A +++ for Area Access!!! Honest, easy to work with, and overall a great experience working with…read morethem. A couple of years ago I gave away a mobility scooter I no longer needed and the place where I donated it threw away the brack mount that was attached to the scooter by accident. The bracket mount was necessary to use a new scooter in the vehicle lift. I didn't worry about it much at the time since I didn't need another scooter. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago when I learned my condition was such that I needed to start using a scooter again. I got a new scooter but didn't have a mounting brack for the docking device so I could transport it in my vehicle. I went to a different mobility company first in NOVA that looked at my lift and new scooter and quoted me 500usd to replace and install the new mount! When I questioned the high price, I was told the cost of acquiring the part was nearly 400usd. After several discussions, something didn't feel right about my quote. I felt resigned at the price and figured I would wait until I absolutely could not manage without the scooter. I later learned that the other company was ordering a bunch of unnecessary parts that were already installed on my vehicle and jacking up the price! Then I remembered that I bought a ramp from area access a long time ago when they were in Falls Chruch before they moved to Manassas. I decided to drive out there and see if they could get the part for me. Not only did they explain that the part I needed to be done was only 77usd plus labor to install, but it also turned out that after a bit of searching, they had a lightly used one on-site and could install it for me RIGHT THEN. Less than an hour later, they had installed the mounting bracket and adjusted my lift for my new scooter, for a quarter of the price I was quoted by another company in NoVA. Everyone I encountered was honest and looking to help me out, so I could go about my business with my scooter ASAP. I was so happy that I nearly started to cry. I will return to Area Access for any of my mobility needs in the future. The other place I went to in Alexandria is much closer to my home but the drive to Area Access was well worth the experience. I highly recommend this company!

We contracted Area Access Inc., based in Manassas, VA, to install a pneumatic elevator in…read moreWashington, DC. The cost of the equipment was approximately $51,000, with a similar additional cost for construction and installation. Shortly after installation was completed, the elevator began to fail on a regular basis. As of April 14, 2026, we have required seven (7) separate service calls, none of which have resulted in a permanent resolution. While the elevator may function temporarily after technicians complete a visit, it typically begins malfunctioning again within one to two days. In many instances, Area Access Inc. has charged service fees for issues that appear to stem from a defective product rather than normal wear or user error. Despite multiple service visits, the company has: 1. Failed to identify and correct the root cause of the problem; and 2. Sent technicians who do not appear adequately trained to resolve the underlying issue. A recurring and concerning problem occurs when the elevator cab approaches the first floor. At that point, it drops abruptly approximately 2-3 inches above the landing, causing a noticeable shock. This impact seems to disrupt recent adjustments made by technicians and may be contributing to ongoing system instability. Additionally, scheduling service has been difficult. Communication with the corporate office has been frustrating, with calls frequently going unanswered and customer service representatives unable or unwilling to provide clear commitments toward a lasting solution. Over the past two years, we estimate that the elevator has functioned properly only about 50% of the time.

He stated prospective clients usually " pipe up " information such as weight when first contacting him.

Lastly, Accorn Stairlifts are the " Yugo/Edsell of stairlifts which is to say all consumer reviews state they are junk.

I got him on the phone, and he said he had to find out some information from his friend in New York, which was on a Friday afternoon. I called back on Monday after not hearing anything, and he said he needed to contact his friend again to get the information about fixing our particular Stairlift model. No response, no callback, so on Tuesday I called and wasn't particularly happy that I hadn't gotten a call. He retook my address and sent out a local guy named Clide, who was friendly and super knowledgeable about these chairs. He opened them up, replaced the batteries, and put the chair back on the track. He tested it and verified that it was working perfectly. I highly recommend this company, but stay on top of the manager or owner a little more than I should. If you need service on a chairlift, this is the company with the most knowledge in the area. Recommended!!

We searched out four brands and settled on an Ameriglide Rave2. Little did I know, however, the installation was to be subbed out. After numerous phone calls and unanswered messages I told Ameriglide I wanted my Mom to be credited for the $744 installation fee. After that battle I found American Pride Remodeling through a Google search. My first call to Dennis was answered immediately and he reassured me that everything I said he had dealt with before. Not only was he an Ameriglide installer and he would be able to assist. Best part was he was only 30 minutes away. Fast forward 4 days and the unit is now installed.
