Can an accessibility lift be self-installed?

Most manufactures discourage the installation of accessibility lifts by anyone other than a trained and authorized dealer and most will not honor any warranty if an accessibility lift is self-installed. In commercial applications, accessibility lifts are required to be installed to conform to local and National Codes and to be inspected by the local authority having jurisdiction prior to placing the unit in service. If a unit is not installed to code by trained technician the accessibility lift would not pass inspection and could make the installation unsafe.
