About
The Aritco PublicLift Access is our most popular lift model and has the safety features, low energy consumption and customisations you expect from a commercial lift. Larger platform sizes can be fully Part M and Equality Act compliant (please speak to a member of our team) and can be installed in less than one week.
These platform lifts are our most frequently installed models for schools, office blocks, hospitals, care homes and retail due to size, weight capacity and compliance. For external installations, see the Aritco PublicLift Access Outdoor option, and for goods and passenger, please see the Aritco PublicLift Access Goods option. If you require more information on lifts for wheelchairs or disabilities please read here.
Our patented screw and nut drive system offers a safe, quiet and environmentally friendly solution. Completely self-contained, the Aritco PublicLift Access eliminates the need for a separate machine room (read more about Machine Room Less Lifts here) or pump box housing, also ideal for restricted or listed buildings.
With a nationwide network of specialist engineers, a typical Aritco PublicLift Access installation takes just 3 days. The lift uses a modular, free standing frame structure to reduce delivery and installation time, needing only a load bearing footprint and no major building works on site.
All our lifts are supplied with a 12-month warranty as standard, and we offer a range of platform lift servicing options which can be tailored to suit your specific requirements.

HOW DO ELECTRIC PLATFORM LIFTS WORK?
Vertical platform lifts are contained within a shaft. This shaft has guide rails along two corners of the shaft which help to guide the carrier, which is generally an L shaped platform attached to a mast. When using an open platform lift, the walls remain in the same place as the platform raises or lowers.
There is a wide range of electric, hydraulic, and mechanical platform lifts, including enclosed cabin lifts, industrial vertical platform lifts, and even hidden platform lifts. Cabin platform lifts work in the same way as normal platform lifts but, rather than having an L shaped carrier, the platform is contained within a box to give the feel of a conventional lift.
In order to use an open platform lift, applying continuous pressure to the up or down buttons will allow the user to reach their destination. From the outside, using a single touch button will call the lift to the floor. For enclosed cabin lifts, rather than having to apply continuous pressure, a single touch button will be found inside that can be used to bring the user to the correct floor.
