While ramps are a simple and effective way to improve access, they are not always the most practical option - especially where space is limited or the height difference is too great. At Fortuna, we offer a range of alternatives to ensure safe, comfortable access for everyone.
Platform Lifts (Step Lifts)
A platform lift is often the best solution when a ramp would need to be too long. These lifts provide smooth, vertical travel for wheelchair and scooter users and can be installed indoors or outdoors.
Stairlifts
For individuals who can walk or transfer but struggle with stairs, a stairlift provides safe, powered travel along the staircase. They are quick to install and ideal for domestic settings.
Through-Floor Lifts
Where full wheelchair access is required inside the home, a through-floor lift offers effortless movement between levels without the need for a traditional lift shaft.
Ceiling Track Hoists
In situations where moving a person manually is difficult or unsafe, ceiling track hoists provide a safe, dignified way to transfer between bed, chair, toilet, bath, or other areas within the home.
Half-Steps, Handrails and Other Aids
For those with mild mobility issues, simple solutions such as half-steps or handrails can make existing entrances safer without major alterations.
Regrading or Alternative Entrances
Sometimes the best option is to adjust pathways or use a naturally level entrance, providing step-free access without mechanical equipment.
If you’re unsure which option is right for your property or client, the Fortuna team can advise on the safest, most cost-effective solution.
