The Ascension Protégé vertical portable wheelchair lift can be relocated through doorways as narrow as 36" using the narrow doorway pass-through feature. The lift is compressed and then pushed through the door on its own casters. With this innovative capability, the Ascension Protégé lift may be used in virtually any building with single doorways, such as older schools. The narrow doorway pass-through capability requires a simple tool kit from Ascension.
IMPORTANT: The Ascension Protégé vertical portable wheelchair lift ONLY needs to be modified if relocation through an opening of less than 48" is required.
