Why consider a through floor lift?

If you use a wheelchair or mobility device, using a through floor lift allows you to use your device without having to transfer on or off a seat. These lifts have easy to access controls, grab bars and a non-skid platform.

Benefit from a walk-in tub with easier access than with a traditional tub, and experience a comfortable immersion experience while seated securely.

There are models with customizable jets to massage your neck, legs, feet and back. They are feature-rich with Chrome lever-handled faucets, thermostatic anti-scald valves, anti-slip floor and seat, and a convenient and practical hand-held shower with adjustable slider bar.

No worries about leaking from the door seal because the inward opening door ensures that there is no stress on the door hinge. In fact, the water pressure from the full bathtub, and our stainless steel locking mechanism with a rotating handle work together to keep the door sealed tightly and securely.

Outdoor railing is available in various colours and styles. These are made of aluminum for better reliability and maintenance free life. Railing is better installed on both sides of the stairs for increased safety. Choose colour contrast for greater visibility. Round handrails are easier to grip. Non-slip surfaces for the steps and the walkway help with reducing falls.

Modular design of ramps allows virtually any configuration. Ramp slopes are limited by OBC, hence will require quite a large space to accommodate the ramp structure if the elevation is high. Ramps are available in aluminum or powder coated steel. The Qramp is unique as it offers an exclusive ThruFlow TM panel as a running surface. The ramp platform is made of reinforced polypropylene which helps to keep it light weight compared to other building materials. It is also non-slip, quiet in use and does not deflect under heavy weight. The ThruFlow TM panel allows water and snow to pass through with superior non-slip ability and at the same time provide low maintenance and require no painting or staining.
