If you've considered installing a wheelchair lift you'll be happy to know that they are incredibly versatile.
They can be used in a variety of locations for user specific purposes.
Here is how.
Vertical Wheelchair Lifts - There are two types of wheelchair lifts, the first is the vertical lift.
Vertical lifts ascend and descend vertically without having any contact with a flight of stairs.
These models are great if you have an existing balcony in your home or if your staircase is to narrow to harbor a lift.
If you don't have an existing balcony you can still utilize a vertical lift.
All you have to do is cut a hole in the ceiling so that the lift can ascend to the second level.
Stair Gliding Lifts - If you have wider staircases or if cutting a hole in the ceiling sounds like more work than it's worth, consider installing a stair gliding platform lift.
These wheelchair lifts attach to the existing staircase.
By attaching them to custom-made rails the platform will glide up the staircase following the stairs natural bends and curves.
This model is great if your staircases are wide and open.
This option is ideal for homeowners who live alone, as they can sometimes hinder non-wheelchair users from using the stairs.
If you have a busy household but prefer to install a stair gliding lift, look for a model that folds up when not in use.
By folding the lift you'll enable other family members to use the stairs without having to skirt around the wheelchair lift.
Indoor - Obviously wheelchair lifts are great mobility options for homes and office buildings.
They can easily be attached to an existing stairwell and they can also be used independently of one.
Looking to install a wheelchair lift outside as well? Good news, they make special models just for that.
Outside Models - Wheelchair users deserve the freedom of mobility both inside and outside of the home or office.
If your home has a deck and a patio and a flight of stairs that connects the two, make sure you look into installing an outdoor wheelchair lift.
Outdoor lifts look, and operate, the same as indoor lifts; the only difference is that they are weather resistant.
Most models come with a cover and we recommend that you use it.
When it does rain, you'll be happy that you covered the lift last time you used it.
Wheelchair versatility speaks for itself, if you need to install a lift in your home or office, the option are limitless.
