Wheelchair lifts are designed for two-storey accommodation, used by wheelchair users and people who have restricted mobility. They are commonly described as vertical lifts, platform lifts, through floor lifts, disabled lifts or homelifts. Small lifts that will fit into any home they provide freedom of the whole house. Home wheelchair lifts can be located in any downstairs room and move up through an aperture in the ceiling to the room above (usually the user's bedroom). When not in use the lifts can be parked at either level, leaving maximum living space available. Simple animation shows the operation of a typical Wheelchair Lift. |

Dolphin Lifts supply and install through floor lifts manufactured by 3 companies. Wessex Medical, Pollock Lifts and Terry Lifts. Dolphin have chosen these manufacturers because they each produce lifts which have a unique selling point.

Three themes have run through all Pollocks Lifts since the earliest days - quality, design and safety. The number of Pollocks Lifts still in use long after they were built is testament to their quality. Our designs continue to lead, with you the user clearly in mind. As for fire safety, we pioneered electronic links from smoke alarms to return the lift to the first floor automatically as smoke is detected. Today we are still pioneering added safety in our lifts. |

Terry Compact Through Floor Lift
As space is always limited Terry have employed an ingenious car design so that the Harmony Compact lift is only fractionally larger on the outside than it is on the inside. A larger version of this lift is available for wheelchair users. Operation is simple. Having called the lift from the easily accessible wall control switch, a push of the appropriate direction button signals in the car to travel up or down. The aperture ceiling panel is automatically lifted or replaced en route. To exit the car, simply follow the procedure in reverse. |
