If you need wheel chair or rollator access to your home and the incline is too high for a ramp , a VPL maybe the answer. We installed this Highland 2 Vertical Platform by Harmar in a garage. The Highland can rise up to 14'. It can provide access to decks, porches, garage entry, and even a second story. It provides a smooth ride. It also has an optional back up battery, for power outages. The VPL can be installed in one day, once the permit is obtained.
