The FlexStep lift combines a staircase and wheelchair platform lift within a single compact structure, helping provide accessible movement between levels where space is limited.
Designed for commercial, public and residential buildings, the FlexStep operates as a standard staircase for pedestrians before converting into a powered lifting platform when wheelchair access is required.
The system is commonly used within entrances, split-level interiors, listed buildings, retail environments, healthcare settings and refurbishment projects where separate staircases, ramps or larger lift systems may not be practical.
The FlexStep system can be installed within both new-build developments and existing buildings undergoing accessibility improvements or refurbishment work.
Available in configurations from 2 to 6 steps, the system supports lifting heights up to approximately 1295mm with multiple width options depending on building layout and access requirements.
Many buildings requiring wheelchair access do not have sufficient space for permanent ramps, large platform lifts or conventional passenger lifts.
The FlexStep is often used within entrances, mezzanine levels and split-floor layouts where accessibility improvements need to be achieved without major structural alteration or loss of usable floor space.
Because the staircase converts directly into a lifting platform, the system can help maintain normal pedestrian circulation while still supporting wheelchair access when required.

| Model – 2 Step | Recommended for lifting heights between 240 and 370 mm
The 2-step FlexStep model is intended for travels from 240 up to 370 mm. The 2-step model is built with a short lower step and extra long upper step, so the platform length is 1210 mm when transformed into wheelchair lift. Recommended for domestic use only. |

The 4-step FlexStep model is intended for travels up to 925mm. Travels higher than 740 mm requires the space saving “2-stop point” feature where the upper step on the FlexStep staircase is lower than the upper threshold and the threshold is actually step no 5 on the staircase. The 4-step model has a platform length of 1220 mm. The 4+1-model has a platform length of 1495 mm. |

The FlexStep system functions as both a conventional staircase and a wheelchair platform lift within a single compact structure. The staircase converts into a powered lifting platform when wheelchair access is required, helping reduce the need for separate ramps or larger lift systems.
The compact design makes the FlexStep suitable for entrances, split-level layouts and circulation areas where limited space may restrict the installation of conventional accessibility lifts or permanent ramp systems.
The FlexStep system can be installed within both new-build developments and existing buildings undergoing refurbishment or accessibility upgrades.
Available in configurations from 2 to 6 steps, the system supports lifting heights up to approximately 1295mm with multiple width options depending on building layout and access requirements.
The system is available in several platform widths including 700mm, 800mm, 900mm and 1000mm models.
Different staircase layouts and lifting configurations are available depending on travel height, circulation space and wheelchair access requirements.
The FlexStep system is suitable for both internal and external environments depending on project requirements and site conditions.
Weather-resistant construction options allow installation within entrances, external access routes and exposed public areas where accessibility improvements are required.
The FlexStep system includes multiple integrated safety systems designed to support safe day-to-day operation within commercial, public and residential environments.
The system is available with a range of configurable finishes, flooring materials, handrails and colour options to help integrate the lift within both modern and traditional building environments.
This makes the FlexStep particularly suitable for retail, hospitality, healthcare and heritage settings where visual integration is important.
Suitable for Accessibility Upgrade Projects
The FlexStep system is commonly used within buildings where accessibility improvements are required without significant structural alteration.
Typical applications include listed buildings, retail premises, hospitality venues, offices, healthcare environments and split-level public spaces.
Functions as both a conventional staircase and a wheelchair platform lift within a single compact system.
Suitable for buildings where limited space prevents the installation of separate stairs, ramps or larger accessibility lifts.
Can be installed within internal or external environments depending on building layout and project requirements.
Often used within refurbishment and accessibility upgrade projects where structural alteration needs to be minimised.
