Stiltz unveils inclusive homelift offering greater accessibility for wheelchair users
Homelifts specialist Stiltz unveiled its new Trio Classic L Homelift at the Occupational Therapy Show in Birmingham recently, where the firm won ‘Best in Show’ for its stand design.
Delegates were able to get onboard the Trio Classic L for the first time and engage with the on-stand team regarding its capabilities.
The new and inclusive homelift offers greater accessibility and comfort for manual and powered wheelchair users. With a generous platform size and specialist features, it provides an ideal access solution for clients with more complex needs.
As a future-proofed solution, it will continue to facilitate safe transfers between floors even if user requirements change over time.
After his involvement in the theatre sessions, occupational therapist Stuart Barrow commented: “It is great to have this new homelift to complement the existing Stiltz range as it opens up more options to facilitate identified needs at home.”
The new Trio Classic L was presented alongside the established Duo+ and Trio+ homelifts. The Stiltz team used the three diverse solutions to explore practical and clinical approaches to effective homelift provision.
Together the wants, needs and risks of clients were discussed in a range of scenarios and how homelifts are proven to provide sustainable alternatives to stairlifts.
The Trio Classic L Homelift extends the Stiltz range by providing a new proposition in heavy duty domestic lifts. Its wider, powered door facilitates easier ingress for larger powered wheelchairs and has near-level access.
The lift car is fully enclosed for safety and reassurance whether standing or in a wheelchair and there is the option for full or half-height doors.
Once onboard, the minimal aesthetics provide a clean and fresh feel, whilst being lifted by powerful electric motors with a safe working load of 250kg.
Multi-national Stiltz is a specialist manufacturer of pioneering through-floor homelifts. Its two-person Duo Homelift and three-person, wheelchair-accessible Trio Homelift, deliver an alternative to stairlifts.
