Compactly designed wheelchair lifts offer worship attendees with mobility challenges full access to elevated areas.
One challenge for church, synagogue and other religious facility designers and managers tasked with meeting the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) has been offering full access to elevated areas in centers of faith.
Although wheelchair lifts are available to assist those with mobility issues, most are limited to a 60-inch or less maximum vertical lift, which is sufficient for a stage, but not a balcony or second floor.
Today's industry advances promise quieter, ADA-compliant wheelchair lifts that offer extended vertical rise, as well as dignity to their users with minimal installation requirements.
