Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need a porch lift, stair lift, or vertical platform lift?
The right option depends on your mobility needs, available space, and how much travel height you need. Stair lifts are ideal for individuals who can safely transfer into a seated position, while vertical platform lifts are designed for wheelchair and scooter users. Porch lifts are commonly used for exterior entryways with steps or raised landings. Our Edmonton team can assess your property and recommend the best solution.
​
Can wheelchair lifts be installed outdoors in Edmonton winters?
Yes. Many of our outdoor wheelchair and porch lifts are specifically built for Alberta weather conditions, including snow, freezing temperatures, and moisture exposure. Weather-resistant finishes, enclosed components, and durable drive systems help ensure reliable year-round operation.
​
How much space is required for a wheelchair lift installation?
Space requirements vary depending on the type of lift and travel height. Compact vertical platform lifts can often fit into smaller residential entryways, while commercial installations may require additional clearance for accessibility compliance. We provide on-site assessments to confirm measurements before installation begins.
​
Are wheelchair lifts covered through Alberta funding programs?
Some clients may qualify for provincial funding, insurance coverage, veterans’ programs, or financing options depending on their medical and mobility needs. Our team can help explain common funding pathways and assist with documentation when available.
​
Can you install lifts in older homes without major renovations?
In many cases, yes. We work to minimize structural changes whenever possible and can often install porch lifts or vertical platform lifts without extensive remodeling. Every property is different, so we recommend an assessment to determine the safest and most practical setup.
​
What is the weight capacity of your wheelchair lifts?
Many of our wheelchair and platform lifts support between 550 and 750 lbs depending on the model. Capacity requirements often depend on whether the lift is being used for a manual wheelchair, power chair, scooter, or multiple users.
​
Do commercial wheelchair lifts need to meet accessibility codes?
Yes. Commercial lift installations in Edmonton must meet applicable building and accessibility requirements. Our team can help businesses choose compliant lift systems for schools, offices, healthcare facilities, churches, retail spaces, and other public buildings.
​
How long does wheelchair lift installation usually take?
Most residential installations can be completed within one to two days once the site is prepared. More complex commercial or custom lift systems may require additional time depending on electrical work, permits, or structural requirements.
​
What maintenance does a wheelchair lift require?
Routine maintenance helps keep your lift operating safely and reliably. This may include checking batteries, drive systems, safety sensors, controls, and moving components. We offer servicing, repairs, and ongoing support across Edmonton and surrounding areas.
​
Do you provide emergency repairs for wheelchair lifts?
Yes. We understand that many clients rely on their lift every day for safe access in and out of their home or building. Our local Edmonton-based service team can assist with troubleshooting, maintenance, and many emergency repair needs.
