Mac's • Vertical Home Lift • Porch Lift
The simple, rugged porch lift for homes and mobile homes.
The PL-50 raises you and your wheelchair or scooter up to 50 inches, plugs into ordinary household current and works indoors or out. Mac's built it to be quiet and virtually maintenance free, and backs it with a 5-year limited warranty, one of the longest in the porch lift industry.
Mac's tested a PL-50 at its full 750 lb load once a minute, around the clock, with no rest. That durability is why it is a favorite for mobile home and manufactured home porches.
Covers most single-wide and double-wide mobile home entries, porches and decks. Need more height? Ask about the PL-72 (up to 72 in.).
Carries the rider and most electric wheelchairs and scooters on a non-slip platform.
Runs on standard 110V AC. A 12V DC battery system is available for power outages or sites without an outlet.
A key-operated, constant-pressure switch lets you start, stop and reverse at any point in the ride.
A 12-inch ramp lowers for easy roll-on at the ground and rises as a barrier during travel. The low platform makes boarding easy.
Rated from -30 to +120 degrees, with sealed electrical mounted well above ground and an automotive-grade powder coat finish.
Start with the PL-50, add call/send buttons for the top and bottom landings, and we install it for you.
Up to 50″ of lift, 750 lb capacity, key-lock paddle control, 12″ automatic folding ramp, manual hand crank, 5-year limited warranty.

Mac's industry-exclusive coverage on the PL-50
Call 800-551-2010 for the full written warranty terms.
The PL-50 stands beside your steps on a small concrete pad and meets your porch at the top. Its 48″ x 48″ footprint takes a fraction of the space a ramp would need.
A ramp needs about one foot of length for every inch of rise. A 30″ mobile home porch would need roughly 30 feet of ramp, plus landings. The PL-50 does the same job in a 4-foot square.

GET A FREE QUOTE: 800-551-2010Yes. Most mobile and manufactured home entries are within the PL-50's 50-inch lift. It needs a level 4-inch concrete pad beside the steps and a household outlet.
The Mac's PL-72 lifts up to 72 inches, and Mac's extended lifts go higher still.
Every PL-50 includes a manual emergency hand crank. The optional 12V DC battery system keeps it running without household power.
They let you bring the empty lift to you from either landing, so it is always waiting where you need it. Each is $395.
The standard 32¼″ x 48″ platform fits most wheelchairs and scooters. Larger 36″-wide platforms and 90° exit platforms are available.
For $350 our crew sets, anchors, adjusts and tests your PL-50 on a ready concrete pad, then shows you how to use it safely.
