WHAT KIND OF LIFT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
STAY IN THE HOME YOU LOVE WITH A HOMELIFT
When the stairs become a problem we tend to consider moving home before ever thinking of the option of having a home lift installed . The home lift industry has seen a significant amount of innovation and the cost and options available to us are wider than ever before . As more and more of us decide to age at home and adapt our homes for safer and independent living , having a home lift installed in the home has become a real option for Ireland’s seniors.
These home lifts are small , discreet and extremely effective in a residential environment. These lifts are ideal for moving two people simultaneously, or one comfortably seated, between two floors.
The glass cabin provides a pleasant feeling of spaciousness and the interior details, such as the handrail, the presence lighting, the touch panel and the folding seat, were specially designed for user comfort.
