Choose by travel height

Two configurations. One clear starting point.

Measure from the lower floor to the upper landing. The rise determines the base configuration; platform, gates, controls, finish, and mounting are then built around the site.

Platform size & travel path

Choose how you enter and exit.

The standard platform is 36 inches deep × 48 inches wide. That size easily accommodates a wheelchair traveling straight through. We describe every layout from the rider’s view while facing the column.

FROM
ABOVE
Column / back = the wall or upper landing sideLeft and right are the straight pass-through sides. The front is directly opposite the column.

Straight-through

Enter on the left and exit on the right—or travel in the opposite direction.

COLUMN / BACK LEFT RIGHT 48 in wide · left to right 36 in deep

90-degree turn

Use the left plus front—or the right plus front—to create a turning travel path.

COLUMN / BACK LEFT FRONT Right + front works too

Same-side entry & exit

Use one left, right, or front gate or opening and return through that same side.

COLUMN / BACK ONE SIDE Left, right, or front

Gates and openings: Up to two gates are included as standard. Each of the three travel sides—left, right, and front—can be specified as a gate or an opening, including layouts with no platform gates where the final project configuration allows.

A practical starting size

42–44 deep × 60–70 wideStarting range when a wheelchair and caregiver must make a 90-degree turn. Maximum platform: 44 deep × 70 wide.
