Kensington was laid out in the early 1700s and by the 1830s it had become the center of Philadelphia’s textile industry. That history is still easy to see, however, the rowhomes that once housed generations of mill workers are compact with tight space. Stairs are narrow and steep, front doors open right onto the sidewalk, and there’s rarely room for a long ramp.
101 Mobility of Greater Philadelphia specializes in making these homes work. We’ll measure your space and recommend equipment that actually fits. Call (215) 608-0866 to book a free consultation.
Budget matters, and so does timing. We offer new equipment, short-term rentals for recovery after surgery or an injury, and refurbished options that lower the cost of getting started. Financing is available for those who qualify.
We serve homes across Kensington, including the areas around McPherson Square, Kensington and Allegheny, and Norris Square. We also cover North Philadelphia, Juniata, Hunting Park, and Oxford Circle.
Our factory-trained technicians are based in Bensalem, not a call center out of state. The same team that installs your equipment maintains it, and you can stop by our showroom any time to see products in person.

My front door opens straight onto the sidewalk. What are my options? For a single step, a small threshold or portable ramp often does the job. For several steps, a vertical platform lift takes up far less room than a ramp. We’ll look at your entry and explain what’s realistic.
Is renting a stairlift worth it? If you only need help for a few months while you recover, a rental can cost less than buying. We’ll walk you through both so you can compare.
What brands do you install? We install equipment from established manufacturers including Bruno, Savaria, and Handicare.
