Vertical Platform Lifts (VPL): Ideal for customers who need to travel between floors where stairs are not an option or for outdoor settings where height differences exist without steps ( such as from a garage to a main floor, or from ground level to a porch or deck).

Inclined Platform Lifts (IPL): Best suited for buildings with existing staircases, especially where space for a VPL is limited or where the staircase needs to remain usable by others when the lift is not in use.
