Description

The Harmar AL560XL Automatic Universal Power Chair Lift is Harmar's most versatile exterior platform lift for power wheelchairs — the extra-large 32.5" × 38.5" adjustable platform accommodates virtually all popular power chairs up to 350 lbs with no chair modifications required. The drive-on/drive-off design lets the user pilot their power chair directly onto the platform from either side using their joystick — no hooking, no docking device, no lifting assistance needed. A padded hold-down arm automatically secures the chair by pressing down on the seat, with vertical adjustment to match any seat height. One-switch operation. Fully powered lift and automatic fold. Manual crank backup and license plate mount included. Power chair must have flip-back arms. Made in the USA.

Exterior hitch-mount platform lift · Power chairs only · 350 lb capacity · 32.5" × 38.5" platform · Drive-on/drive-off · One-switch operation · Class II or III hitch · Flip-back arms required. Compatibility confirmation required before every order ships.

Before You Order — Compatibility Must Be Confirmed The AL560XL requires the power chair to have flip-back arms — chairs with fixed arms are not compatible. Your vehicle needs a Class II or III hitch. We confirm compatibility on every order before it ships — no exceptions. Use the Harmar Compatibility Calculator below as a starting point then call us to verify before placing your order. We provide local professional installation at all five of our Southwest Florida locations and coordinate professional installation nationwide through Harmar's authorized dealer network. 866-218-0902 · Mon–Fri 9AM–5PM · Sat 9AM–3PM.

Drive On. Press a Button. Go.

Drive-On / Drive-Off · No Docking Required The AL560XL's platform is wide enough and low enough for a power chair user to pilot their chair directly on from either side using the chair's joystick — no docking device, no hook, no caregiver assistance required for the loading step. Platform wheel cradles adjust to provide a snug custom fit for each chair's wheelbase. The padded hold-down arm then descends automatically and presses down on the seat to secure the chair for transit — no straps, no manual tie-downs.
Extra-Large 32.5" × 38.5" Adjustable Platform The XL designation is meaningful — the 32.5" × 38.5" platform is significantly wider than the standard AL560's 28.5" × 38.5", accommodating larger power chairs that a standard-platform lift cannot handle. Adjustable wheel cradles adapt to different wheelbase widths for a custom fit each time. The platform folds automatically when the chair is not loaded — one-switch operation throughout.
Manual Crank Backup · Swing-Away Option · Made in USA Manual crank backup allows the platform to be lowered in the event of a power failure — an important safety feature for any exterior lift user. License plate mount included standard. Optional swing-away allows the loaded lift to pivot aside for rear vehicle access. Battery pack available for independent power operation. Some states require an external license plate display — confirm your state's requirements before installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both are automatic universal power chair lifts with the same 350 lb capacity and one-switch operation. The AL560 has a 28.5" × 38.5" platform. The AL560XL has a wider 32.5" × 38.5" platform to accommodate larger power chairs that the standard AL560 platform cannot fit. If your power chair is larger or wider than average, the AL560XL is the right choice. Call us with your chair make and model and we will confirm which version fits. 866-218-0902.
No — the AL560XL requires power chairs with flip-back arms. The padded hold-down arm secures the chair by pressing down on the seat, and fixed arms prevent this from working correctly. If your chair has fixed arms call us and we will identify the right lift for your specific chair. 866-218-0902.
Yes — professional installation is required for warranty coverage and safe operation. We provide local installation at all five of our Southwest Florida locations and coordinate professional installation nationwide through Harmar's authorized dealer network. 866-218-0902.
Several states require a license plate to be displayed on the outside of a vehicle lift. A license plate mount is included standard with the AL560XL. States where it may be required include FL, TX, CA, AZ, OR, WA, and others — confirm your state's requirements before installation.
