What is a pool lift?
ACCESS by BLAUTEC pool lifts and pool hoists, manufactured in Europe (Barcelona), enable therapeutic and recreational swimming, allowing users with reduced mobility to enter and exit the pool safely thanks to their vertical rotation of up to 180º. They are designed to provide maximum autonomy to the user.
ACCESS pool lifts are sturdy, safe, easy to install, and meet all functional and aesthetic requirements to offer users with special needs an alternative to pool access stairs. We manufacture a wide range of models to meet all customer needs and pool types, requiring a minimum depth at the installation site and supporting users weighing up to 160 kg.
Pool lifts, or aquatic lifts, are specially designed to allow safe access to the pool for people with disabilities, the elderly, or those with mobility difficulties. They are considered a key element in achieving barrier-free facilities in swimming pools in a safe manner, providing our customers with total autonomy and comfort.
Pool lifts ensure access to the water, which is a huge benefit and improves quality of life for many people.

At ACCESS, we are committed to inclusion and social responsibility in order to achieve a society that embraces diversity and plurality, and in which people with functional diversity or special needs are treated as equals.
We are committed to accessibility and to providing everyone with the best bathing experience, developing and improving all our pool lifts and pool hoists to achieve 100% accessible environments.

ACCESS pool lift models:
There are several types of pool lifts designed to facilitate access to the water for people with disabilities or the elderly.
A key factor in choosing a lift is its installation and adaptability to different pool profiles. We manufacture several models to offer fixed or portable solutions for all types of public pools or small family pools:
To begin with, we present the new, recently improved ACCESS B5 model, a more compact and elegant pool lift. Its greatest advantages are its improved usability and total user autonomy, allowing the user to enjoy the pool without assistance or effort. It is also designed to improve transport costs and facilitate installation (suitable for any local installer).
The ACCESS B1 model is a portable hydraulic lift that, by means of simple anchors on the edge, allows the lift to be moved and installed so that it can be shared between different pools in the same facility, such as a sports center, hotel or campsite pools, a spa, or others.
This same lift is available in a fixed version: the ACCESS B2 model, which, like its sibling B1, has an extendable arm to adapt to different pools and types of overflows. It is a robust, resistant, and safe piece of equipment that also includes a footrest for greater comfort.
On the other hand, we have the ACCESS B4 and B4 XL models, fixed hydraulic lifts that are very easy to install using three screws to anchor them to the floor. Our technical team recommends them for seasonal pools and highlights their adaptability to any type of pool, even shallow ones.
All ACCESS pool hoists are made of AISI 316L stainless steel and polypropylene pool seats, both materials being fully suitable for outdoor use and highly resistant to corrosion. These highly durable materials guarantee a long service life for the lifts.
All ACCESS pool lifts are easily removable and detachable for storage during long periods of inactivity or pool use (designed for outdoor or summer pools).
The four models of ACCESS pool lifts adapt to any type of pool, and depending on each customer's needs, one solution or another is offered.

How does an ACCESS pool lift work?
ACCESS pool lifts or pool lifts are fully hydraulic: they operate using the force provided by the water pressure from the mains, which must always be between 3.5 and 5.5 bar. They consist of a main mast, a seat, and a hydraulic piston that allows vertical and rotational movement (following a rail system).
The movement of users is smooth, comfortable, and safe, and it supports up to 160 kg. The lift moves vertically on its own axis, offering a minimum rotation angle of 150º. This system guarantees movement towards the water, with a clockwise rotation, providing great comfort and safety for the user. To avoid risks, they also have a three-way valve that ensures that, in the event of a failure during descent, it continues to offer smooth movement.
All ACCESS pool lifts have dual actuation to offer maximum autonomy to users with reduced mobility (both when entering and exiting the water). This way, users can operate the pool lift themselves without assistance.
The lifts have a seat made of sun- and water-resistant materials so that a single user can remain seated comfortably and safely throughout the lift's journey. There are also additional accessories for securing or supporting the user, which we recommend using whenever they are available.
What other features stand out in ACCESS lifts?
Designed to offer maximum safety and durability
All ACCESS pool hoists are made of AISI 316L stainless steel and polypropylene pool seats, both materials being fully suitable for outdoor use and highly resistant to corrosion. These highly durable materials guarantee a long service life for the lifts.
Their stable and secure attachment to the pool surface never requires any work to be carried out inside the pool.
In-house manufacturing and quality control
All ACCESS lifts are manufactured in-house at our workshop in Igualada, Barcelona, Spain. All parts are manufactured in Europe, guaranteeing high standards of quality and reliability. Before being sold, each lift undergoes rigorous quality controls, where the finishes are checked to rule out any irregularities that could compromise user safety. In addition, they are subjected to performance tests with heavy loads to ensure optimal performance in real-life situations. This commitment to quality and safety reflects our commitment to providing durable and reliable products to our customers.
Easy installation and minimal maintenance
Although the installation and use of the lift is very intuitive and does not require any specific training, it is advisable to read and follow the instructions in the manual.
For maintenance, simply observe its operation to assess the need to replace its internal seals so that, over time or with use, it does not leak water. A maintenance kit and specific manual are available so that a maintenance technician can easily perform the task.
