If you or someone in your household is confined to a wheelchair, then accessibility is an important part of making a Howard County home safe and comfortable. Have you considered investing in a wheelchair lift? Here are some reasons why a wheelchair lift is a better choice for your home than a wheelchair ramp.
In general, a wheelchair ramp is best for inclines of no more than six feet. If your house has a rise any higher than that, it won’t be safe for a wheelchair ramp. Wheelchair lifts are suitable for rises of up to fourteen feet, which provides a lot more options.
A wheelchair lift tends to be much more user-friendly than a typical ramp. Although wheelchair ramps are perfectly suited for wheelchairs, what most people don’t know is that a power scooter is more ideal for getting up a ramp because of how much work it takes. A person in a wheelchair doesn’t have to fight gravity to make it up, and a wheelchair lift is better suited to higher inclines. With just the push of a button, a wheelchair lift takes you where you need to go.
A wheelchair lift can be the perfect fit for a Howard County home. Whether you need a vertical lift or one that follows an incline, a wheelchair lift could be a great choice. Unlike a wheelchair ramp, a wheelchair lift can also blend in with your home’s curb appeal. Also, a wheelchair lift is easier to cover during inclement weather, which can keep it in good working condition throughout the year.
