FlexStep Wheelchair Lift in Oregon & Washington
The elite 2-in-1 solution that converts from functional stairs to a stable platform lift at the touch of a button. Designed for residential garages and luxury homes.
Garage Steps Creating Accessibility Challenges?
For many homeowners in Oregon and Washington, the garage is the primary gateway to the home and the primary obstacle.
When our mobility changes, stairs can become challenging. A small set of steps from the garage to the house can become an insurmountable barrier. Traditional solutions often create more problems than they solve.
- A traditional stairlift (the chair-style solution) is often impractical in a garage because it requires a safe “transfer” area at both the bottom and top, which most garages lack.
- A vertical platform lift solves the challenge of removing the stairs, but it also means there are no more stairs! And while it is possible to have both a vertical platform lift AND a set of stairs, this takes a lot of space.
- Ramps are a logistical nightmare in a Garage. Under ADA guidelines, for every inch of vertical rise, you need a foot of ramp. This means the typical Garage stairs with 4 steps (about 30-inches of rise) requires a 30-foot ramp. This renders most garages useless for parking cars and creates a clinical, industrial look that hurts home resale value. If you are searching for a platform lift, you likely already know that space is your most valuable asset.
Meet the FlexStep Wheelchair Lift
The FlexStep is the only product on the market that truly provides a “zero-compromise” solution for homeowners.
As the premier FlexStep lift provider, Suite Additions recommends this technology for its unique dual-functionality. By day, it serves as a high-quality set of stairs for able-bodied family members, guests, and delivery drivers. When accessibility is required, the stairs electronically level out to create a wide, safe FlexStep platform lift.
The FlexStep wheelchair lift is engineered with several key safety features, including an on-board control panel, safety barriers that automatically deploy when the lift is in motion, and anti-crush sensors. It is the perfect marriage of Danish design and American construction expertise, ensuring that your home remains both beautiful and accessible for decades to come.

How Much Does a FlexStep Wheelchair Lift Cost?
Investing in a FlexStep is an investment in your home’s infrastructure. While every project is unique, we believe in transparent pricing for our Oregon and Washington clients.
The average FlexStep price for a fully installed unit typically ranges from $25,000 to $35,000. This variation in FlexStep lift cost depends on several critical construction factors that our licensed team will evaluate during your consultation.
What's Included in the Cost:
- Custom-manufactured FlexStep unit (2 to 6 steps).
- International logistics and white-glove delivery.
- Licensed electrical hookup (dedicated circuit).
- Professional structural installation by Suite Additions.
- State-required permit fees and final inspections.
Factors That Influence Price:
- Number of steps: A 5-step lift requires more engineering than a 2-step.
- Finish materials: Options for wood treads, steel, or outdoor-rated materials.
- Site Prep: Whether your garage floor requires leveling or curb cutting.
- State Codes: Specific permit requirements for OR vs WA.
