What Is a Porch Lift?

Porch lifts are a type of vertical platform lift (VPL) that are durable, straightforward mobility mechanisms designed to help people safely navigate outdoor levels. This kind of assistance can be especially useful for homeowners who rely on wheelchairs, walkers, or for those who simply want to make their outdoor spaces more accessible for everyone.

Unlike traditional elevators, porch lifts don’t require major construction, bottomless pits, or elaborate modifications. This makes them fast to install and simple to maintain, which is ideal for homeowners seeking an easy and affordable solution to outdoor access challenges!

The RAM Flex Lift Advantage

RAM’s Flex Lift is one of the most innovative and versatile solutions on the market, combining functionality with cutting-edge design that can be customized to almost any space.

Flex Lift is engineered to be weather-resistant and durable, allowing for reliable year-round performance, even in freezing outdoor conditions during the winter. Standout features include:

  • Impressive Travel Height: With the ability to travel up to 14 feet, the Flex Lift is ideal for a variety of settings, including elevated decks, split-level homes, and garages.
  • 750 lb Capacity: Flex Lift features a substantial weight capacity, accommodating both individuals and their mobility devices, making it a versatile option for diverse needs.
  • High 42” Side Walls: That provide enhanced protection from the elements and ensure safety during use, offering year-round peace of mind.
  • Soft Touch Paddle Controls: Flex Lift’s large, easy-to-use controls are designed to be accessible even for individuals with limited hand strength, making operation intuitive and straightforward.
  • Zero-Load Start Design: ensures the lift starts smoothly, reducing strain on the motor and increasing the system’s lifespan.
  • Customization Options: With a range of custom enclosures and colour options, the Flex Lift can blend seamlessly with your outdoor aesthetics, ensuring your lift is as stylish as it is functional.
  • Electric Power: The all-electric operation eliminates the need for hydraulic oil, reducing messy maintenance while ensuring clean, quiet, and reliable power — no matter the weather!
