2840 - Product Information Sheet

Need to move between rooms while staying safely supported? Discover the SureHands Tarzan System.

Designed for homes with separate ceiling track sections, the Tarzan System uses a portable motor equipped with a specialized eye ring that allows a caregiver to transition the lift from one track to another. This creates a smooth transfer between spaces such as a bedroom and bathroom without requiring continuous track or doorway modifications.

Because each room uses its own ceiling rail, the Tarzan System preserves your home’s existing doorways while providing a practical and efficient room-to-room transfer solution.
