Stannah Platform Lifts

Vertical Platform Lifts – access solutions from Stannah

Our Midilifts are designed to provide an easy alternative to the stairs for travel up to 12 metres. Three product ranges are available: Lowriser, our simple low rise platforms for wheelchair users; Midilift SL, our standard platform lifts and Midilift XL Plus, our top-of-the-range cabin platform lifts. All Midilifts are supplied with their own structure supported enclosure, which can be fitted with either steel or glass panels, or a combination of the two. Quick and easy to install, all our vertical platform lifts requires a minimum of builders work, making them extremely cost-effective access solutions.
