The Ascension Virtuoso 5460P vertical portable wheelchair lift offers a unique package of quality, performance, durability, safety, and ADA compliance, unmatched by any other portable lift.
- The Ascension Virtuoso model series is the only ADA compliant portable wheelchair lift in the world that does not require a ramp or machine tower.
- Ascension vertical portable wheelchair lifts are specifically designed to be portable. Most other portable lifts are really fixed lifts (i.e., meant to be permanently installed) that have been modified with some type of wheel undercarriage; they have not been redesigned to facilitate movement of the lift.
- The Ascension Virtuoso lift does not have a machine tower as part of its construction. Other portable lifts use a machine tower to house the drive mechanism; such towers typically exceed 72" in height and obstruct the line of sight to stage activities.
- The Ascension Virtuoso lift employs multiple safety devices specifically designed to accommodate the portability of the lift. These include a safety skirting that completely encloses the underside of the lift, gate interlock, a GFCI to shut off power in the event of a partial or complete short circuit or current overload, and a setup system that will only allow the lift to operate if the wheels are in their proper storage position.
- The Ascension Virtuoso lift is covered by a standard 20-year drive train warranty, an unparalleled industry standard. This is a strong indicator of a portable lift’s expected durability and performance.
- The Ascension Virtuoso lift uses an electro-hydraulic mechanism to raise the passenger platform; this mechanism evenly supports the platform on both sides of the lift for maximum stability.
- The Ascension Virtuoso lift is also extremely quiet. It will not interrupt a performance or draw unnecessary attention to the passenger.
- The Ascension Virtuoso lift appeals to the comfort and dignity of the passenger by providing transparent sidewalls and gates on the platform. It is unobtrusive to an audience and gives the passenger a clear view of the surroundings. Children will also find the Ascension lift non-threatening and easy to use.
- The Ascension Virtuoso lift has an automatic dock plate to accommodate the passenger’s transition between the car and surface of the stage. This plate also enables the Ascension lift to be used in front of stages with protrusions (e.g. architectural decorations), uneven surfaces, or stages with a curved fascia.
- The Ascension Virtuoso lift features on-site compression if relocation through a 36” doorway is required.
Simply put, Ascension vertical portable wheelchair lifts are the safest, quietest, most attractive, most durable, and easiest-to-use portable lifts you can buy. |
