New movemanSKG platform lift the aesthetic choice

Introducing the new movemanSKG Part M compliant H400 platform lift. This is a unit with a customisable appearance suitable to meet vertical mobility requirements in public and private buildings. It is a perfect solution for wheelchair users looking to improve accessibility in their homes, as well as companies that need to comply with the Equality Act.

First, customers need to pick their car model from one of 13 standard designs. These include ‘Inox’, which has a contemporary stainless steel finish and ‘Parade’ with its vibrant colours and patterns.

There are six ceiling types with different lighting configurations, from conventional LED spotlights through to a quirky ‘bubble’ look. Customers can specify the finish to the car panels, floor covering, car door panels and landing doors. These include stainless steel, plastic laminate, painted and PVC. Each comes in a range of colours and styles: Something to suit any application. The H400 can be supplied with its own steel shaft to a choice of colours and can also be glazed on all four sides, adding to the unit’s aesthetic appearance.

H400 carries up to 400kg and is available in different sizes and footprints to suit space limitations. It has powered two-speed sliding doors that have infrared safety edges to prevent closure in the presence of people, children’s buggies or objects: safer than simple photocells. The doors have the option of two-hour fire protection.

Something else that stands H400 apart from other platform lifts is the advanced hydraulic technology. This comprises a power unit with a dry motor (not oil immersed), electronic valve with digital technology and biodegradable eco-fluid lubrication. This reduces energy consumption to the same as a standard household appliance and reduces the lift’s environmental impact, making it environmentally friendly.

Gary Bound, one of movemanSKG’s sales engineers, is delighted: “Since introducing the H400 into our product range, we have been very pleased with the interest it has generated. Architects and consultants are able to offer their clients a cost effective platform lift solution even in private houses.”

In the event of power failure H400 is equipped with auto lowering for safety reasons - doors open and remain open until full power is restored. As a further incentive to potential customers, movemanSKG is offering the H400 with two inclusive service visits in the first year of ownership.
