COMMERCIAL CHAIRLIFTS & STAIRLIFTS
COMMERCIAL WHEELCHAIR LIFTS FROM STURM ELEVATOR
Wheelchair and scooter mobility in commercial buildings offices can be a challenge. Not every building has the space to build a ramp at a 4% grade or less; as stipulated by the American’s with Disabilities Act. Creating wheelchair access is crucial in providing a workplace or business that is welcoming to all visitors and employees. Let Sturm Elevator show you how a commercial wheelchair lift can be the perfect solution to wheelchair and scooter mobility concerns, allowing the best accessibility to those who work in and visit your building.
The commercial wheelchair lift product line Sturm Elevator recommends comes from the team at Savaria. We generally work with the V-1504 Vertical Platform Lift. We particularly favor this brand and model because it is one of the safest on the market; both for the passenger and the wheelchair. This chairlift can lift a wheelchair and its passenger up one level or multiple levels in comfort. This model works well for commercial installations as it is very versatile. Whether you are looking to install a stylish chairlift for a multi-story art gallery or for an office that that lacks an elevator, the V-1504 can be customized to blend seamlessly with the space that it inhabits. This chairlift operates on a state-of-the-art hydraulic lift system that moves effortlessly up and down between level. The machine is an all in one unit and requires no additional machine room as many elevators require. On some buildings or spaces an outdoor unit is necessary or helpful and the V-1504 is an excellent choice for outdoor to indoor access, or access between levels on exterior structures.
When you consider the uses for a chairlift you may tend to think only of the obvious uses for a wheelchair, but there are many other types of users who benefit. Offices that have an entry on the street level and then a number of stairs up to the main level don’t allow a person who needs a scooter or a walking assistant to enter the office easily or with comfort. The V-1504 offers a large area on its platform to accommodate all manner of mobility assistance equipment.
As with many of the products we carry and install, the V-1504 is highly customizable with numerous options. This allows the chairlift to look and feel like it has always belonged in the space it’s installed. The images on our site are just a few of the many ways in which we can a customize the V-1504 chairlift for your space. From sleek and modern to rich and warm, the look and style of the V-1504 can be tailored to any taste and functionality. Sturm Elevator can help you determine if a chairlift from Savaria is the best fit for your business or commercial building. Call us today at 503-284-2003.

COMMERCIAL STAIRLIFTS FROM STURM ELEVATOR
If your business or commercial building is looking for a low-profile and affordable option for simple mobility challenges, then a stairlift installed by Sturm Elevator, made by Savaria is one of the best products we have to offer. An elevator can be quite a commitment between the cost, the time to install and the space required for the entire system. We work with Savaria, a leading designer and manufacturer of stairlifts, to bring you the best. Easy to operate and energy efficient, a stairlift takes up very little room and needs very little maintenance. A stairlift can provide the help to those who don’t need a wheelchair, but don’t have the strength or dexterity that they used to, to be able to easily move about your business or building. Older buildings may physically not have the space or ability to house an elevator, making a stairlift an excellent mobility solution.
