Inclined Platform Lifts (IPL) allows for barrier free, up and down transportation, for a
person in wheelchair on a flight of straight stairs. A rail system is mounted alongside
the stairs to guide the movement of the inclined moving platform. These lifts are
manufactured as per CSA-B355. This lift is well suited to environments where an elevator
or vertical lift cannot be easily accommodated, due to limited space and hence this
accessibility lift travels on the top of the flight of stairs.
Standard Product Features with Available Options are:
- Applied code: CAN/CSA-B355-09
- Load capacity: 250 kg (550 lb)

Key Installation Requirements
- Step width to be minimum required in line with building and fire code
- Footprint from the initial step: overall width to be 1194 mm (47”) x length of
1829 mm (72”) (may vary and to be as per the selected platform size)
- When safety arm is operated, vertical space of 1829 (72”) space should be made
available
- Head room clearance where the platform is positioned for boarding shall be not less
than 2000 mm (79”)
- It should be ensured by a structure engineer that the supporting staircase or the
side wall are adequate to support the loads imposed by the lift equipment.
- Rail of the Inclined Platform Lift could be secured to the sidewall or anchoring
posts could be secured to the staircase and the rail of the lift to be tied to these
anchoring posts. Structural engineer to determine
