Straight Stairlifts: Safe and Comfortable Solutions
Straight stairlifts take you up & down stairs effortlessly
A straight stairlift can help you get back to the parts of your house you've been missing. You won't believe how much getting around safely and independently will make your house feel like home again.
What is a Straight Stairlift?
A straight stairlift is a stairlift designed for a flight of stairs without any turns. Straight stairlift rails are cut to match the length of the staircase, while their seats come with customizable features and options.
Straight Stairlift Safety Features: Being safe has never been so easy
What really makes a Stannah stairlift stand out is its innovative features and modern design. Our stairlifts are built to fit your home and your needs in the easiest and most comfortable way possible.
Whenever you want to use your stairlift, simply flip the seat and armrests down, and use the footrest fold button to flip the footrest down automatically. In two easy steps your stairlift is ready to go.
Optional Powered Swivel Seat
You can also add a power swivel function to your stairlift, to make it even easier to get in and out of the chair at the top of the stairs. When you reach either end of the stairs, the chair can swivel automatically, facing you towards the landing. At the top, the chair forms a barrier between you and your stairs, stopping you from falling backwards and making you feel safer as you get up.
How can we help?
Stannah Straight Stair Lift Benefits
We’ve been manufacturing stairlifts for over 40 years. That’s given us time to perfect our stairlifts to make them the safest and most comfortable out there. It’s the little things that make all the difference.

No building work and no mess
Because our stairlifts are installed on your stairs, not your walls. That means maximum security and minimum damage to your house. And it’s quick.

Slimline rails take up less space
Our rails are narrower than you’d expect. They’re barely noticeable on your staircase, leaving plenty of room for everyone else to use your stairs comfortably.

Quick delivery and installation
Stannah is a leading stairlift manufacturer, providing stairlifts in over 40 countries. Once you order your stairlift, you can be sure it will be with you quickly, and we can often install it in less than a day, with no building work.

Fully customizable to match your needs
The rail fits your stairs, but the chair must fit your needs. Whatever you need for maximum comfort in your home, we adjust the little things that’ll make a big difference to you.

Made to fit your home
Whether you’ve spent years or decades in your home, you’ve made it your own. And you can do the same with your stairlift by choosing the colour and upholstery that suits you best.

Easy to put away
Your stairlift folds away neatly - just lift up the seat and armrests and flip up the footrest automatically with the push of a button. That means no bending over, making you safer in your home.
