by | Jun 27, 2025 | Lifts

Adding a home lift sounds fantastic for many homeowners, but they’re often daunted by how much they think the cost will be. If you’ve been considering home mobility solutions, but holding yourself back because you feel you can’t afford a home lift, we have good news: they’re often more economical than you expect. Since 1987, RAM Elevators + Lifts has been one of the industry’s most trusted manufacturers of innovative and reliable home elevation solutions. Our mission is to make every space as accessible as possible, without compromising on style for cost.

Whether you’re future-proofing your home, supporting a family member with mobility needs, or wanting to incorporate accessible design for future resale value, here are five ways RAM delivers valuable solutions that work beautifully and fit your life.

1. Designed for Short Travel, Big Impact

Most home accessibility needs don’t require a multi-story solution. Whether you’re dealing with a front porch, garage entry, or a few interior steps, the Flex Lift is built for short vertical travel—up to 14 feet. That makes it a perfect match for common elevation changes around the home, where ramps may be inefficient or too steep to navigate safely all year round.

2. Compact and Efficient

Like all RAM solutions, the Flex Lift is engineered for space-efficient installation. It doesn’t require complex structural modifications and has its own integrated drive system. As a bonus, Flex Lift can be surface-mounted with minimal prep.

This reduces construction time and costs, making the Flex Lift ideal for retrofitting existing homes with minimal disruption.

3. Built for Canadian Conditions

Affordability means nothing without durability. The Flex Lift is designed and manufactured right here in Canada, meaning it’s ready to face tough weather and seasonal changes. With all-weather performance and an optional enclosed system for added protection from the elements, you’ll always be covered and have the help you need when it matters most.

4. Low Operating & Maintenance Costs

The Flex Lift features RAM’s robust, low-maintenance drive system, requiring no hydraulic fluids or complex electronics. With fewer moving parts and straightforward operation, it’s easier and cheaper to maintain over the long run. Best of all, we ensure all of our dealers are properly trained, so you’ll always get the quality care you deserve.

5. Flexible Options Without Overbuilding

Flex Lift comes with smart standard features, but is built to be as versatile as possible. That means you can choose exactly what fits your space and needs, from platform size to enclosure type and access gates. This modular approach helps give you control over both function and cost!
