Modern Access Solutions

Overcoming accessibility barriers with dignity and ease.

 With an increasing focus on accessibility and providing equal opportunities for all, building owners and homeowners alike can utilise step lifts as a discreet, effective way of providing modern access solutions. Instead of navigating steep ramps or relying on the assistance of others, a step lift provides a safe, dignified alternative for those with impaired mobility.

As the name indicates, step lifts are designed to be a direct alternative to traditional steps, safely carrying mobility-impaired individuals and wheelchair users across short vertical distances. They constitute the perfect way of navigating split-level spaces, entrance porches, and outdoor decking areas without strain or the need for assistance.

COMPACT MOBILITY

Step lifts engineered for short travel.

Sheridan Lifts offers highly dependable models of step lifts designed to tackle different vertical heights. Whether you need a compact residential solution or a heavy-duty commercial lift, we have the right fit for your property.

SHORT RANGE
The 'Classic' model

A highly compact step lift designed to carry individuals across vertical heights of up to 1 meter. Perfect for residential porches or small split-level interior floors.

EXTENDED RANGE
3m Step Lifts

For more expansive level changes, our 2m and 3m models provide smooth, reliable vertical travel. Ideal for higher outdoor decking areas or raised commercial entranceways.

ALL WEATHER
Outdoor Step Lifts

Engineered with durable, weather-resistant materials, these lifts are perfectly suited for outdoor environments, ensuring safe, reliable access to your building all year round.

Accessibility designed around your exact needs.

Every accessibility challenge requires a bespoke, consultative approach. From the initial survey of your entranceway or split-level floor to the final commissioning of the lift, our engineering team ensures the specification is meticulously planned. We focus on integrating safe, compact lifting technology into your property cleanly and with absolute minimal disruption.

01 / Specification

Industry-leading capacity and safety.

Ensuring you choose the right step lift is critical for long-term safety. Both our 1m and 3m options boast industry-leading maximum weight capacities of 280kg and 500kg respectively. They feature fully integrated control panels, robust security gates, and anti-slip flooring, making them completely safe for heavy wheelchairs and standing passengers alike.

02 / Installation

Fast, respectful installation in your space.

Because step lifts only travel short distances, they require very little building work compared to traditional passenger lifts. Our directly employed engineers provide a fast, clean installation process, often completing the work in just a few days. Whether we are installing indoors or outdoors, we ensure minimal disruption to your home or business.
