Stairlift Reviews

The Virtuoso model 5460F by the company Ascension is a lift for wheelchair users that can be installed in a permanent basis. This is a specialized mobility aid that can be used in any kind of house without requiring house modifications. This is a good option for two story-homes, stages and elevations or different levels of commercial and public buildings. There are other buildings with some form of barriers and installing this unit will help the handicapped overcome this burden.

This unit is a premium lift for a vertical direction. The design is of excellent quality with the convenience of the consumer in mind. Buyers of the Virtuoso model 5460F do not end up buying an ordinary platform lift but a one of a kind unit. Most wheelchair lifts require homeowners or buildings to make a tower for the machine which would mean reconstructing the house or the building. The company understands that this would make an aesthetic change on the house that most people do not want. This already makes the Virtuoso model a unique mobility aid.

The Virtuoso 5460F does not come with an accessibility ramp for the landing at the bottom. This makes entering the lift easier since it puts down the passenger at the floor and not on the ramp. This makes the entering and exiting easier. This is a rare design making the whole package look cleaner and more sophisticated.

Each unit of the Ascension Virtuoso complies with the standards set by the ADA. The company follows the regulations set in the ASME A18.1. This ensures that each unit is safe to use and is made with excellent quality.

The Virtuoso 5460F comes in one package without needing another pit to be installed. There is a lot of savings when buying this model. The owner does not need to change a portion of the floor and to create a pit. This is significant for owners who live in a building which some buildings and condominiums may not allow. The Virtuoso lift may be positioned in any location preferred by the user since it can be installed easily.

All of the features in a Virtuoso wheelchair lift are always installed permanently. The parts are not optional. The lift comes with a mechanism made of electro-hydraulic lifts and different stations for controlling the unit and one docking plate.

All the units are able to reach sixty inches. It can carry a load of seven hundred fifty pounds. It only requires the owner leaves at least five inches of a clear area after the landing area. The walls and the gate are made out of a thermoplastic material that has no color. It gives the passenger a good view of everything around while comfortably going up one level.

Optimal operation is not the only thing considered by Ascension. Each unit comes with an assurance that it has complied with the requirements mandated by ADA. The user should feel confident when using the Virtuoso wheelchair lift.
