Old folks are getting a little difficult to climb 2 flights of stairs from car porch to enter house, height about 2 feet.

Anyone knows where I can get such type of wheelchair lift?

why not just build ramp, instead of lift? Cheaper also

2 feet ... hmm.. ramp sounds doable, sacrifice some space at the porch

Can buy aluminium ramp online too. And it is portable and lightweight.

I operate several old aged care homes, for 2ft height you’re better off constructing a ramp.
