Nearly 11,000 Maple Grove residents are 65 or over
Maple Grove’s growth ran from the late 1980s through the 2000s, and the people who bought those houses new are now reaching the age where the stairs start to matter. Almost 11,000 residents are 65 or over and roughly 3,500 are past 75.
That history gives the city a consistent housing pattern: two-storey homes with the bedrooms upstairs, a finished basement below, and a two- or three-step landing from the garage. Most projects here involve one or both of those flights. Because the homes are relatively uniform, we can usually tell you over the phone what is likely to fit, though we still measure before quoting.
What we install in Maple Grove
- Stair lifts: straight rails for the main flight, and a second unit to the lower level where needed.
- Wheelchair lifts: vertical platform lifts at the garage entry and raised front stoops.
- Home elevators: residential elevators and through-floor lifts for full between-floor access.
- Wheelchair ramps: aluminium modular ramps and custom wood, sized to the entry.
- Accessible bathrooms: roll-in showers, walk-in tubs and conversions of the original main-floor bath.
- Safety and access: grab bars, stair railings, porch railings and automatic door openers.
Permitted, inspected, and done properly
Powered lifts and elevators are regulated equipment in Minnesota, not appliances you bolt down. Ocel Builders installs as a Minnesota Limited Elevator Contractor and holds a Minnesota Builders License, so the framing, the electrical coordination, the equipment and the inspection are handled by one accountable team in Hennepin County.
