 Inclined Platform Lifts
An inclined platform lift provides convenient multi-level wheelchair access,
either indoors or outdoors. Very space-efficient, they take up
far less area than a ramp, and can be installed in most applications.
In private residences, inclined platform lifts allow homeowners access
the upper floor from the ground floor or yard.
In private residences, Western Elevator wheelchair lifts meet
or exceed The Canadian Standard, CAN/CSA-B613-M87 Elevating Devices
for the Disabled in Private Residences.
