Whether a wheelchair lift fits in your home depends on space, layout, and lift type.
- Measure the Space:
Vertical Platform Lifts (VPLs): Need 4-5 sq. ft. plus clearance; height range 4-14 ft.
Inclined Platform Lifts (IPLs): Require a staircase at least 36 inches wide; some fold when not in use.
- Check Accessibility:
Ensure enough room for wheelchair entry, exit, and turning.
- Structural Needs:
Floors or walls may need reinforcement; outdoor lifts are an option.
- Power Source:
Requires a dedicated electrical outlet or hardwiring.
- Aesthetics & Layout:
Work with a professional to blend the lift into your home’s design.
- Regulations:
Check local codes, zoning laws, or HOA rules.
