A platform wheelchair stair lift is similar to the seated stair lift, but it has a platform instead of a chair.
The platform will fold up out of the way when not in use. It has similar safety requirements to the seated lift, but with the additional requirement of a safety barrier and raised ramps on the edges of the platform while it is moving.
A platform lift is suitable for all types of wheelchairs. The size of the platform depends on whether the person is able to use the lift independently or whether they need an attendant to ride with them on the lift.
Also look at vertical wheelchair platform lifts.
