What is a Platform Lift?

For over a hundred years now, lifts have been key to the efficient movement of people around buildings with more than two floors, or with split level flooring. In commercial buildings it is now a legal requirement that adequate provision is made for people with impaired vision or mobility, and in most cases, this comes down to the installation of either a passenger or a platform lift.

What is the Difference Between a Passenger and a Platform Lift?

Passenger lifts are an excellent solution for buildings expecting heavy lift usage, due to the lift being the only way to move between floors. A typical passenger lift will carry between 3-33 people and will travel at speeds faster that 0.15m/s. This type of elevator installation requires either a legacy lift shaft, or the excavation of a new lift pit and shaft.

Platform lifts do not require a lift shaft, but they are designed to carry fewer people than the passenger lift

typically 1-5 users. The platform lift travels at speeds of 0.15m/s or less and are ideal for buildings where stairs are the normal way to access split level flooring or multiple floors. This kind of lift is normally used primarily to enhance disable access.

Gulf Tech platform lifts allow for accessibility to be improved without compromising on the style or décor that already exists within the installation space.

Our range of Gulf Tech platform lifts and recessed platform lifts are ideal for heritage buildings and older institutions that would benefit from having platform lifts camouflaged to blend into their existing surroundings.

It is not only older buildings that may require a Gulf Tech platform lift

Tower Lifts can offer recessed platform lift designs that have hidden safety barriers and are perfect for outdoor installations that will not ruin the surroundings as permanent fixtures can often do.

Our Gulf Tech platform lifts can be installed inside and outside and tailored to fit your needs

With a lifting height of up to 3 meters and a maximum carry weight of 350kg, our experienced and professional designers can create an ideal Gulf Tech platform lift that can be recessed into the floor or integrated into staircases, as required.

When integrated into staircases, our Gulf Tech platform lifts become invisible until activated via the control switch. The stairs are then automatically converted into a platform that can be operated using the directional control panel.
