The Hidden Huts of Ōrongorongo Valley
GlideUp
The Glideup foot-operated hydraulic lift assists wheelchair users in overcoming everyday height differences such as kerbs, station platforms, and building thresholds without relying on external power or environmental modification. By applying foot pressure, the hydraulic piston amplifies the force to lift the wheelchair smoothly, and an automatic check valve locks the height for stability. Its modular design adapts to most wheelchairs.
