircase.When the platform is folded, the OMEGA is the narrowest stairlift on the market, leaving maximum clearance on the staircase! Because of the compact construction, the installation is possible at almost all staircases. Indoors or outdoors, the lift gently integrates into every surrounding area. Whether for private or public uses, straight or curved staircases, the Omega is a synonym for mobility and quality of life.
