Choosing a Hoist
TPG Disable Aids | Advice & Support
Hoists
Browse our professional help & advice section below.
It is always advisable to have some form of healthcare professional input when looking at the purchase of a hoist.
Hoists fall into two main categories, ceiling mounted and mobile, both of which have very different operations and limitations.
We are pleased to advise in conjunction with a healthcare professional as to what would be most suitable for your particular situation.

How Our LOLER Inspection Process Works
Simple and safe to use, with a 375 kg load capacity and no manual operation required.
Key Advantages
- Seamless Transitions : Move from one room to the other without interrupting the transfer process.
- Improved Patient Dignity : Ideal for private home settings, reducing the need for multiple carers or manual transfers.
- Space Efficiency : Eliminates the requirement for large floor hoists or wheelchairs to navigate narrow doorways.
Combi-Lock and Other Transition Accessories
When you need to connect tracks or enable hoist transitions between multiple rails, Combi-Lock (sometimes referred to as a “Gate” or “Coupling Lock”) and other Guldmann transition solutions can be installed. These accessories allow a single hoist to move seamlessly between different tracks in separate rooms or corridors.
Key Advantages
Flexible Setup : Easily switch the hoist from one track to another, accommodating multiple care areas.
Reduced Equipment Costs : One hoist can serve several rooms or zones, cutting down on extra units.
Customisable : Adjust and lock rails in place to suit specific patient or caregiver requirements.
