Hi-Lo Head lift

This is a horizontal lifting function. Where the entire bed will lift up to 340mm horizontally while maintaining the current backrest/headrest angle and massage function if fitted.

The combination of these 2 functions gives the flexibility of the Hi-Lo feature that is often required when receiving in-home personal care and can significantly assist in entering/exiting the bed safely and independently.

As with many things, it's important to re-think and re-learn how to do things. This is very much true for an adjustable bed as it takes learning how to use the functions that the electric bed offers to assist in increasing independence while ensuring a high level of safety at all times.

The optimum use of these functions for getting out of bed would be as follows.

• Raise the Backrest of your bed as much as possible. If you experience pain or discomfort, stop immediately
• You are now seated in bed
• Swivel your legs to the side of the bed. If required we can add a rail for assistance
• Use the lift-function of your bed to bring you to a perched position. Ensure that both of your feet are always flat on the ground. If you use a walking aid, such as a walker ensure this is within reach with the breaks on
• Use the rail or your mobility device to fully stand up

While most people prefer the added comfort of the leg-lift function, the hi-lo head lift option can be a great way to save a little bit of money. Some of our customers spend time before bedtime in their Recliner chairs with their feet raised and don’t feel the need to raise their feet while in bed, hence not wanting this function.

If you later change your mind and would like to add the leg-lift function, we can easily retro-fit this function to your existing bed!

Being a custom-made bed, you will still be able to choose your required bed height for optimal entering and exiting of the bed using minimal effort.

You can also choose from 6 different mattress types to achieve your perfect comfort levels. Mattresses range from plush to firm and include options for

• Innerspring
• Pillowtop
• Latex
• Memory-foam
• Pocket Spring
• Hospital style foam

Depending on the size of your bed, the weight capacity of the bed may vary. Please check with our friendly team to determine the weight capacity for your choices

As with all our beds, you can also choose from an extensive range of accessories and extras to make the bed best suited to what you want, and you need. Some of our most popular accessories include

• Heavy-duty angled rail – our design, manufactured with our client's comments in mind. These heavy-duty rails allow us to bolt them to the bed base, allowing them to profile with the bed, minimising the risk of entrapment. The angled design also ensures more room for getting on/out of bed while the backrest is raised.
• Upholstered bed surround – whether you choose an imported or WA-made bed surround, it adds additional style to your bedroom, making your bed stand-out for all the right reasons.
