I was recounting in the last post about a “handicapped” workshop that had an amazing experiential component to it. There were 4 common ailments included that everyone got to try out: being blind (which I have described), being in a wheelchair which was kind of boring but boy has that changed since 1977, having an arm amputated and being deaf. Like I said the wheelchair experience was just rolling around in this large open space. They did not want us to take them outside because we could break them or we could be hurt ourselves. They did give each of us a cautious trip down some stairs at the door to the outside. There were three of them and it was creepy. My grandma was in a wheelchair so I did it better than most.
They had an extra attraction called being a child, which I will talk about tomorrow. So here is a wheelchair lift.
Wheelchair Platform Lifts
A simple and inexpensive wheelchair porch lift uses less space and is often a much more attractive and affordable solution than the alternative of installing a ramp.
These reliable vertical lifts can be installed outdoors or indoors and are designed to be completely resistant to the harshest weather conditions.
Wheelchair platform lifts for residential and commercial installations are easily installed and have a lifting range from 28″ up to as much as 12 feet (144″).
Our systems are an economical way to offer home / building accessibility.
Twenty years of manufacturing experience has resulted in the most durable and economical solution for wheelchair platform lift access in North America.
We will help you have a successful project, starting with offering four categories of wheelchair platform lifts.
Residential lifts for home use provides an attractive and practical solution for making your home accessible for a wheelchair user.
