Also known as wheelchair lifts or vertical platform lifts (VPLs), platform lifts are motorized devices that raise or lower a person in a wheelchair (or standing) between levels. They’re ideal for overcoming small elevation changes, like porches, decks, garages, or stage platforms, without needing a complete elevator system.
We offer both vertical and inclined platform lifts, as well as enclosed, unenclosed, and hybrid units. These lifts are fully ADA-compliant, safe for year-round outdoor use, and customizable to match your home or business’s appearance.

Regular maintenance keeps your stairlift in optimal condition, prevents unexpected breakdowns, ensures user safety, and extends the equipment’s lifespan.
Stairlifts should generally be serviced at least once a year. However, depending on the model, usage, and manufacturer’s recommendations, more frequent maintenance may be required.
Our comprehensive service includes inspecting and tightening all bolts, checking the battery to ensure it’s fully operational, testing the safety sensors for optimal performance, lubricating the moving parts, and ensuring your stairlift glides smoothly along the track. We aim to ensure your stairlift remains reliable and safe for everyday use.
Unusual noises, slow movement, erratic operation, or warning lights on the control panel are signs that your stairlift needs maintenance.
As a leading stairlift provider, we ensure that our stairlifts come with warranties that often include regular maintenance during the coverage period. To fully understand what’s included, we recommend reviewing the specific terms of your warranty. We’re here to assist with any questions you might have.
Skipping regular maintenance can lead to mechanical failures, reduced safety, and a shorter lifespan for your stairlift. It may also void any warranty.
If your stairlift stops working, we recommend checking the power supply and battery first. If the issue persists, please reach out to us for professional repair and maintenance. We’re here to ensure your stairlift is back up and running smoothly.
Common issues include worn-out batteries, misaligned tracks, loose screws, and faulty sensors, all of which can be identified and fixed during maintenance.
