Vertical Platform Lifts
Vertical Platform Lifts (VPLs) - often called a porch lifts or deck lifts - can be an economical way to provide wheelchair access to a home or commercial space such as a school, church or public building.
The best model for your project will likely depend on the number of stops that the lift needs to service, entry and exit configurations required, and the finish options desired.
All Savaria vertical platform lifts can be ordered in configurations suitable for commercial use – including ADA-compliant packages – with the exception of the M2lift which is designed specifically for residential use. The V-1504 and Multilift vertical platform lifts are also available with an enclosure.
VPLs are operated by constant pressure buttons to move the lift up and down. If a fully automatic solution is desired, an elevator is a better choice – Savaria offers home elevators as well as LU/LA elevators for commercial use.
