Frequently Asked Questions

What is a stairlift?

A stairlift is a device used to help people with mobility issues move up and down stairs.

How does a stairlift work?

A stairlift consists of a chair or platform that is attached to a rail that is fixed to the stairs. The user sits in the chair, which is then moved up or down the rail to reach the desired level.

Who can use a stairlift?

Stairlifts are designed for people with mobility issues, such as difficulty walking or standing for extended periods.

How is a stairlift installed?

Stairlifts are usually installed by professionals and require a survey of the stairs to ensure the proper fit and function of the device.

Are stairlifts safe?

Stairlifts are generally safe when installed and used correctly. They are equipped with safety features, such as seat belts, footrest sensors, and emergency stop buttons.

How much does a stairlift cost?

Pricing depends mainly on whether your staircase is straight or curved. Straight stairlifts, indoor or outdoor, typically range from $3,000 to $7,000 installed. Curved stairlifts are custom hand-crafted to match your staircase's exact turns and landings, so they run higher — typically $10,000 to $18,000 installed.

These are estimated ranges only; the exact price depends on your staircase and model. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote.

Can a stairlift be used outside?

Yes, there are outdoor stairlifts available, but they are designed specifically for outdoor use and are built to withstand the elements.

How long does a stairlift last?

The lifespan of a stairlift can vary, but on average, a well-maintained stairlift can last for 10 to 15 years.

Can a stairlift be moved to a different location?

Straight stairlifts can be moved to a different location, but this usually requires the services of a professional and may incur additional costs.

Curved stairlifts are custom-designed to fit your home's unique staircase layout and, as a result, are generally not intended for relocation.

Are stairlifts customizable?

Yes, many stairlifts can be customized to fit the specific needs and preferences of the user, such as the size and type of the seat, the position of controls, and the color of the rail. Stairlifts can also be customized to fit any staircase with a width of 30” or greater.

Do stairlifts require maintenance?

Yes, like any mechanical device, stairlifts require regular maintenance to ensure safe and proper functioning. This may include routine cleaning, tightening of bolts and screws, and checking for worn parts.
