1. chair lift

   An elevated passenger ropeway, or chairlift, is a type of aerial lift, which consists of a continuously circulating steel wire rope loop strung between two end terminals and usually over intermediate towers, carrying a series of chairs. They are the primary onhill transport at most ski areas (in such cases referred to as 'ski lifts'), but are also found at amusement parks, various tourist attractions, and increasingly in urban transport. Depending on carrier size and loading efficiency, a passenger ropeway can move up to 4000 people per hour, and the fastest lifts achieve operating speeds of up to 12 m/s (39.4 ft/s) or 43.2 km/h (26.8 mph). The two-person double chair, which for many years was the workhorse of the ski industry, can move roughly 1200 people per hour at rope speeds of up to 2.5 m/s (8.2 ft/s). The four person detachable chairlift ("high-speed quad") can transport 2400 people per hour with an average rope speed of 5 m/s (16.4 ft/s). Some bi and tri cable elevated ropeways and reversible tramways achieve much greater operating speeds.

1. chair lift

   A chair lift is a type of aerial transportation system, usually found in mountainous areas or at ski resorts, consisting of a continuously circulating steel cable strung between two end terminals and generally over intermediate towers, carrying a series of chairs. Each chair is designed to carry passengers up and down a slope, often used by skiers and snowboarders to ascend the mountain more quickly and easily than hiking uphill. Chair lifts can also be found in places of scenic beauty to give visitors an elevated view of the surroundings.

Examples of chair lift in a Sentence

1. John McSweeney from Terry Lifts:

   You could describe it as a high-end chair lift. People don't want, in many cases, a chair-lift on their beautiful staircase and they don't necessarily want a lift; it's about looking at the lift for the long-term future proofing the property. And unlike a stairlift which is a permanent feature on your staircase, the lift can be sent away when you don't need it - so it's never the elephant in the room.
