The CantiLift

The Cantilift is a wheelchair lift that sits neatly in the floor until it’s needed, then with the click of a button, it can be raised out of the floor and up a small flight of stairs to allow wheelchair users to easily navigate. 

Because the lift sits in the floor when it’s not in use, the space can still be used freely by those who aren’t in need of the lift. For example, this installation was in a public library which constantly has people walking around and using the stairs. With the addition of the CantiLift these people can still move freely around the library but now wheelchair users can also easily use the library and not be held back by the restraints of the stairs.

The major difference between a personal lift and a wheelchair lift is the size of the platform. A wheelchair needs considerably more space than a person sitting or standing. Clients are often surprised by how much space some wheelchair lifts take up. Fortunately, Only Lifts can offer some of the worlds most space-efficient wheelchair lifts. Innovations in design and technologies now allow us to find a solution that not only meets the needs of the end-user but fits into the available space. When dealing with wheelchair lift installations outside the home a number of rules and legislation come into play. Our Trusted Assessor will advise you in all cases, guiding you through the process.

Only Lifts installs the best brands from leading manufacturers of wheelchair lifts. Every lift has a different level of noise and type of sound. Noise levels are a key design consideration. Clients often comment on how quiet the lifts are — 55-60 db (decibels) is a typical noise level for a screw drive lift. To provide some context, a washing machine on a standard programme creates a noise level of about 77 db.

We can’t guarantee your lift will be silent when in operation but the advanced engineering of the designs we sell allows them to move with minimal noise.
