Accessibility Solutions & Platform Lift Installation
Creating Accessible Homes for Independent Living
At Shape Adaptations, we believe everyone should be able to move safely and independently within their home. Our specialist accessibility division provides complete mobility and access solutions, helping homeowners, families, occupational therapists, and local authorities create practical, accessible living environments.
Working alongside leading manufacturers including Wessex Lifts and Terry Lifts, we deliver complete platform lift installation projects from start to finish. Unlike many contractors who only install the lift equipment, we have the expertise to undertake all associated building, electrical, and access works required to transform a property into a safe and accessible environment.
Whether the requirement is to overcome an entrance threshold, improve wheelchair access, or provide safe movement between levels, we can provide a tailored solution to meet individual needs.

Tailored Accessibility Solutions
Every property and every user's needs are different. Our approach begins with understanding the individual requirements of the homeowner, family members, carers, occupational therapists, or project stakeholders.
We then develop a solution that balances:
- Safety
- Accessibility
- Ease of use
- Aesthetic appearance
- Property layout
- Future mobility requirements
Our goal is to create solutions that improve independence while integrating seamlessly with the existing property.
Recent Project Example
This recent installation demonstrates our ability to transform a property entrance into a safe and fully accessible access point.
The project involved the installation of a vertical platform lift to overcome a significant entrance level difference, allowing wheelchair users and those with limited mobility to access the property safely and independently. Alongside the lift installation, our team undertook the associated electrical and building works required to ensure a compliant and user-friendly solution.
The completed installation provides reliable, smooth access between levels while maintaining the appearance and practicality of the property.
