Mobility Products We Install in Hickory
Stair Lift Options: Straight & Curved
We install and service major stair lift brands with straight models for standard staircases and curved units for homes with landings or turns. Each stair lift is custom-measured to your specific staircase and equipped with safety sensors, smooth swivel seats, and battery backup systems that work during power outages.
Wheelchair & Vertical Platform Lifts
When ramps aren’t practical due to space constraints or significant elevation changes, vertical platform lifts provide safe wheelchair access between levels. These work particularly well for the split-level homes and raised porches common throughout Hickory’s established neighborhoods.
Portable & Modular Ramps for Hickory Weather
Our wheelchair ramps include lightweight portable aluminum options and permanent modular systems designed to withstand Hickory’s humid summers and occasional winter weather. All outdoor ramps feature slip-resistant surfaces and proper drainage to prevent ice buildup and standing water.
Bathroom & Grab-Bar Safety Upgrades
We install ADA-compliant grab bars near toilets, showers, and tubs, using proper anchoring techniques that support up to 250+ pounds. For families needing barrier-free bathing access, we also provide tub cut conversions and roll-in shower installations that eliminate dangerous step-over thresholds. Professional installation prevents common failures caused by improperly mounted bars, providing the stability you need for safe transfers.
Vehicle Lifts for Trips Beyond Catawba County
Vehicle lifts simplify transporting wheelchairs and scooters for medical appointments, family visits, and travel. We install both interior and exterior vehicle lift systems, matching the specific lift capacity and style to your vehicle make and the weight of your mobility device.
Patient Lifts: Ceiling & Floor-Mounted Transfer Aids
We install both ceiling-mounted track systems and portable floor-based patient lifts that provide safe, dignified transfers for individuals with limited mobility. Our assessment includes evaluating ceiling joist locations and load-bearing capacity for permanent installations, measuring clearances around beds and bathrooms, and discussing your specific transfer needs between wheelchairs, beds, toilets, and bathing areas.
