Overview

Don't let stairs be a barrier!

For vertical home lifts to allow level changes (porch to ground, garage entry to house level, etc.) for your wheelchair or scooter, choose Mac's Vertical Home Lift Systems.  This is the perfect solution to get you or your loved one or client in and out of your house (or a public place)!    The lift can be used indoors and outdoors to vertically transport a wheelchair user or otherwise mobility-impaired person, up and over a low-rise barrier created by stairs, thus creating access to or within the building.    A Vertical Platform Lift is an economical and practical answer to stair barriers. 

We are proud to serve the State of North Carolina for the Mac's Lift products!   We'll also provide the product to states neighboring North Carolina.  We provide product demonstration, planning, installation, service and support.

Why install a platform lift?  Why not a ramp? 

There are many situations where a vertical platform lift is recommended.  Look around your home or facility for level changes such as:

When you require a modest level change, you have two choices: 

Platform lifts take a lot less space than ramps.  Industry recommendations for ramps suggest one linear foot per vertical inch of rise and turnaround platforms every 15-20 feet.  Using these guidelines, you would need a ramp of over 36 feet plus one or two turnaround platform(s) to safely rise three feet (36 inch).   A platform lift will occupy a much smaller footprint and, in most cases, is LESS expensive than a properly built ramp.   Should your need for a platform lift end, platform lifts are easy to remove and the location is more easily returned to its original condition.
