Features

• The lift

  The Westminster Equality Act Lift uses three automatic rising barriers that rise 1100mm on the lift to fully enclose the user. For more information please click on lift barriers.

  The lift table can be made to accept any cladding, the thicker the cladding the deeper the pit depth.

  Nominal platform dimensions for this lift can vary due to site requirements. However, they are more than or equal to:

  1738 mm (l) x 1250 mm (w) x 0-2999 mm (h)

  Please see the lifting actuator for more information on the mechanism used to raise and lower the Westminster Equality Act lift.

• The stairs

  The Westminster Equality Act Stairlift can accommodate up to 21 stairs or a total rise of 2999 mm.

  Please see the retracting stairs technical page for more information.

• The upper landing barrier

  The Westminster Equality Act Stairlift houses an automatic rising barrier at the upper landing to protect against the fall hazard that is created when the stairs retract.

  Please see the upper landing barriers link for more information.

• User type

  The Westminster Equality Act Stairlift is for seated users and standing pedestrians.

  Please see on lift barriers for more information.

• Variations to the Westminster Equality Act Lift

  The on-lift left and right-hand side rising barriers can be replaced with permanent handrails that rise and lower with the lift as seen here: Whitehall DDA Lift.

  If there is not enough pit space for the stairs to retract horizontally then the Seattle ADA Lift allows for the stairs to retract vertically.

  If the pit depth is an issue then the on-lift rising barriers can be replaced with rising handrails and a gate as seen here: Cambridge Part M Lift.

  If it is a platform-only lift for standing and wheelchair users then the Pimlico Lift may be the solution.
