Wessex Lifts Blog, 2018

Wessex recently installed an LR for the United Free Church in Bishops Waltham, Hampshire. It was an excellent project, being close to home and requiring the use of custom colours! With only a few millimetres to spare, the LR was the perfect choice.

Through-floor Homelifts are the accessibility solution of the present. Enabling the user to travel from one level of their house to another, they can also be left out of sight and out of mind at the floor of your choosing.

It's important to remember that, as well as manufacturing home lifts, Wessex also maintain them, and have been doing so for over 40 years. We've therefore come to learn a thing or two about how to improve the longevity of home lifts. With that in mind, here are 3 easy things you can do:

Finding it difficult to decide which Wessex Product best suits your customer’s needs? For 2018, Wessex Lifts can provide you with even more solutions to add to your Home Lift Range.

The underside of the lift has a pressure sensitive surface, which is designed to stop the lift if it contacts an obstruction. If your pet or indeed any object is in the way of your Home Lift, it will simply be detected and the lift will stop automatically!

At Wessex, we think home lifts are pretty great, but could they, one day, save the world?

All our through-floor lifts and many of our platform lifts can be placed almost anywhere in a room, so ask if it can be placed somewhere that makes it stand out as a feature! The Liberty 3 example below was placed in the middle of some stairs.

With lift safety a top priority, we’re often asked what safety features we offer so that there is no cause for concern! With that in mind, here are 7 safety features of our through-floor lifts that we’re proud to be able to offer.

This is a difficult question. Given the wide and varied range of products we offer, we find it hard to put one price tag on our Domestic Lifts; after all, ‘Domestic Lifts’ can range from our SP Step Lift (which can help the user overcome changes in level of up to 0.5m) to our Liberty 3 Platform Lift (which can have multiple stops and can travel up to 6m), to our through-floor lifts (which are designed to simply travel between two floors).

We're only a few days into 2018, and we're already preparing for our first show of the year!

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. If so, we said a lot in 2017 as we have a selection of great images to show for it! We've trawled through them and come up with what we feel are the best 7. Enjoy...
