Inclined Platform Wheelchair Lift
 |
The Butler Mobility Inclined Platform Wheelchair Lift (IPL) is the perfect solution for a home with stairs where someone cannot transfer to a chair lift or needs to have a wheelchair on both levels of their home. Businesses, schools and churches can provide wheelchair access. Public and corporate buildings can have a safe and reliable solution for compliance with The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
As well as ADA-compliance, our wheelchair lift models meet or exceed all National Safety Code (ANSI/ASME code) requirements. Our wheelchair lift models are V.A. approved and have UL® and CSA certified components.
Standard lifting capacity is 500 lbs.(227 kg.) The optional lifting capacity is 750 lbs (350 kg).
In the event of a power failure, the standard battery backup will bring the platform up and down as many as 12-15 times, depending on the age of the battery, the height and the load, so the user is never left stranded

Comfort and Convenience
Each of the rails on our Inclined Platform Wheelchair Lift takes
up just four inches of stair width when the unit is not
in use, ensuring the safety and convenience of other
family members and users.
The Butler Inclined Platform Wheelchair Lift is also designed with appearance and functionality in mind. All the working mechanisms are concealed to offer a seamless, attractive appearance and optimum safety in homes and public buildings.
Color options
Butler Wheelchair Lift models are offered in two standard colors – tan and brown. Custom colors are available, often at no additional cost.

Butler wheelchair lifts are designed for installation that couldn’t be easier or less invasive. The rails attach at the top and bottom of the stairs with no modifications needed to walls. The power unit can be located almost anywhere at the bottom of the stairs including through an adjoining wall. Our Inclined Platform Wheelchair Lift uses standard residential or commercial 110 volt power.
