ACCESS INDUSTRIES
(PORCH-LIFT)
This self-contained unit is clad with metal panels to allow versatility in
use both indoors and outdoors. The Porch-Lift provides a cantilevered
platform lift with a re-circulating ball screw, or a rope hydraulic
system as the two drive mechanism options.
An older model of this unit, located at the Maricopa County
Courthouse in Phoenix, Arizona, was reviewed as part of the Analysis.
(The unit was not in operation due to provision of other means for
accessibility by the physically disabled, incorporated as part of the
recent building renovation.)
