The Advantages of an Inclined Stair Lift

The inclined stair lift works a bit differently than the vertical lift. While the vertical lift takes passengers to the next level by traveling up and down on a flat, vertical plane, inclined lifts are attached to a flight of stairs and travel up the staircase. They must be attached to a staircase wide enough to accommodate them and there must be enough room on the staircase for non-lift users.

Inclined stair lifts are ideal for buildings that cannot accommodate a vertical lift and are preferable to elevators because they are more affordable and take up less space. The wheelchair sits on the platform and is secured in place by a ramp plate. The user pushes a button to go up or down and the lift guides her smoothly along the staircase.

Here are some of the key benefits of inclined stair lifts:

• Provides independent and safe access to a wheelchair user within any building.
• Simple to use and can be easily operated by a wheelchair user.
• The lift platform and barrier fold neatly away against the smooth operating rail when not in use.
• Suitable for all types of curved and straight staircases.
• Completely safe for the stair lift user with barrier arms and raised ramps that protect the user that lock down before the platform moves.
