An easy, adaptable solution, the Stiltz Trio is big enough to accommodate a standard wheelchair or walker.
The Stiltz Trio Elevator is an innovative wheelchair lift that has been designed to answer wheelchair users’ accessibility needs in the home. Larger than the Stiltz Duo Elevator but still compact, the Trio can fit a standard-sized wheelchair and is ideal for users with a walker or rollator.
The wheelchair elevator allows you to live independently at home and is the perfect alternative to a stairlift. Its larger interior cab space and heavier weight capacity means the wheelchair lift can carry an extra person, easily transport luggage and carry other bigger items. There is no product on the wheelchair home elevators market that can be fitted virtually anywhere in the home like the Stiltz Trio.
Unlike other wheelchair lifts, the Trio does not use noisy hydraulics or vacuum systems as it is powered by a quiet electric motor drive system. It plugs straight into a regular outlet and delivers flawless performance. The wheelchair lift does not require load bearing walls as the elevator uses the unique Stiltz dual rail technology which creates a self-supporting structure.
The Stiltz Trio Elevator offers unrivaled flexibility in terms of placement in the home. It can be installed in just one day with minimal building work and disruption. From family room to bedroom or hallway to study, the Trio wheelchair lift requires a remarkably small space so the choice can be yours.
The Trio Wheelchair Elevator Selection
Stiltz Trio Classic – the Trio is a larger and heavier weight load version of the Duo Classic. Although compact it is still big enough to accommodate a standard-sized wheelchair. It is also an ideal wheelchair elevator for anyone using a walker or rollator.
Stiltz Trio Vista – has solid side walls and is fitted with a clear back made from structural polycarbonate at the back to give it a contemporary look. The Trio Vista allows natural light to flood in if the wheelchair lift is placed in front of or close to a window. It offers all the same features as the Classic.
Stiltz Trio Thru Car – allows users to enter and exit from both sides of the elevator. This is made possible by the unique Stiltz dual rail technology. There is no other wheelchair home elevator of this kind on the market that is capable of having a double entry or thru car configuration. It offers all the same features as the Classic.

Trio Wheelchair Elevator Specifications
- Standard Finishes A neutral cream exterior and door with a beige interior lining color.
- Half Height Door The door is interlocked and is made to match the finish of the lift.
- 2 X Remote Controls Call and send the lift remotely and also use it to move heavy or awkward items between floors.
- Two Year Warranty All Stiltz home elevators carry a standard two-year parts warranty.
- Internal LED Downlights These are programmed to turn on once the user has entered the lift and remain on for the entire journey.
- Battery Back Up System If there is a power outage while using the lift it will descend to the lower level of the home and wait until the power comes back on.
- Full Height Light Curtain Light Curtain when fitted with half height door.
- Interior Telephone In the very unlikely event that the lift stops while you are travelling in it, help is just a phone call away.
- Fold Down Seat This is a popular option selected by customers for the short trip between floors.
- Interior Grab Rail Offers increased security for the occupants of the lift.
- Full Height Door An interlocked door that replaces the half-height door and light curtain – a no cost option.
- Full Height Light Curtain A full-height motion sensor is situated at the entrance of our elevators (unless a full height door is chosen). If this barrier is crossed the lift will immediately stop.
- Safety Lid Plug This crucial feature plugs the aperture in the floor when the elevator is in the downstairs position. It is strong enough to stand on and you can place your original flooring on top to blend in.
- Key Switch Operation This feature allows the owner to isolate the lift if the need arises. This is commonly used when going away on vacation or when children are around.
- Top & Bottom Safety Pans Using our obstruction sensing covers, a Stiltz Home Elevator can detect objects above or below the lift, causing it to immediately stop.
- Hold-To-Run Controls Operating a Stiltz residential elevator requires constant pressure to the controls. This allows the user to ‘drive’ the lift and feel in total control.
- Weight Limit Sensors Our Trio elevators are limited to 485lb (220kg). The lift detects anything exceeding this limit and will not travel.
- Out Of Balance Sensors Sensors will detect if the lift is ever out of balance and prevent the unit from travelling.
- Fall Arrest Mechanism This patented system prevents the car from falling in the unlikely event of the steel ropes going slack.
- Emergency Stop Button This button is front and center for the user in the event of an emergency.
- Over Speed Detection The elevator uses an optical sensor to detect the speed of travel. If this increases beyond a certain speed, the sensor will stop the lift from travelling in that direction.
