Accumar Track Lifts

Accumar Track Lifts are a good choice where the bank is firm and the run is reasonably short. They do not need as large of an upper entry deck as Cable lifts require. They remain level throughout the trip. Track Lifts fit certain kinds of spaces best, such as tight city lots. They can be used for wheelchair access, frieght, and for general passanger runs. With a canopy and full height sliding door they are comfortable in inclement weather, and can be partially or fully enclosed.
