Commercial Inclined Platform Lifts
Inclined platform lifts provide safe, reliable stair access for wheelchair users — allowing them to remain in their chair while moving between levels.
Mounted directly along existing staircases, these lifts are ideal for commercial buildings and public spaces where vertical lifts aren’t practical due to space, layout, or cost.
At Pace Accessibility, we supply and install custom-built inclined platform lifts across the UK — delivering compliant, low-disruption solutions that support independence without major structural changes.

Best Applications for Inclined Platform Lifts
Inclined lifts shine in areas where preserving the original staircase is essential. They are commonly found in listed buildings, narrow hallways, or properties with curved or multi-flight staircases.
With no lift shaft required, they’re perfect when space is tight or vertical travel is limited. Whether indoors or outdoors, they provide reliable access for wheelchair users without compromising design integrity.

Inclined platform lifts are designed to be space-efficient. When not in use, the platform and rails can often be folded neatly against the wall to keep the stairway clear. Our team will assess your staircase during a free site survey to determine the most suitable model and configuration.
