Ceiling Hoists

Ceiling hoists for safe, hands-free movements

Active Mobility's ceiling hoist solutions provide a safe, hands-free way to transfer a person between a bed, a chair, or a wheelchair. Our range covers fixed and portable ceiling hoist systems with manual or powered traverse, so you can match the right lifting equipment to the room and the task, such as transferring between multiple pieces of equipment (e.g. a change table or shower commode).

Fixed and portable ceiling hoists for every space 

A fixed ceiling hoist runs on a permanent track, built into a room for regular use in a set location, such as a bedroom or bathroom. If you've been searching for a disabled ceiling hoist that suits multiple rooms, our portable ceiling hoists detach from one gantry track system and carry across to another, so you only need to purchase one hoist to cover several locations.

Manual and powered traverse for effortless transfers

Traverse refers to the hoist's movement along the track from one point to another. Manual traverse is guided by hand for easy, free-flowing movement, while powered traverse takes the effort out of moving a person across a room. It is more suitable for bariatric clients and those with sufficient strength to self-transfer.

Both options are designed to transfer people gently and safely, reducing strain and the risk of injury for support workers, family members, and the person being moved.

Free-standing gantry and ceiling track systems built around your space

A free-standing gantry offers the benefits of a ceiling hoist without permanent installation, ideal for rental properties or rooms where fixed tracks aren't an option. It's sturdy enough for regular use, yet can be moved to a new room when required.

For a more permanent setup, our ceiling track hoist systems suit rooms with sufficient floor space and structural capacity to support a fixed track, offering a higher weight capacity for daily use.

Ceiling hoists for hospitals, aged care and home use

From hospitals and aged care facilities to home patient care, our ceiling hoist systems are designed to meet specific needs, including bariatric options with higher safe working loads. Every model is built with safety as the priority, and as an NDIS provider, we can help you work out what's covered under your plan.

If you're not sure which system suits your space, book a showroom appointment, submit a trial request, or contact our team for tailored advice before you buy or hire.
