About the Bruno VPL-3210B Vertical Platform Lift

Battery power is standard here. Bruno says its battery option keeps working in a power outage and gives several round trips without recharging. The VPL-3210B is the DC-powered model, with an internal battery charger.

Under the platform, a 1 hp motor drives a 1 1/4” Acme screw with a bronze nut and a bronze safety back up nut, and the lift travels at up to 10 ft/min. For emergencies, an external lockable keyed switch lowers the platform by means of a separate battery located inside the electrical enclosure.

Adjustable upper and lower limit switches and an upper final limit switch are part of the design. Optional gates use Bruno interlocks: the top landing gate releases only when the platform is at the upper landing, and electronic sensors stop the platform unless the door is closed. Other options include a cold-weather package, gate operators, a pit switch and a flood zone tower, which puts the electronics and batteries on the top section of the tower.

The VPL-3210B is made in the USA. Custom Mobility installs it in Georgia with its own technicians and services it here.

Common questions

How much space does it need?

Far less than a ramp. ADA guidance calls for twelve inches of ramp run for every inch of rise, so a thirty inch porch wants a thirty foot ramp. Most front yards cannot give that up. A platform lift needs roughly the footprint of the platform itself.

Can I use it with a walker or a rollator rather than a wheelchair?

Yes. The platform is flat with a gate at each end, so you walk or roll straight on. Many of our residential platform lifts are used by people who are unsteady on steps rather than by chair users.

Does it need a pit?

Some configurations do and some do not. The site survey settles it before you are quoted.

Do you handle the permit and inspection?

Yes. This equipment generally requires a licensed installer and an inspection, and we hold that licensing in our own name rather than borrowing it from a subcontractor.

Can it go outdoors?

Yes, with weather-rated equipment: sealed controls, drainage, and a cover. We will not install an indoor unit outside, because it fails within a season.

How long does the whole job take?

Weeks rather than days, and most of that is site preparation and permitting rather than the installation itself. If a concrete pad has to be poured and cured, that is the long pole.

Do you service what you sell?

Yes, with our own technicians. The person who comes back is from the same company as the person who installed it.
