The primary benefit of a rise and fall toilet is its ability to cater to multiple users or different transfer methods (such as from a wheelchair).
- Vertical Travel: Most of our adjustable systems offer a lifting range of 200mm (8 inches).
- Starting Height: The unit can usually be set to a "resting" height that matches a standard chair, then raised to a higher position to help a user move into a standing position.
This range ensures that whether you are doing a seated transfer from a wheelchair or need a "perch" height for a standing transfer, the toilet can be adjusted to the millimetre.
It's also what makes rise and fall toilets so useful in shared settings. See our guide to specifying rise and fall toilets for a care home.
