FAQ
S-Lift questions
Which code covers a platform lift in Canada?
It falls under CSA B355, and in Alberta and Saskatchewan a lift in a private home is exempt from elevating-device permits.
Why is a platform lift so much slower?
Screw drives are built for 0.15 m/s, which keeps them simple and self-locking.
Can it go outside?
Yes, in its weather-sealed version, with drainage and snow clearance planned around it.
