A VPL is an incredibly safe option for your home accommodating your wheelchair if needed, using obstruction sensors as a failsafe for potential debris blocking the VPL, and having the ability to work during a power outage. There is more info on this subject in our blog article.

How long can a VPL last?

A residential lift can last for at least a couple years and certainly longer the better maintained it is. The only thing that does need the occasional replacement are the batteries if your particular unit uses them.

Will my VPL work during a Power Outage?
