Accessibility Tools
The Troy-Hayner Cultural Center wants to serve all of its citizens.
Please review the accessibility tools available at the Hayner. Specifications for our lifts are noted below.
Be sure to contact our Assistant Director, Rachael Boezi
with any questions or needs for special accommodations.
We are handicapped accessible to the first floor.
Incline Lift At West Entrance:
The West entrance has 5 steps which can be navigated using our outdoor incline lift. There should always be at least one staff member on site that will be tasked with operating the lift for you. We encourage you to phone ahead if you need the lift. Our staff hopes to be instantly available but it would be a kindness to yourself and to our staff to phone ahead especially in cold weather. We do not want you to sit in the cold while we finish a phone call and get on our coats and gloves.

Second and Third Floors are serviced by a handicapped lift.
Handicapped lift in the North Service Hall:
PLEASE NOTE: It has come to our attention that our handicapped lift in the North Service Hall will not accommodate some of the larger electric wheelchairs. The exit to the third floor lift poses additional restrictions as the chair enters on the shorter dimension and must exit at a 90 degree angle from the longer dimension. Please call the center if you wish more information.
The handicapped lift is a small service elevator located in the hall to the Kitchen. It was installed in 2018 due to a generous grant from the Troy Foundation and the support of the Friends of Hayner. It may be used to reach our second floor rooms and Exhibit Gallery, as well as our third floor Ballroom.
Our Front Desk Staff person will operate this lift for you. If you are in the building and the Front Desk Staff person is otherwise occupied, please phone the number below and let the person who answers the phone know you are ready to use the lift. Everyone here is available to run the handicapped lift inside the building.
