A stairlift for Any Stairs

If your ability to navigate comfortably in your home has been hindered due to a lack of mobility, a stairlift could be the remedy. Depending on the circumstances, you can be uncertain if a stairlift is appropriate for you. A stairlift enables you to ascend safely and descend the stairs. Can a stairlift be fit to any staircase?  New technology has totally changed the stairlift market, which is a huge benefit. In nearly any house, a stairlift can be installed. 

The structure of your home will dictate the stairlift that is suitable for you. There are three major types of stairlifts available. The straight stairlift is the simplest option. If you have a linear staircase, the straight stairlift allows you to travel between floors with ease. The curved stairlift increases mobility on staircases with loops, turns, or curves. Finally, an outdoor stairlift is suitable for assistance in your garden or on steep stairs on your driveway. All of these options can be tailored to fit a selection of staircases.  

Aside from the kind of stairlift, you must acknowledge the dimensions of your stairwell when assessing the right fit for your staircase. The length of your staircase, the depth of the steps, and the distance across the treads are all considerations of stairlift installation. Direct measurements are needed to ensure that the stairlift operates effectively and safely. Even if you have a unique set of stairs, a stairlift can be customized to fit right in your home.  

How do you know which stairlift is best for your staircase? Acorn Stairlifts, for instance, will send out a surveyor to evaluate your specific case. Depending on the situation, this survey can also be done online through video chat. The surveyor will look at all of the dimensions to determine which stairlift is the right match for your stairs. Following the completion of your home survey, a free quote will be given with no obligation to buy. Your quote will take into account the staircase design; a straight stairlift will usually be on the lower end of the price spectrum, whereas a curved stairlift will normally be slightly higher. 

It is relatively simple to mount your custom-made stairlift. There will be no structural damage to your home because the stairlift rail is fixed to the steps rather than the wall. The installation process takes just a few hours, and with a detailed survey, the process runs smoothly the day you acquire your new stairlift. Engineers work efficiently and dependably to finish installing your new stairlift as quickly as possible so you can return to enjoying your home.
