Wheelchair/occupant lifts are powered devices that transport seated individuals in wheelchairs between different floor levels, enabling vertical access in buildings like hospitals, homes, or offices. They feature an open platform where the wheelchair is positioned, allowing the user to be raised or lowered safely without relying on a lift shaft.
These devices are typically regulated as medical equipment, often requiring compliance with electrical safety standards and accessibility guidelines. They are generally supplied as standalone units, installed in designated areas to ensure safe and controlled vertical movement for wheelchair users.
