Thank you very much Maria, I’m sure I’ll be getting all my future needs from you where you are able to supply me.
I am happy to confirm that we are satisfied with the changes, more importantly, the changes along with the overall bathroom modifications work very well for Lauren.
I highly recommend Gilani Mobility. I’m extremely happy with the quality of their work. Ray’s excellent problem solving helped my unique needs.
The Hoist Atlas is a portable, boot-mounted wheelchair hoist for your car that lifts a folded wheelchair or mobility scooter safely into the boot — with no hard wiring or permanent installation. It mounts to a stable base in the boot for better lifting stability than a fully free-standing hoist, yet stays removable, so you can take it out or transfer it between vehicles. Operated by remote, it takes the heavy lifting out of loading your mobility equipment.
Often searched as a wheelchair hoist for a car, car boot hoist, mobility scooter hoist or wheelchair crane, the Hoist Atlas is a practical choice for drivers and carers who want a hoist that installs without modifying the vehicle.

Lifting a wheelchair or mobility scooter in and out of a car by hand puts real strain on your back, shoulders and arms — and for many people it’s simply not possible without help. The Hoist Atlas does the lifting for you at the press of a button, so you can keep your independence and travel with your own equipment, without relying on someone else to load it.
The Hoist Atlas fits to a mounted base in your car boot, giving a stable anchor point for lifting. Attach your folded wheelchair or scooter, then use the remote to lift it off the ground and into the boot — and reverse it to unload. Because it’s mounted rather than hard-wired, it installs without cutting into your vehicle’s wiring, and it can be removed or transferred to another car when you need to.
There are two main styles of boot hoist, and the right one depends on how much stability versus flexibility you want. A fully portable hoist folds away completely and lifts a device straight off the pavement — maximum flexibility, ideal for lighter wheelchairs. A boot-mounted hoist like the Hoist Atlas fixes to a stable base in the boot, giving steadier, more controlled lifting for heavier scooters and powerchairs — while still being removable and transferable. The Hoist Atlas sits in the middle: more stability than a fully portable hoist, without the permanent wiring of a fixed installation.
