Stairs, decks, porches, and elevated platforms pose a barrier to the elderly and people in wheelchairs. Ramps and stairlifts may not be suitable for all applications. Vertical platform lifts (VPL) allow wheelchairs users to move from one level to another without leaving their assistive device. Established dealers in accessibility equipment offer vertical platform lifts in New York from leading manufacturers. Savaria’s M2Lift VPL is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

With a weight capacity of 750 lbs, this lift can easily accommodate a wheelchair or other mobility equipment. The device features a durable construction (with rust-resistant aluminum components) that ensures a reliable and long-lasting performance even during extremely cold temperatures. The lift comes with a self-supporting base and slim-profile twin tower construction that reduces visual obstruction.
