The solution for using your quick release wheelchair is the LIFTKAR PT-A. The PT-A is a battery-powered, attendant-operated stair climber. The attendant needs only to guide the device while the LIFTKAR’s patented lifting mechanism effortlessly climbs up and down indoor and outdoor stairs whether they are carpeted, tile, or wood! Once the destination has been reached, reattach the wheels to the wheelchair and move around freely…no need to remove the LIFTKAR – it stays attached! Just raise the lifting unit and the wheelchair can be used normally!
The LIFTKAR PT-A can be easily disassembled into three parts that can be placed in any vehicle. Making it perfect to take on a visit to friends and family! The electric battery-powered unit is equipped with 3-speed settings and is capable of handling 300-500 steps before requiring a re-charge.
All purchases and rentals come with attendant training to ensure that the attendant is completely comfortable navigating the easy-to-learn device.
