Platform Lifts in India - Vertical & Inclined Wheelchair Lifts for Every Home
A platform lift carries a wheelchair user, senior, or person with limited mobility straight between floors on a level platform — no transfers, no stair-climbing, no major construction. Vin Grace platform lifts are engineered for Indian homes, offices, hospitals, and public buildings, with free site survey and installation across India.
- Our Range
Types of Platform Lifts We Offer
From compact indoor vertical lifts to weatherproof inclined platform lifts for outdoor staircases — matched to your building, budget, and daily use.
Vertical Wheelchair Platform Lift
Rises straight up beside a short flight of steps or a split level. Minimal pit (50–150mm), no machine room needed in most models — ideal for porches, split-level homes, and offices.
Platform Wheelchair Stairlift
Safe, code-compliant vertical platform lift — full wheelchair access between floors or level changes
- How It Works
How Does a Platform Lift Work?
A wheelchair-accessible platform that moves along a fixed rail or shaft — no transferring out of the wheelchair, no assistance required for most models.
Roll onto the platform
The wheelchair rolls directly onto a level, non-slip platform through a folding ramp or gate.
Safety gates close
Automatic safety arms, gates, or ramps close and lock before the platform begins to move.
Platform travels the rail or shaft
A quiet hydraulic, screw-drive, or rack-and-pinion system carries the platform vertically or along the staircase incline.
Platform folds or parks away
Most models fold flat or park discreetly at the top, leaving stairs or floor space clear for others.
- Why It Matters
Benefits of a Wheelchair Platform Lift
Stay seated, no transfer
The user remains in their own manual or powered wheelchair the entire journey — safer and more dignified than being carried.
Minimal construction
Most models need little to no pit and no machine room, so a platform lift can usually be added without major renovation.
Higher load capacity
Rated for 250–400 kg — enough for a powered wheelchair, user, and an attendant together, unlike a standard chair lift.
Indoor and outdoor options
Weatherproof outdoor models handle Indian monsoons and heat for entrances, porches, and terraces.
Keeps stairs usable
Inclined platform lifts fold flat against the wall, so the staircase stays fully open for the rest of the household.
Battery backup included
Continues operating safely during power cuts — essential reliability for Indian homes and hospitals.
- Buyer's Guide
How to Choose the Right Platform Lift
A quick way to narrow down the right model for your building, budget, and the person who will use it.
Vertical or inclined?
A vertical platform lift suits a short, straight rise (porch, split level, single floor). An inclined platform lift suits an existing straight staircase where you want to keep the original stairs intact.
Indoor or outdoor use?
Outdoor models need weatherproofing for rain, heat, and dust. Confirm the IP rating and enclosure before buying for an entrance, porch, or terrace.
Check before buying
Confirm travel height/rise, platform size vs your wheelchair, rated load capacity, pit depth availability, power backup, and after-sales service coverage in your city.

- Comparison
Platform Lift vs Stairlift vs Stair Climbing Wheelchair
Not sure which mobility solution fits your situation? Here’s a quick comparison.
Platform Lift
Best for wheelchair users who want to stay seated with no transfer. Higher load capacity than a chair lift, fits one staircase or floor rise permanently.
Stairlift
Best for ambulatory seniors who can transfer to a seat. Lower cost, faster install, but requires transferring out of the wheelchair.
Stair Climbing Wheelchair
Best for portability — no fixed installation, travels between buildings, but needs a trained attendant to operate.
