WHY CHOOSE ASCENSION?
Designed and manufactured with pride in Tucson, Arizona, USA
Ascension lifts have been ensuring the safety and dignity of individuals with disabilities for over two decades.
Design excellence, precision manufacturing, and unmatched customer service are our hallmarks. All Ascension
lifts are designed and made in the USA.
Revolutionary innovations make Ascension the premier design choice for building owners, facility managers,
architects... anyone who wants uncompromising performance and aesthetics. There is no comparison: Ascension
wheelchair lifts are the safest, quietest, most attractive, most durable, and easiest-to-use lifts you can own.
Portable Lift Benefits
Ascension portable lifts are the preeminent choice for facilities that need flexible and convenient ADA access, often
in multiple locations. Use the lift when and where you need it, then store it away until your next event. Ascension
manufactures world-class ADA compliant portable wheelchair lifts with no machine tower or access ramp.
Permanent Lift Benefits
Ascension permanently lifts provide accessibility when you need a superb permanent solution. In addition to
Ascension’s legendary looks, performance, and reliability, installation is straightfoward. The lift installs directly
on the existing floor with no "pit" for installation, and yet it needs no access ramp, thus preserving your precious
floor space.
Lifts vs. Ramps
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires one foot of ramp for every inch of vertical travel. For example,
a stage that is 24 inches high requires a 24-foot ramp. Ascension lifts take up far less floor space than ramps,
enabling you to maximize every valuable square foot of your facility.
Customer Support
Every new Ascension lift comes with a 20-year drive train warranty.
Backed by responsive customer support teams, portable and
permanent models alike are virtually maintenance-free (codes for
permanent lifts typically require annual inspections).
Project Support
Whether considering how to use a portable unit across multiple
locations or how to incorporate a permanent lift into a comprehensive
building renovation program, we gladly review your specific project
requirements. We offer complete architectural, engineering, and
project management support to help you keep your project on track.

HOW IS THE ASCENSION EXPERIENCE DIFFERENT?
Ascension lifts are the premium choice when you want more than the status quo. World-class venues and small
organizations alike rely on Ascension’s renowned performance, appearance, and customer service.
Open Lines of Sight
Ascension lifts have low profiles and/or generous clear window area
to maintain lines of sight. Our unique dual-cylinder hydraulic drive
systems are fully contained within both sides of the Protégé and
Virtuoso, and in the landing face cabinet of the Clarity. Patrons in
the area can see what’s on stage or across the lobby, and lift users
have a view of their surroundings.
Floor-Level Entry
Lift users enter Ascension lifts directly from floor level with no ramp,
thanks to the ultra-slim platform floor that rests directly on the existing
slab. Permanent models need little or no demolition for installation.
Permanent Protégé with Upper Landing Gate
High Reliability
All Ascension lift models come with a standard 20-year drive train and 5-year parts warranty, setting an unparalleled
industry benchmark. Superior customer service rounds out the Ascension experience, ensuring decades of
satisfaction from your Ascension lift.
Quiet Environments
Ascension lifts are designed to be used while events are in progress. Quiet
hydraulic drive systems translate to seamless stage performances, subdued
lobby environments, and scholarly educational settings. Passengers use the
lift without attracting undue attention.
Uncompromising Safety
Safety concerns? Rest assured! Every Ascension lift comes with a variety of
standard safety features. From the Protégé’s multiple safety sensors, to the
Virtuoso’s rigid full safety skirting, to the Clarity’s full enclosure, you can rely
on Ascension to maintain the highest level of safety in your facility.
Child-friendly
Independent Use
Every Ascension lift meets ADA requirements for independent use by
individuals with disabilities.
