ASPAR manufactures vertical platform lifts for barrier-free movement of people with disabilities between building levels. The solution is selected around lifting height, platform dimensions, wheelchair type, installation location and site conditions.

For a 2 m level difference, consider cable-driven, chain-driven or hydraulic platforms. The ASPAR cable-driven family includes configurations with lifting heights up to 2 m. The specifications of each configuration are agreed for the site. Some chain-driven and hydraulic configurations can exceed 5 m. The drive, load capacity and equipment are selected for the conditions of the site.

This category includes cable, chain, hydraulic and scissor platform lifts. They address the same need for an accessible vertical route while differing in drive, construction and site requirements.

What determines the cost of a vertical platform lift

The quotation is based on the technical requirements of the site: lifting height, platform dimensions, load capacity, drive type, entry directions, materials and installation conditions. The configuration, delivery and installation are agreed separately in the proposal.

ASPAR VERTICAL PLATFORMS
Accessibility · Engineering · Installation

Vertical access between levels without travelling along the stairs

A vertical platform lift moves the user between two or more levels without travelling along a flight of stairs. ASPAR selects the platform according to the change in level, available area, entry direction, landings, operating conditions and model-specific parameters of the specific model.

01

When to consider a vertical platform

This solution is suitable for entrances, lobbies and other areas where safe landings can be arranged beside a change in level. Suitability is determined after the geometry and user route have been reviewed.

02

The problem it solves

The platform creates a vertical route when a ramp would require excessive space and travel along the stairs does not suit the site. If the route must follow the stairs, an inclined platform is assessed separately.

Three drives: where to start

Cable-driven platform →
Configurations up to 2 m; a folding platform is available.

Chain-driven platform →
Electromechanical chain drive; straight or side entry.

Hydraulic platform →
Hydraulic drive; lifting height and stops are agreed for the site.

Selection considers the change in level, installation area, entry directions and operating conditions. Dimensions, load and equipment are agreed individually.

CONFIGURATION

Standard and project-specific configuration

The model defines defined limits for load, height, drive and power. Platform size, guarding, gates, material, stops and building preparation are agreed for the specific site.

Three drive types in real projects

Examples of use, not standard configurations: each project has its own specifications.

IMPLEMENTATION

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

“Hydraulic lift”, “electromechanical lift” or “hydraulic ramp”: what equipment do these terms describe?

These may be search terms or informal names for a vertical lifting platform for a wheelchair user. A hydraulic platform uses a hydraulic drive system, while a cable-driven electromechanical platform uses an electromechanical drive with cable transmission. In this context, “hydraulic ramp” means a lifting platform, not a manually operated folding ramp. Calling it a “lift” does not mean that a platform can replace any passenger lift: its purpose, route and site-specific requirements must be assessed separately.

Is a shaft required?

The need for a shaft or guarding depends on the configuration and site conditions. It is determined after the installation area has been reviewed.

Can the platform be installed outdoors?

Outdoor installation is determined for the specific execution, controls, materials and protection measures.

What should be sent for the first quotation?

Photographs or drawings, change in level, area dimensions, entry directions, installation conditions and available power supply.

How do you choose between a cable, chain or hydraulic vertical platform lift?

The drive type and construction are selected around the change in level, available space, entry directions, landing areas and operating conditions. Cable, chain and hydraulic solutions have different configuration logic, so ASPAR selects the option for the specific route and site.

Discuss a vertical platform

Send photos or a plan, the change in level, landing dimensions and entry direction. Include operating conditions and available power.

We will check the route and agree the configuration before preparing a quotation.
