Home › Incline Platform Lifts

The Executive is a hydraulic, scissor-frame platform lift providing access between two levels over a travel distance of up to one metre — suitable for wheelchair or ambulant users, with capacity for a user plus attendant, indoors or outdoors.

Incline Platform Lifts

WhatIstheElevateGlide?

The Elevate Glide is an incline platform lift — sometimes called an incline platform stairlift — that travels along a rail fixed directly to an existing staircase using a rack and pinion drive system. Unlike a conventional stairlift, which seats the user on a small fold-down chair, the Glide carries the user on a platform together with their wheelchair or mobility aid. No transfer out of the wheelchair is required.

The Glide is suitable for both straight and curved staircases — the rail is custom-fabricated to follow the exact profile of the staircase it is fitted to, with a minimum rail length of 500mm and a maximum of 35 metres, covering everything from a short domestic staircase to a long commercial flight.

Step Lifts

WhatIstheExecutive1mSteplift?

The Executive is a step lift built around a hydraulic, scissor-frame platform, designed to provide access between two levels with up to one metre of vertical travel. The pump unit is integrated directly within the lift itself, rather than requiring a separate control unit location — this reduces the risk of vandalism, and means less builders' work and a faster overall installation, typically completed within a day.

The Executive is rated for both wheelchair and ambulant users, with capacity for a user plus an attendant. It's suitable for both internal and external locations, and for domestic homes as well as public access buildings, manufactured by Pollock Lifts — a UK lift access specialist operating since 1983.

Ask a question

What is the maximum load capacity of the Executive 1m Steplift?

The Executive has a load capacity of 280kg, with capacity for a user plus an attendant.

What's the difference between Through Entry, Adjacent Entry and Pit Mounted?

Through Entry has an on-board ramp and the user travels straight across, entering and exiting on opposite sides. Adjacent Entry uses a fixed ramp at the lower level, with entry and exit on the same side. Pit Mounted sits within a prepared pit and needs no ramp at all.

Can the Executive be installed outdoors?

Yes. The Executive is suitable for both internal and external locations, with IP67-rated switching to protect the controls from water.

How long does installation take?

Pollock states a typical installation takes one day with minimal building work, and the unit can be relocated later if your needs change.

What warranty does the Executive come with?

The Executive comes with 12 months parts and labour as standard, with extended warranties of up to 5 years available covering service and maintenance costs.

Is the Executive suitable for public access buildings?

Yes. The Executive is designed for both domestic and public access use, manufactured to BS 6440:2011 and the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
