Various Types Of Residential Lifts

21 March 2011

Residential Lifts are made and designed for the physically impaired people and the elderly to help them maneuver more easily around their home. For a normal person, it is his/ her routine to move within the different rooms; however, for those living with a mobility challenge, it proves to be very difficult.

One of the safest and reliable solutions for these people is the Stair Chair Lift. This type of chair lift is quiet comfortable and very easy to use. The track for this chair is installed on the stairs and then the person sits on the seat that is mounted on a base which travels up and down the length of the staircase.

Ceiling Lift is another solution. It is perhaps the most seamless patient transfer solution available. A ceiling track is installed and then a lift is mounted that enables a person in a sling to move along the track.

An Inclined Lift is another good option. It carries a person in a wheelchair or scooter on a platform along a stairway. As it will occupy the entire width of a stairway, the decision to buy this chair should be based on the space available.

A mobility ramp is the easiest solution. There are many sturdy, lightweight, modular or portable ramp systems available for you to choose from.
