To determine the type of wheelchair lift you are going to install, you need to know where you want to install the wheelchair lift. It’s all about location, inside verses outside, home verses business. Once you know where your wheelchair lift is going, you can then start to look at the many available options. For a business or office building, it’s best to invest into a lift that will adequately serve the majority of wheelchair users. If installing in a home, you can have higher consideration for the individual needs of the intended wheelchair lift user.

For installation in an office, try to choose a wheelchair lift that can accommodate most, if not all, wheelchair users who will come through your door. The simpler and more secure the lift, the better. You don’t want to install a lift that is going to confuse customers or visitors. If customers and visitors are going to use your lift, you want them to feel comfortable doing so.

With home lifts for wheelchairs, you have a little more leeway. If you know that the intended user is comfortable using wheelchair lifts, you may be able to get a smaller lift that does not have walls or is not completely enclosed. Or, if needed, you can look into getting a wheelchair lift built to handle outdoor conditions.

Before purchasing a wheelchair lift, make sure you know who your intended users will be. To see a variety of wheelchair lift options, check out the lifts available through Apex Wheelchair Lifts at Apexwheelchairlifts.com. Apex is sure to have the perfect wheelchair lift for your home or business.
