Stairlifts are designed to travel safely up and down your staircase using a constant-pressure control. Most are fitted directly to the staircase rather than the wall and simply plug into a standard 13 amp socket.
If your staircase is particularly narrow, many manufacturers also offer perch seat models, allowing the user to travel in a semi-standing position with more space around the knees.
These stairlifts are suitable for straight staircases and the stair lift rail is fitted directly onto the stairs. Because it is much simpler to build than a curved stairlift, a straight stairlift can be ordered and installed within 2 days. Some companies boast an installation on the same day.
Straight stairlift quote and information
Designed to be used on curved or spiral staircases, these stairlifts require a bespoke stairlift rail, they are more expensive and will take longer to install than a straight stairlift. However, modern manufacturing techniques have greatly reduced the amount of time a bespoke curved stairlift takes to build.

Choosing a stairlift is an important decision. Here are answers to some of the questions we are most commonly asked before people request a free quotation.
The cost of a stairlift depends on several factors, including whether your staircase is straight or curved, the features you require and whether you choose a new or reconditioned stairlift. Straight stairlifts are generally less expensive than bespoke curved stairlifts. Requesting free quotations is one of the easiest ways to compare suitable options.
