Straight Ceiling Track and Hoist

Straight ceiling track and hoist — overview

The Straight Ceiling Track and Hoist uses the Freeway Transactive Xtra hoist to provide discreet, space‑saving transfers around the home. Ceiling mounting removes the need for bulky floor equipment and lets the user move smoothly between bed, chair, wheelchair, toilet or bath when required. The system is intended to integrate naturally into the room.

Each installation begins with a free, no‑obligation home assessment by a qualified surveyor. We will measure and plan a bespoke straight track layout so the hoist moves where you need it. After the survey you receive a clear quotation that outlines the proposed layout, costs and timescales before any work goes ahead.

The Freeway Transactive Xtra offers quiet, low‑profile operation and soft start/stop technology for controlled lifting. The slim motor keeps noise and visual impact to a minimum, helping transfers feel calm and reassuring for the user and easier for carers to manage.

Optional add‑ons let you tailor the system to match personal needs. Available extras include powered traverse for remote lateral movement, quick‑release trolleys for easier sling changes and integrated charging solutions for convenient battery management. Your installer will confirm which options suit your layout.

Safety and long‑term reliability are part of the service. All installations follow recognised safety standards and each Freeway Transactive Xtra is supplied with a five‑year warranty. Ongoing servicing and maintenance packages are available to keep the system working reliably over time.

We handle installation from initial survey to final handover. The installer will assess ceiling structure and positioning, fit the straight track and hoist, carry out commissioning and provide practical guidance on everyday use. Training for carers or family members can be arranged at handover.
