What is a Multi-Lift and What Makes It So Unique?
The Multi-Lift is the first multi-purpose lifting and transfer device. A single 23 lb. lift assembly will serve in multiple locations, in a broad range of circumstances, in conjunction with a variety of slings, accessories, and mounting brackets, Here are the Major categories that a single Multi-Lift can cover:
-Transfer Lift for Cars/Vans- the Multi-Lift can be used for almost all cars, trucks, minivans, and full-sized vans. Installation is available for front door, driver or passenger side for nearly all types of vehicles, for cargo doors on vans, and even rear door for certain cars and trucks. The lift can be used either by the user if that person has sufficient dexterity and strength to operate a lift, or by an assistant.
– Transfer Lift for the Home/Bath- the Multi-Lift in the home is used in conjunction with a wall mount or mobile stand on casters in the home. It is designed for use in many transfer locations such as bed to wheelchair, wheelchair to sofa, or even where there is a level change in the floor. In the bathroom, the Multi-Lift is ideal for transferring to the commode or to transfer in and out of the shower or bath. The U-shaped “Backsaver” sling means the user does not have to be lifted in order to put the sling on. It’s U-shaped design facilitates use on the commode and in the shower.
Scooter/Wheelchair Lifting Device- The Multi-Lift, with it’s rugged construction designed for transferring people, is also ideal for transferring your scooter or other mobility device. This is accomplished by installing a second mounting post in the rear or cargo door of the vehicle and attaching a special hook or hooks to your mobility device. Our optional motorized swing arm will allow the Multi-Lift to work in rear or side door of full-sized or minivans, and even many cars! The low cost of adding a second mounting bracket and the high weight capacity of the Multi-Lift make it an attractive solution to transporting your wheelchair or scooter.
