Mobility Lifts

While home elevators are a popular option for multi-story living, they’re just one part of accessibility solutions. For many homeowners, stairlifts, wheelchair lifts, and inclined platform lifts offer a practical or cost-effective way to stay independent and safe at home. These mobility lifts are built to overcome barriers like staircases, porches, and split-level entries making them especially valuable in homes where a full elevator installation isn’t feasible.

Stairlifts

Stairlifts are a straightforward and space-saving option for navigating stairs. Installed directly onto your staircase, these motorized chairs provide a smooth ride up and down the stairs, perfect for individuals with limited mobility. They come in a variety of models for both straight, curved and outdoor staircases, with features like swivel seats, safety sensors, and folding rails. Learn more about stairlifts »

Wheelchair Lifts

Also known as vertical platform lifts, wheelchair lifts provide vertical travel between two levels, ideal for porches, garages, or interior landings. These lifts accommodate both the user and their wheelchair or mobility scooter, offering a safe, ADA-compliant alternative when ramps or elevators aren’t practical. Explore wheelchair lifts »

Inclined Platform Lifts

Inclined platform lifts combine the functionality of a stairlift with the accessibility of a platform, allowing users in wheelchairs to glide along the stairs without transferring. These lifts are mounted alongside the staircase and fold away when not in use, making them a smart choice for homes where space is limited but full accessibility is needed.
