Choosing a home lift is a crucial decision for any home, and we know that everyone has questions. To help you make a more informed choice, we’ve compiled answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about our home lifts.
Whether you’re curious about installation, power options, or maintenance, we’ve got you covered!
How Are the Lifts Powered?
Our home lifts are powered by a standard electrical connection, similar to most household appliances. In fact, our solutions are more efficient than the average toaster! With no need for any special wiring or modifications, making them an easy addition to your home.
How Long Does Installation Take? Is It a Lengthy and Messy Experience?
The installation of our home lifts is quick and efficient, and it is usually completed within just two days. Our team of professionals ensures that the process is as smooth and clean as possible, with minimal disruption to your daily routine. There’s no need for extensive renovations or structural changes, allowing you to enjoy your new lift without the hassle.
What Happens During Load Shedding?
Our home lifts come with a built-in battery backup system, providing peace of mind during load shedding or power outages. This system allows you to continue using the lift for a limited number of trips even when the main power is down, ensuring uninterrupted mobility within your home.
Is There a Product Warranty?
Yes, we offer a comprehensive 12-month warranty that covers both the home lift and its parts. With offices in Cape Town and Johannesburg, representatives nationwide, and fully stocked warehouses, assistance is always just a phone call away. Our dedicated team is ready to provide support and ensure your lift operates smoothly throughout its warranty period and beyond.
Do Lifts Need Regular Servicing?
Our home lifts require just one annual service, which includes a thorough inspection of all electronic and mechanical parts. During this service, our technicians ensure that all safety features are functioning perfectly, providing you with ongoing reliability. Regular servicing is essential to maintain the lift’s performance and safety standards.
Where Can a Lifta Home Lift Be Installed?
Thanks to their compact size and unique rail system, Lifta Home Lifts can be installed in a variety of locations, including garages, passages, living rooms, bedrooms, and even braai rooms. Their versatile design ensures they integrate smoothly into your home’s layout.
How Safe Are Lifta Home Lifts?
Safety is a top priority for us. Our lifts are equipped with safety sensors above and below the car to detect obstructions and stop the lift if necessary. A light curtain sensor adds another layer of protection by detecting anything crossing the lift’s path. Should any imbalance occur, our safety sensors will prevent the lift from operating, and a user-friendly light panel helps with quick diagnosis and resolution of any issues.
How Does the Lifta Home Lift Operate?
Lifta Home Lifts are designed for user convenience, featuring a “hold to run” button that allows users to control the lift’s movement easily. Removing your hand from the button stops the lift immediately, ensuring total control.
Our Home Lifts come with two compact remote controls, allowing you to call the lift to any floor you are on. These wireless remotes provide convenient access, enabling you to, for instance, keep one in your car to call the lift to the garage for easy unloading of groceries when you arrive home. We also supply cradles for each remote, which can be mounted next to the lift if preferred for easy accessibility.
Are Lifta Home Lifts Noisy?
No, Lifta Home Lifts operate quietly with an audible noise level of less than 48 decibels—comparable to light rainfall. Our lifts do not use noisy hydraulics, ensuring a smooth and quiet ride every time.
How Much Does a Lifta Home Lift Cost?
Costs vary based on individual needs and home configurations. Our sales consultants are available to visit your home, assess your requirements, and provide a personalised, no-obligation quote.
