Abstract
A lift for moving a wheelchair over a stairway includes a ramp, a wheelchair supporting platform and a mechanism for operating the platform over the ramp. When the lift is inoperative, the wheelchair supporting platform can be removed from the ramp and the ramp can be stored such that it does not intrude into the stairway and the operating mechanism is inaccessible.
