IL500 Sierra Incline Platform Lift – A Quality Accessibility Option for Residences
Posted: Jul 14, 2015
When it comes to access between the floors of a building, platform lifts are an ideal option for wheelchair users. Unlike stair lifts, wheelchair lifts as they are also called, do not require the user to transfer from their chairs. These devices can be used on straight, curved or spiral staircases. Dealers in accessibility equipment offer various types of models from popular brands. If you have a straight stairway in your home, Harmar’s IL500 Sierra Incline Platform Lift could be the ideal option. This energy-efficient residential lift mounts to the stairs and not the wall and comes with a capacity of 500 lbs to carry most manual wheelchairs up to 36" in length.

This light weight wheelchair lift can be easily installed and does not require any specific wall modifications, saves installation costs and time. It features auto-folding ramps on both ends of the platform. The lift platform folds to just 13" wide when not in use, thereby allowing easy access to the stairs. The sensors on the platform ramps, drive chassis, and under-platform safety pan are designed to immediately stop the operation of the lift if an obstruction is encountered.
