It has an industry-leading network of trained professionals who configure and install these products and are instru- mental in ensuring compliance with code requirements. Many times, when specifying a lift for installation, there are multiple layers of regulations to consider. In some cases, worthy projects are jeopardized because strict adherence to regulations is not possible. A great example of this is a project that was coordinated by Mike Doyle of Garaventa USA in Manchester, New Hampshire. It was determined that installing an inclined platform lift would be the only practical accessibility solution for a Boston woman trapped in her home. She uses a wheelchair due to terminal ALS, but has a flight of stairs leading up to her front door. An inclined platform lift to travel over the front stairs was the obvious solu- tion. However, the lower landing of the lift would have to be anchored to a public sidewalk. Because it need- ed to attach to the brickwork, three variances were required from the State of Massachusetts before the lift project could proceed. Often, this kind of red tape can delay a project for weeks, months, years or indefinitely. Fortunately, Susan Kron had Doyle and Garaventa Lift in her corner. He worked diligently with the state to present the Custom, Quality, Quick – Assemble On Site Cabinet Boxes Elias Woodwork's AOS Elite cabinet boxes allow you to create a custom kitchen without the added expenses of making your own or shipping fully assembled ones.
