Vertical Wheelchair Lifts
The PCDE and HPCDE models come equipped with a factory supplied enclosure with clear or tinted acrylic panels. These attractive models allow light into the runway, which permit the user to see from the unit during operation. This is the only differentiating feature between the PCDE/HPCDE models and the CDE/HCDE models.
National Wheel-O-Vator can supply a wide variety of flush mounted doors/gates to finish the job. Typical doors are flush mounted steel units ranging in height from 42" to 80". We also produce non-fire rated wood doors that come finished or unfinished. If required, fire rated steel doors can be supplied, which are primed in gray. Local codes and regulations will specify the type of door permitted in your area.
FSV Package
The fastest screw driven vertical platform lift available in the market today. The FSV package allows for travel speeds up to 30 feet per minute on all of our Acme Screw Drive units,which means you get to your destination up to 3 times faster than other vertical platform lifts.
Standby Power Package
An optional standby power package is available on all our screw drive vertical platform lifts. This package allows the unit to be raised or lowered under emergency battery power. (The hydraulic unit comes standard with battery power.)
Extruded Aluminum Enclosure Package
For those seeking a vertical platform lift with a contemporary look and feel, an extruded aluminum enclosure package is available for our Model CDE and PCDE. This package includes aluminum side guards, complimented by a stainless steel grab rail and call/sends.
Our aluminum grab rail is a required option on all commercial lifts.
A stainless steel face plate with emergency platform lighting is available as an option. To make the unit more secure, an on/off keyed switch can be added on all operating panels.
Low Profile Carriage
We encourage all vertical platform lifts to be installed in a pit to provide the user an unobstructed entrance to the unit. However, many applications cannot be pitted and a lower level ramp is required. Ramps are typically 30" long. Our "low profile carriage" option is available on all enclosed vertical platform lifts. This feature reduces the lower landing height by approximately 50%. National Wheel-O-Vator’s design reduces the ramp length to 16" in new construction and as short as 10" in existing construction. The low profile carriage decreases the total space required and greatly enhances user convenience.
