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 Sit Up Aid Sit-to-Stand Manual Lift is a sit-to-stand aid that helps a partially weight-bearing person pull themselves up into a standing position, then be moved safely between the bed, chair, toilet and wheelchair. It is a manual, carer-assisted stand aid — no motor or power required — that significantly reduces the manual handling load on caregivers while keeping the user actively involved in the transfer, which supports their strength, confidence and dignity.
Often searched as a sit-to-stand lift, stand assist lift, stand-up lift, standing aid, standing transfer aid or patient transfer aid, it is widely used in home care, aged care, rehabilitation and disability support for safe, repeatable transfers.

A sit-to-stand aid is designed for people who still have some ability to bear weight on their legs and can hold the support bar to take part in the transfer — typically someone who can support a good portion of their own weight but needs help rising and steadying. If the user cannot bear any weight or cannot hold the bar, a full-body hoist is the safer choice. If you are unsure which suits your situation, see our portable patient hoist, read our guide to the different types of hoists used in healthcare, or contact our team for guidance.
If the user can’t take any steps but can sit upright, a seated transfer chair is another option, such as the hydraulic commode transfer chair.
The user holds the crossbar handle and pulls themselves up into standing, supported by soft knee pads that stabilise the legs during the lift and while standing. Because the movement is a pulling motion rather than a push, it engages the user actively and supports their dignity during the transfer. The carer then uses the integrated seat handgrips to turn and move the unit, and the pivoting seat swings out to make getting on and off easy. Total-lock castors hold the unit completely steady when anchored.
For extra security during the stand, many carers pair a stand aid with a patient transfer belt. For step-by-step technique, see our guide on how to safely transfer a patient from wheelchair to bed.
This stand aid suits people who are partially weight-bearing and can steady themselves by holding the support bar, but need help rising and transferring. It is a practical transfer aid for home care, aged care facilities, rehabilitation and disability support, and is especially useful for getting on and off the toilet, in and out of a chair or sofa, and to and from the bed. The user must be able to hold the support bar and bear some weight to use it safely.
The unit measures 92 x 62 x 105 cm, and the pivot legs open from 61 cm to 84 cm to fit around chairs, beds and toilets. Check doorway widths and the clear floor space beside the toilet or bed before ordering. For bathroom layout guidance, see our guide to disabled toilet dimensions in NZ. At the bedside, a height-adjustable bed such as our electric hospital bed makes the sit-to-stand start easier.
This transfer aid is supplied and supported by Gilani Mobility, the New Zealand arm of Gilani Engineering — a working engineering company specialising in mobility and care equipment. Its specifications and suitability guidance are reviewed by founder Ramin “Ray” Gilani, a qualified mechanical engineer with more than 18 years of experience. Ray holds a Bachelor of Automotive Systems Engineering (Luleå University of Technology) and a Master of Mechanical Engineering (Monash University). Contact our team for honest advice on whether this is the right transfer solution.
It is a transfer aid that helps a partially weight-bearing person rise from sitting to standing and move safely between the bed, chair, toilet and wheelchair. This is a manual model — the user pulls themselves up on the crossbar handle while a carer assists, with no motor required. It is also known as a sit-to-stand lift, stand assist lift or standing transfer aid.
A manual sit-to-stand aid relies on the user pulling themselves up on the crossbar. A standing hoist uses a motor and sling to raise the user, so it suits people who can bear some weight but lack the arm strength to pull up. Neither is suitable for someone who cannot bear weight at all — they need a full-body hoist.
A sit-to-stand aid is for users who can bear some of their own weight and hold the support bar to take part in the transfer. A full-body patient hoist is for users who cannot bear weight at all and need to be lifted entirely. If the user can’t support themselves or hold the bar, a hoist is the safer option.
It is manual and carer-assisted, with no power or charging needed. The user pulls up on the crossbar while soft knee supports stabilise them, and the carer steers using the seat handgrips.
It has a loading capacity of 150 kg. If you need a higher capacity, contact our team and we can advise on alternatives.
Yes. The pivoting seat and pulling motion make it well suited to getting on and off the toilet, as well as transfers to and from chairs, sofas and beds.
The unit is 62 cm wide, and the pivot legs open from 61 cm to 84 cm. Measure your doorways and the floor space beside the toilet, chair or bed before ordering, and contact us if you’re unsure.
