What is the recommended hitch size and height?
The recommended hitch size is 2”x2”, which corresponds to a Class 3 hitch. Our heavy-duty lifts are designed to work with Class 3 hitches. For optimal performance, we recommend the hitch height be between 15” and 17” from the ground to the bottom of the hitch.
Is the TriLift compatible with a 7-pin plug?
Yes, the TriLift is compatible with a 7-pin plug. We offer a 7-pin plug lift end as an alternative to the standard wiring kit, providing a simpler and more efficient installation and removal process.
Are the brackets interchangeable?
It depends. Some scooters and power wheelchairs share the same frame, meaning they also use the same bracket. Feel free to contact us, and we’d be happy to confirm if your bracket is compatible with a specific chair!
I’m not sure which chair or car to buy to ensure compatibility with a TriLift. What should I do?

How does the docking bracket attached to the scooter?
The docking bracket bolts to the scooter / power wheelchair frame and typically utilizes u-bolts or u-clamps for attachment. Most application required no drilling.
What keeps my scooter locked on and prevents it from bouncing off?
With a touch of a button our patented triangular interlocking system double locks your scooter or power wheelchair in the uplifted position by wedging the docking bracket triangle into a specially designed lock bracket that is welded to the post of the lift. No cumbersome straps or clamps to mess with.
Will I be able to open the rear door of my vehicle once TRILIFT is installed?
Yes, a tilt option is available for most SUV’s & Vans and trucks.
Can I load my scooter / power chair in my garage and still have enough clearance to back out into the street?
TRILIFT carries your scooter / power chair with significantly more ground clearance than all others lifts and in most instances can be loaded in your garage or driveway.
