Detailed Overview

The Smart Alternative to Ramps

When steps obstruct wheelchair access to a front door or garden, a traditional ramp isn't always feasible—they take up a massive amount of space and can ruin the aesthetic of your property. The TSL 500 Step Lift is a compact, self-contained unit that fits neatly next to or over existing steps, providing effortless vertical lifting without taking over your garden or driveway.

Safe & Independent Access

Designed specifically for wheelchair users, the TSL 500 ensures total independence. It features a very shallow approach ramp, making it incredibly easy to roll onto the platform. Once on board, constant-pressure controls allow you to smoothly and quietly operate the lift yourself. As the lift rises, the approach ramp automatically folds up to act as a secure wheel-stop, ensuring you cannot roll backward.

Built for the Scottish Weather

Whether you are installing it in a garage, a split-level hallway, or outside at your front door, the TSL 500 is built to last. Manufactured in the UK, it is highly durable, fully weatherproofed, and features a slip-resistant aluminum platform to ensure maximum safety in wet conditions. The lifting mechanism is also fully enclosed by protective bellows to keep out dirt, leaves, and debris.

Pedestrian Friendly

You don’t have to choose between a lift and your regular steps. The TSL 500 can be customized with "bridging steps." This means that when the lift is not in use by a wheelchair, family members and guests can still use the stairs normally, allowing both pedestrian and wheelchair access through the exact same doorway.
