Easy Installation
The APL8 Screw Drive Platform Lift is designed for fast, straightforward installation, requiring only a shallow pit of just 50mm. Where a pit is not possible, the lift can alternatively be installed without a pit, using a small access ramp at ground floor level if required. Supplied with a structure, the APL8 eliminates the need for a traditional lift shaft, significantly reducing structural work. As a result, the lift can typically be installed within three to five days, making it a quick and efficient alternative to conventional lift solutions.
