Portable Lifts for Accessing Outdoor Stages

Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona, not unlike most Universities across the country, had an outdoor stage for various functions.  Accessibility for handicapped students and other individuals in wheelchairs had always been a problem. There were also other indoor and outdoor areas on campus where there was no wheelchair access.

Project Constraints:
• Stage was located outdoors, with no adjacent storage
• The lift needed to be portable to access other elevated platforms on Campus
• Most outdoor areas had no access to electrical power
• The lift needed to reliably work outdoors in any weather condition

The Solution
Adaptive provided a manually powered Mobilift CX wheelchair lift. The Mobilift CX is very lightweight and comes standard with it’s own wheels and casters. It is also made of aluminum and stainless steel, so outdoor use or weather is not problematic. As the CX has no motor and does not require any batteries or electricity, it is extremely reliable and can be counted on to work every time.

The Outcome
The Associated Students of ASU purchased the lift and were able to provide wheelchair access to numerous venues – both indoors and outdoors. The lift could be easily rolled to areas where it was needed, and with weighing only 268 pounds, it was very easy to put into the back of any size pick up and taken to venues that were further away.

The lift was delivered completely assembled, allowing it to go to work immediately, where it has been working ever since.
