Stannah Xtralift Passenger Lift

Traction-drive passenger lift range, capacities from 450kg (6 person) to 2000kg (33 person, special configurations to 45), for multi-storey care home buildings requiring a fully compliant passenger lift.

Why care homes use this

A care home passenger lift is essential accessibility infrastructure, not an optional fitting -- residents and equipment (wheelchairs, hoists, beds for transfers) must be able to move between floors, and lift failure or end-of-life replacement is one of the highest-impact building failures a care home can experience operationally. Stannah is one of the longest-established UK lift manufacturers with a substantial care and healthcare sector installed base, and the Xtralift range spans from a small 6-person unit suitable for a converted period building through to a bed-lift-capable 33-person unit for a larger purpose-built home.
