Guide Rails

The platform lift travels up and down the stairway along two guide rails – an
upper rail and a lower rail. If the gradient is less than 20 degrees, a third rail
(horizontal rail) is required to stabilize the platform. Horizontal rail sections may
be required at half-landings or stop positions. A sample installation layout is
shown below.
