Crow River Wheelchair Lifts – When Less Is Definitely More
Vangater Wheelchair Lifts

Vangater Style Lift
Crow River wheelchair lifts are also known by the name of its series, the Vangater. The different models of this brand name include the Vangater II, Minigater and Ultragater. All designs are compact as well as ground-clasping with the aim to conserve more space. An operating switch can be placed on the unit itself or in a hand control attached to a 12-foot cord. Also, each Crow River chair lift is equipped with a downstop/brake function for safety purposes. The wheelchair lifts can also be installed for side entry for vehicles which may be parked on tight spaces.
Crow River wheelchair lifts come in 27-inch, 29-inch and 30-inch platforms with the capacity to move 600 lbs at one go. This is possible due to the sturdy construction and durable material used to manufacture the wheelchair lifts. The Ultragater is made from aluminum, an element that contributes to the sturdiness and lightweight properties of the wheelchair. These are two essential features aimed to provide safety and convenience for users.
Being an electrical lift, Crow River wheel chair lifts are also installed with double safety features for emergency overrides in the event of a power failure. Finally, the best feature of this lift is probably its fast operation cycle, which is possible through a dual-post design. This allows the platform to take no more than 5 seconds to fold or unfold, and no longer than 10 seconds to lift. All in all, the Crow River wheelchair lifts are great for both light and heavy wheelchairs, making them a blessing for wheelchair users.
