A Vertical Platform Lift (VPL), also known as a porch lift, a deck lift, or a wheelchair lift, is the most convenient and affordable way for those with a wheelchair, power chair, or scooter to access all levels of your home or business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our VPLs offer a safe and reliable solution for those who have raised decks, stairs leading to a porch or garage, or for general public access for people with reduced mobility, disabled users, and the elderly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most affordable accessibility solutions, our VPLs have a capacity of 750 lbs and a heavy duty option of 1000 lbs. It allows you to easily transport both you and your mobility scooter or power wheelchair to an elevated area of your home or business. <strong>There are 4 types of vertical platform lifts:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong><span style=\"color:#055097\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Unenclosed:<\/span><\/strong> this is the most common VPL. It has 42\u201d high panel guards.<\/li><li><strong><span style=\"color:#055097\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Enclosed or Hoistway:<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color:#055097\" class=\"has-inline-color\"> <\/span>This type of VPL is mostly used in commercial settings. It\u2019s the same as the unenclosed vertical platform lift but installed either in a polycarbonate enclosure, or in a wooden hoistway built by a contractor. The polycarbonate enclosure offers one of the most aesthetic finished products.<\/li><li><strong><span style=\"color:#055097\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Portable:<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color:#055097\" class=\"has-inline-color\"> <\/span>The standard portable unenclosed VPL is mounted on a larger base which has 4 adjustable rollers, therefore the platform can be easily moveable.<\/li><li><strong><span style=\"color:#055097\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Inclined:<\/span><\/strong> The inclined platform lift gives access to straight stairways, for people in wheelchairs. This platform offers smoothness and softness while carrying you from one level to another allowing you to regain your autonomy. This unit fits in small staircases such as 34&#8221; residential ones.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"472\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image3-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"457\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image3-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/vertical-platform-lifts-what-are-they-and-what-are-the-benefits\/vpl-image3-1\/\" class=\"wp-image-457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image3-1.jpg 472w, https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image3-1-202x300.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 472px) 100vw, 472px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"472\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image2-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"456\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image2-2.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/vertical-platform-lifts-what-are-they-and-what-are-the-benefits\/vpl-image2-2-2\/\" class=\"wp-image-456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image2-2.jpg 472w, https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image2-2-202x300.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 472px) 100vw, 472px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"472\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image4-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"458\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image4-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/vertical-platform-lifts-what-are-they-and-what-are-the-benefits\/vpl-image4-1\/\" class=\"wp-image-458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image4-1.jpg 472w, https:\/\/www.ameriglide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/VPL-image4-1-202x300.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 472px) 100vw, 472px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Benefits of Owning a Vertical Platform Lift<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from having peace of mind and the ability to regain your independence and mobility, our VPLs offer a handful of other benefits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong><span style=\"color:#055097\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Smooth and Quiet:<\/span><\/strong> with its innovative direct acme screw mechanism, our VPLs offer the smoothest and quietest runs on the market.<\/li><li><strong><span style=\"color:#055097\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Best Price Guaranteed:<\/span><\/strong> because we are a manufacturer, we are able to provide our customers with the best possible price on all VPLs!
