Can the RAYMEX® Lift go in the car?

The RAYMEX® Lift can be transported in a car, but whether it fits comfortably depends on the vehicle type, boot space, and how the lift is handled.

If you are considering using the RAYMEX® Lift across different locations, for example, between home, a relative’s house, or a care setting, it is important to understand its size, weight and what that means in practice.

This guide explains the key dimensions and gives practical advice for transporting it safely.

RAYMEX® Lift dimensions

The RAYMEX® Lift is larger than ultra-compact emergency lifting aids because it is designed to provide stable, seated lifting support.

Overall width

Approximately 24.25 inches (62 cm) wide – a size that allows the device to fit comfortably through most home spaces without being overly bulky.

Overall length

28 inches (71 cm) from front to back.

Folded width

When tucked away or being transported, the width can reduce to roughly 12.5 inches (32 cm).

Seat height range

The seat can rise from being flush with the floor up to 24 inches (61 cm) above floor level.

Seat width

Approximately 19 inches (48 cm) across the seat itself.

How heavy is the RAYMEX® Lift?

The RAYMEX® Lift is a substantial, powered lifting device, so it is heavier than a typical walking aid.

The RAYMEX Lift weighs 36 lbs (16kg). 

Will it fit in a standard car boot?

This depends on the car.

Likely to fit with minimal adjustment

• Larger hatchbacks (with seats down)
• Estate cars
• SUVs

May be more difficult

• Small hatchbacks
• Cars with narrow boot openings
• Vehicles with high loading lips

Before purchasing, it is a good idea to:

• Measure your boot opening width and height
• Compare it to the lift dimensions
• Consider how the lift will actually be lifted in and out

Conclusion

Yes, the RAYMEX® Lift can go in a car, but it is not a particularly small or lightweight device.

With approximate dimensions of 62 cm wide and 71 cm deep, it requires:

• A suitable vehicle
• Thoughtful handling
• Often more than one person to load it safely

For many users, it works best as a home-based solution that can be moved when needed, rather than something transported daily.
