The Sadler Standing Stairlift
A stand-up chair with seat assistance, a non-slip seat and adjustable seat height
If you struggle with back or knee pain, the Sadler can help you enjoy the full use of your home.
The Sadler: Your Answer to a Compact, Standing Stairlift
The Sadler brings effortless mobility to every level of your home. Offering gentle support in a natural, upright position, its clever design includes a sprung and non-slip seat that provides standing assistance. Additionally, seat-height can be adjusted to the user on installation. Recommended primarily for those with limited back, hip or knee flexibility, the Sadler can also be a good fit for narrow staircases. Your personal stair adviser can help you decide if the Sadler is right for you.
With the Sadler, you get a dynamic stairlift designed to provide extra assistance standing, when your mobility needs require more than a sitting model provides. When flexibility is limited, and sitting or getting up is difficult, the Sadler's near-standing position could be a better choice. Each feature has been thoughtfully designed with your comfort and safety in mind.
The Sadler Features
Perch-Style Design
The Sadler's innovative, semi-standing design is ideal for those with limited flexibility or back and knee pain. This unique design reduces stress on your joints while providing stable support throughout your journey up or down the stairs. The ergonomic design helps maintain a natural posture, making it comfortable for users who find traditional seated positions challenging.

Seat Height Options
The Sadler's seat height can be adjusted on installation to accommodate most heights.

Immobiliser Seat Belt
The innovative immobiliser seat belt makes sure the stairlift won't operate unless the belt is securely fastened. It's a smart safety feature that provides peace of mind for both users and family members because it prevents accidental operation or incomplete seat belt fastening.

Ideal for Narrow Stairs
The Sadler's unique design makes it an ideal fit for indoor curved, and very narrow staircases. Its compact profile allows for installation in spaces where traditional seated stairlifts might not fit. With a Sadler stairlift, you can maintain access to all levels of your home without major modifications to your staircase.

How can we help?
What are the benefits of standing stairlifts?
Stannah is dedicated to providing you with the best solutions out there. The Sadler is a perfect example of this promise. The unique design has been influenced by extensive research with input from occupational therapists and orthopaedic doctors and is helping make thousands of people's lives easier every day.

A Stand-Up Chair
With the Sadler you're neither sitting nor standing. The weight is taken off your hips, knees and back, without you having to lower yourself into the chair. Easy in, easy out.

Seat Assistance
The Sadler offers support as you get on and off the seat. It reclines gently as you sit, offering you extra support, and helps you stand by tilting back up with you. This assisted movement feels natural and helps prevent strain on your joints.

Non-Slip Seat
The Sadler was designed to support you in an upright position with soft ridges added to the seat for extra grip so you do not slide as you move along the stairs. This thoughtful design element creates stability throughout your journey.

Adjustable Seat Height
The seat of the Sadler is regulated to your height when it's installed. It'll always be in the right position for you to use your stairlift with minimal effort and maximum independence in your own home.

Easy Folding
There is no need to bend over to use your stairlift. Folding the arms of the Sadler automatically raises the footrest up. That means it can be folded away neatly with one simple action. This smart design keeps your stairway clear when the lift isn't in use.

Narrow Stairs
The Sadler is ideal for the narrowest of stairs. Since you're not sitting, your knees won't knock against anything. If you can stand on your stairs, a Sadler can usually be fitted on them, making it a perfect solution for homes with space constraints.
