The majority of our work is with occupational therapists and other health care professionals responsible for commissioning mobility equipment on behalf of clients. Here we provide answers to a range of common questions. However, it is always worth calling us on 01293 785185 if you have a particular client or situation in mind, because while brochures and web sites can detail the features and options for various lifts, more importantly we have experience of how they work in practice. There is also our showroom which is available for health care professionals to view on their own or with clients, where we can demonstrate a variety of lifts in action. Our office is open from 9am to 5.30pm from Mondays to Fridays. |

| The feedback we get from OTs
is that they like: Our independence - the number of manufacturers we deal with means we can suit a wide range of people, because each lift has different features and options, and we can be impartial in recommending the right model. Our choice of lifts - so if a stairlift proves impractical, we can offer other options – a vertical lift, for instance. The service we provide – our sales staff are not commission-based, so they are able to act in an advisory capacity and never pressurise the client to buy. The fact that we manage the whole process including the use of regular sub-contractors for preparatory building and electrical work. |

| What if my client’s needs change? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| If you decide your client needs a stairlift, but an on-site visit proves it’s not practical, we can offer an alternative such as a vertical lift without you having to begin the commissioning process all over again. We can also offer external access lifts and ceiling hoists if and when they become appropriate. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
