Safe, Convenient Stair Transport Without Leaving the Wheelchair
The Atlas Portable Wheelchair Stairlift by Mobile Stairlift is our newest innovation into transporting individuals using a wheelchair or patient transport device up or down a flight of stairs, offering a practical solution similar to a portable lift for elderly individuals in multi-level homes and care environments.
Designed to accommodate a wheelchair or transport chair with seat sizes of 16" 18" or 20" widths.
The Atlas Wheelchair Lift offers wheelchair users the added ability to remain in their wheelchair reducing the need to transfer in and out of the wheelchair to the stair climbing chair lift, making it a practical alternative to a mechanical lift for patients in multi-level environments. To prevent injury, it is recommended that the operator be properly trained in the Stairlift's use, and that they first practice descending stairs without a rider.
Designed for Safer, Easier Wheelchair Stair Transport
- Designed for Wheelchair Users: Allows riders to remain fully seated in their own wheelchair during stair transport, eliminating the need for transfers before or after use.
- Safe Wheelchair Securing System: Integrated wheelchair frame clasps, wheel supports, and seatbelt restraints securely lock the wheelchair in place for stable and controlled stair travel.
- Powered Up & Down Stair Movement: Motorized anti-slip rubber tracks provide smooth, controlled ascent and descent on stairs without the need for manual lifting.
- Straight Staircase Compatibility: Designed specifically for straight staircases and operates safely on wood, carpet, tile, concrete, and most standard indoor and outdoor stair surfaces.
- Flat Surface Transport Function: A four-wheel base allows the Atlas to transport wheelchair users across flat surfaces before and after stair travel for seamless mobility.
- Operator-Controlled Handle System: Adjustable push handles provide caregivers with full control and maneuverability during both flat-ground movement and stair operation.
- Anti-Slip Track & Wheel Lock Safety: Track tension controls, rear wheel brakes, and handlebar locking mechanisms provide multiple layers of protection for both riders and operators.
- No Transfer Required: Eliminates one of the highest-risk mobility challenges by allowing users to remain safely seated in their wheelchair throughout the entire transport process.
- Home, Facility & Emergency Use Ready: Ideal for private homes, assisted living communities, rehabilitation centers, hospitals, schools, public buildings, and emergency evacuation situations.
