PL-RA Residential Lift

Other than providing you with greater freedom of mobility, our #1 concern with all of our wheelchair lifts is your safety and comfort. Each PL-RA undergoes rigorous testing for quality assurance prior to shipping. They fully comply with ADA accessibility guidelines. They are the same standards we use for our entire Porch-Lift Series and that's why it's the preferred choice for architects, builders, business owners and home owners from coast to coast.


You and your loved ones will especially enjoy the smooth, quiet ride of your PL-RA. This powerful residential model features a gate at the upper landing and an automatic folding ramp at the lower landing. Separate controls at each level ensure that your lift will be exactly where you want it at the push of a button. Its VDRTM mechanical interlocks prevent the lift from moving until the gate is securely closed.


And remember that this tiny titan lifts a rated load of up to 550 lbs. and operates on a standard household current. It is designed for indoor or outdoor use. Should your needs require a taller lifting height than 6'3", we offer other commercial models that travel over 14'.

Safety Features:

There are multiple safety features built into each lift. Highly sensitive sensors detect when an object is blocking the lift's path, helping prevent damage to the item or lift. Once the path is cleared, the lift continues to your destination.

Controls:

Optional remote controls can be mounted on or near the lift, giving you instant accessibility at your fingertips. It's a real convenience if more than one person will be using the lift. The standard controls on the lift include a directional paddle, an emergency stop button, and a key lock to secure the lift against unauthorized use.

Technical Features and Warranty:

The PL-RA is backed by a solid two-year drive train/one-year parts warranty. It is designed and built to the specifications established by the ADA guidelines and carries the prestigious Underwriters Laboratories label.
