Why Ascension Wheelchair lifts?
Ascension wheelchair lifts are designed to be as low impact on a space and a user as possible. This means that each Ascension lift features:
ADA Compliance
ADA compliance varies with each state, region, and local municipality. That’s why Ascension provides a free plan review for every project during the quote process. This way, we can ensure that your chosen wheelchair lift will always meet ADA requirements.
Pitless Design
Unlike many wheelchair lifts, Ascension lifts features a pitless design to remove the need for excavation or damage to a location during the lift’s install.
Towerless Design
Rather than the large tower used to hold lifting mechanisms common to wheelchair lifts, Ascension lifts feature a towerless design, made possible from housing the lifting mechanisms in the walls of the lifts. This enables each Ascension lift to maintain a low profile aesthetic and small footprint.
Flush Entrance
Each Ascension wheelchair lift features a flush entrance and exit without the need for ramps. Ramps require greater floor space to use and thus a larger area for a lift installation.
Window Space
Each Ascension wheelchair lift has been designed to maximize the clear window space present in order to prevent rider anxiety, claustrophobia, and allow caregivers to monitor the rider.
Warranty
Ascension stands behind every lift we make. Each Ascension wheelchair lifts comes with an unparalleled 10-Year Drivetrain, 4-Year Parts, 90-Day Labor warranty.
Made in the USA
With so many other wheelchair lift manufacturers importing these days, Ascension is proud to say that every lift we make is designed, built, and shipped from Tucson, Arizona, USA.
