The Platform Only Lift
Gracechurch Street, London
This refurbishment in the heart of London required a stylish wheelchair platform lift to blend into its surroundings. This Sesame System does not have the standard retracting stairs as a grand staircase is located in the center of the reception area. You will notice a fixed hand hold button station permanently on view. The architects opted for a permanent hand held button post rather than a hidden rising button post so the users would be able to find the wheelchair platform lift. The wheelchair user would call the platform lift by swiping their issued swipe cards, once on the platform they would then press and hold the up or down button on the hand held post to reach the desired level.
