FAQs
What Is A Hydraulic Lift? A Hydraulic lift uses a pump to pump oil from a tank into a cylinder that raises a piston. As the piston rises, the cabin will also rise. To lower the cabin, the oil will be released from a valve in the cylinder in order to release pressure in a controlled way for a smooth descent. For more information, see our full guide.
Can I Customise My Altura Platinum Lift? Yes! The Altura Platinum Hydraulic lift is fully bespoke and customisable to suit your home or property and your ideal style.
How Is The Altura Platinum Different From The Altura Diamond The Altura Platinum Home Lift utilises Hydraulic technology for operation, which utilises oil, a pump and a piston in which to operate.
