Frequently Asked Questions

What is the safe working load of the Hoyer Calibre and who is it designed for?

The Hoyer Calibre has a safe working load of 850 lbs (approximately 385–386 kg). It is a heavy-duty electric floor lift specifically engineered for the safe transfer of bariatric and higher-weight patients.

This capacity places the Calibre at the top of the standard Hoyer mobile lift range and makes it suitable for facilities and specialized home care situations where patient weight regularly exceeds the limits of 500 lb or 700 lb lifts. The design prioritizes both patient comfort and caregiver safety when handling larger individuals.

Does the Hoyer Calibre include a powered base and Smart Monitor?

Yes. The Calibre comes standard with a powered base, allowing the caregiver to open and close the legs using the hand control without bending or using a foot pedal. This is particularly important when maneuvering a high-capacity lift around larger wheelchairs, recliners, or beds.

It also includes Hoyer Smart Monitor technology. The system tracks lift cycles, logs overload events, displays service reminders, and provides emergency indicators. This data supports proper maintenance scheduling and long-term reliability in high-demand bariatric care environments.

Does the Hoyer Calibre come with a scale?

Yes. Unlike many other Hoyer models where the scale is optional, the Calibre is supplied with an integrated low-profile digital scale as standard equipment. The scale is NAWI Class III rated and features a dual-sided display with intuitive controls.

This allows caregivers to weigh the patient during the transfer process without needing a separate scale or additional handling. Accurate weight monitoring is especially valuable in bariatric care for tracking changes and supporting clinical decisions.

What makes the handle and base design of the Calibre different?

The Calibre features an extra-wide, wrap-around push handle that allows more than one caregiver to assist with maneuvering the lift. This multi-caregiver access reduces individual strain when moving heavier loads.

It also uses twin pivoting front casters designed to improve stability and maneuverability over uneven floors and thresholds — a common challenge when transferring bariatric patients. Combined with the powered base and swan-neck style legs, these features help the lift get closer to the patient while remaining controllable.

What are the base width dimensions of the Hoyer Calibre?

When fully open, the legs provide an external width of approximately 55.1–55.25 inches and an internal width of about 49 inches. When closed, the external width is approximately 33.2–33.25 inches.

These wider dimensions create a stable platform necessary for higher-weight transfers while still allowing the closed base to pass through many institutional doorways. Overall height of the legs is roughly 4.75 inches.

How much does the Hoyer Calibre weigh and what battery system does it use?

Total weight of the Calibre is approximately 246.9 lbs, reflecting its heavy-duty construction and high capacity components.

It is powered by two 24V rechargeable sealed lead-acid battery packs with an off-board charger. The dual-battery system allows one pack to charge while the other remains in service, which is important in environments where the lift may be used frequently throughout the day.

What cradle, scale, and sling options come with the Hoyer Calibre?

The Hoyer Calibre comes standard with a 6-point positioning cradle. This wider cradle is designed to provide a larger support area and reduce pinching or squeezing for larger patients.

The integrated digital scale is also included as standard equipment (NAWI Class III rated with dual-sided display). This is a key difference from many other Hoyer lifts, where the scale is sold separately.

Slings are not included with the lift. Customers must select and purchase a compatible high-capacity Hoyer loop-style sling that is rated for the 850 lb safe working load. Using an under-rated sling is unsafe and should be avoided.
