Phone: Mobility Scooters We offer mobility scooters to help you or your loved one stay mobile. Designs available for both standard use and for more rugged terrain, our scooters provide independence and mobility. Pathway Ramps Our outdoor ramps help people get in and out of their homes and are suitable for anyone who uses a walker, wheelchair or powerchair. Our heavyduty ramps are made from rust- resistant interchangeable parts. Vertical Lift Platform Our vertical platform lifts are available in any size to fit porches, decks or indoors. These lifts, which look like open-air elevators, are ideal for people who rely on wheelchairs, powerchairs and scooters. Curved Stairlift Our curved stairlifts can be installed on any staircase, including those with sections, curves, and multiple landings. The rail system is attached to the stairs and floor so no structural changes are necessary. Straight Stairlifts A straight stairlift is a simple mobility solution suitable for twostory homes with straight staircases. The track is attached to the stairs, not the wall, and the chair is compact and folds easily, keeping the stairs accessible for everyone.
