Which Stairlift is right for me?
When choosing an Outdoor stairlift, there are a few things to consider. Firstly, is the space available to you, all stairlifts have a different minimum width requirement. However, when you arrange a survey from one of our trusted assessors, they will always ensure that the stairlift will be able to fit on your staircase. Another thing to consider is the safety features of the stairlift. All of our straight stairlifts have excellent safety features such as seatbelts, obstruction detection and battery backups in case of a power cut. You would also need to consider a number of other factors such as comfort, ease of use, price and aftercare.
