Detailed Overview
Conquer Higher Steps Without the Ramp When you need to bypass a level change of up to 1 metre, a traditional wheelchair ramp would need to be exceptionally long to remain safe and compliant. The TSL 1000 Step Lift solves this by providing vertical lifting in a compact footprint. It fits neatly into your existing layout, restoring full access to your home, garden, or public building without dominating the space.
Pedestrian and Wheelchair Harmony A major advantage of the TSL 1000 is its versatility. It can be equipped with custom "bridging steps." This brilliant design feature means that when the lift is lowered, the platform transforms into standard steps. Pedestrians can walk right over it as usual, while wheelchair users can easily deploy the lift when needed. Everyone uses the exact same door.
Simple, Safe, and Independent Operation User safety and independence are at the heart of the TSL 1000. The lift features a very shallow approach ramp for easy boarding. Once inside, illuminated, constant-pressure controls make it incredibly easy to operate. For added security, the approach ramp automatically folds up to act as an arrestor, preventing the wheelchair from rolling backward while the lift is in motion.
Built to Withstand the Elements Manufactured in the UK, the TSL 1000 is rugged and durable. If installed outside, the fully weatherproofed finish and slip-resistant surface ensure maximum safety in the rain or snow. The smooth hydraulic lifting mechanism is completely enclosed by protective bellows, ensuring leaves, debris, and dirt stay out of the moving parts.
