What is a lifting platform?

As mentioned above, a lifting platform is therefore a motorized device through which it is possible to access the different floors of a building without getting out of the wheelchair. It can be installed both indoors and outdoors and comes in several models, including:

  • Conventional lifting platform: fixed with vertical trajectory;
  • Mobile lifting platform: portable with vertical trajectory;
  • Oblique lifting platform: fixed with oblique trajectory, installs at the level of the stairs instead of a stair seat.

The advantage of the lifting platform to the outdoor access ramp

On the one hand, it requires less effort thanks to its motorized system. On the other hand, it is safer for outdoor use, especially during the rainy or snowy seasons. Indeed, it is usually equipped with a non-slip floor to prevent the wheelchair from slipping. Also, the user is not likely to fall during the trip since the device is fenced.

How to choose a lifting platform?

Here are the criteria to consider when  choosing a lifting platform:

  • The trajectory: vertical or oblique depending on the infrastructure present on the premises;
  • The model: fixed or portable depending on the use;
  • The technical specifications: dimensions of the platform, maximum load supported, the number of people it can accommodate or the running distance;
  • Available options;
  • The price of the device and the cost of the installation work.
