Disabled Lifts in Southport

Posted by 2mags

There is an increase in the need for disabled lifts in Southport due to a large number of people with disabilities in the UK. It is estimated that there are over 9 million people living with some sort of disability which affects their daily life. This is made more difficult as older buildings were not built to take disability access into account. The Equality Act 2010 is a document which was created to give the disabled the same service as able-bodied people. The Act makes it a duty to make building adjustments to ensure reasonable access for all. This includes the fitting of ramps, stairway lifts and automatic doors as well as widening doorways and providing clearer lighting and signs. In many cases, platform lifts are the chosen form of access for wheelchair users in commercial and business buildings.

It is only right that everyone has access to all buildings in the UK. In Southport, disabled lifts can be installed in most buildings with a minimum of trouble. The wheelchair lift has a low space requirement and can be unobtrusively installed next to a staircase which will allow mobility impaired people to ascend on the platform lift. These devices are often installed in homes as an alternative to stairlifts as they can accommodate wheelchairs and mobility scooters. The SB200 is a screw driven vertical platform lift made from high-quality materials and designed to meet not only looks but function.
