Residential Vertical Platform Lifts for Homeowners in Marquette, MI
If you use a mobility aid such as a scooter or wheelchair, navigating elevation changes can be challenging at best and insurmountable at worse. Curb cuts and ramps can provide access to sidewalks, raised porches, and step-up entrances, but for climbs that are more than a few feet, ramps become ungainly. Thankfully, for homeowners in Marquette, Michigan, and neighboring communities throughout the Upper Peninsula, there is an alternative. At the Barrier Free Store, we can install a residential vertical platform lift that will provide safe and reliable transportation from ground level to elevations of up to 14 feet. Also known as wheelchair lifts or porch lifts, these elevator-like devices offer roll-in access to wheelchairs, scooters, and other mobility devices. And thanks to their compact design, residential lifts have a minimal footprint, so they won’t significantly impact driveway access or cover a large swath of your front yard the way a ramp would.
