Apex platform lifts for homes and public buildings
Wheelchair lifts are popular in schools, places of worship and other public spaces, and they are just as useful at home. A lift makes a building wheelchair accessible without using much room.
Our team can assist from the planning stage. The Apex product line is fully code compliant and meets national and local safety standards, which removes the guesswork. Four models are available: Apex Green, Apex Hydro, Apex Complete and Apex Elite.
The Apex Green is a rugged vertical platform lift that stands up to severe weather. A tower structure houses the mechanical components.
This economical wheelchair lift travels up to 6 feet, the right range for a porch or for the outside of a small business that wants to be accessible.
The Apex Hydro is suited to indoor and outdoor use in homes and commercial buildings. Its versatile design fits anything from an outdoor deck to a smart office lobby.
The Apex Complete is our factory enclosure model. It is made for outdoor use, where it keeps the rider partly or wholly out of the weather, and it is widely chosen for commercial installations that must meet code.
The Apex Elite sits at the top of the range for luxury and convenience, and it suits high-end commercial buildings and homes.
Steps at the door, a raised deck, a sunken room or a split level: each is a full stop for someone using a wheelchair. We install Apex platform lifts that bridge these changes in height for homes and public buildings in Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, the Lehigh Valley and Philadelphia.
We check the site, advise on code requirements and complete the installation. Call 570-217-8426 or book a site visit.
Most of our installations are vertical lifts, which rise straight up from a small pad next to the steps. Where the only route is an existing staircase, an inclined lift carries the wheelchair along it on a folding platform.
Sloping lots are common here, and so is snow. We cover both in wheelchair lifts for hillside homes and keeping outdoor steps safe in a Pennsylvania winter. For access between floors indoors, read living in a two-story home as a wheelchair user or see our home elevators.
For a low rise with plenty of space, a ramp is fine. For anything higher, or on a small or sloping lot, a lift takes far less room and is easier to use.
Usually, yes. The lift needs a level pad at its base, which can be formed on a slope. We assess the ground during the site visit.
An annual service is recommended, with a check before winter for outdoor lifts.
Yes. Platform lifts are widely used to make entrances, stages and split-level areas accessible.
