A wheelchair lift is a space-saving way to make a home or business wheelchair accessible, and it is a familiar sight in schools, places of worship and other public spaces. Our knowledgeable team is on hand from the planning stage of your project.
The Apex line is fully code compliant and meets national and local safety standards. Choose from the Apex Green, Apex Hydro, Apex Complete and Apex Elite.
The Apex Green is a versatile vertical platform lift designed for durability in the Illinois climate. A robust tower houses all the mechanical components for dependable performance in harsh weather.
The Apex Green is an affordable outdoor wheelchair lift that travels up to 6 feet. It is a sensible, low-maintenance choice for a residential porch or a small business entrance.
Indoors or out, the Apex Hydro is a dependable hydraulic vertical platform lift for homes and commercial properties, from an outdoor deck to an office lobby.
The Apex Complete is a factory-enclosed platform lift for residential and commercial use. Outdoors it shields riders from harsh weather, which makes it a dependable year-round choice, and it is popular with businesses and public buildings that have code requirements to meet.
The enclosure has durable aluminum framing with acrylic inserts. Options include:
The Apex Elite is the premier choice for luxury homes and upscale commercial buildings. Its fully enclosed design can be customized to suit the space.
Getting in and out of your own home should never require help. An Apex wheelchair lift gives wheelchair and scooter users a way past steps that they can operate themselves. We install them in Chicago, Naperville, Peoria, Springfield and throughout Illinois.
We work with homeowners, congregations, schools and business owners. Each project begins with a site survey and ends with hands-on training.
Vertical models rise beside a stoop, porch or deck and need only a small pad to stand on. Where the only route is a staircase, an inclined model carries the platform along the stairs. Our guide to vertical and inclined wheelchair lifts compares the two.
Many Illinois homes have a half flight of steps at the entry, which is too high for a practical ramp. A platform lift in the garage or beside the front steps solves it, as we explain in wheelchair lifts for raised ranch and split-level homes. For the stairs inside, see our stair lifts and home elevators.
A vertical lift is simpler and quicker to use wherever there is open space beside the steps. An inclined lift is the answer when the staircase is enclosed and nothing else will fit.
Yes, and it is a popular choice. The lift is protected from the weather and raises the rider from the garage floor to the level of the door into the house.
Models are available for anything from a couple of feet up to a full story.
Accessibility laws apply to many businesses and public buildings, and what is required depends on the building. Your architect or code official can confirm, and we can help with the equipment.
