What is the difference between a stairlift, chairlift, home elevator and a vertical platform lift?
A stairlift (or chairlift) is a chair that is attached to a track and moves up and down the stairs. A home elevator is a small elevator that can be installed in your home. A vertical platform lift is a gated platform that carries the user up and down. Click the link below to learn more about these mobility devices!
Straight Stairlift vs. Curved Stairlift
Our most popular option, straight stairlifts are designed specifically for staircases that run in a single direction without any turns, landings, or bends. Curved stairlifts are engineered for staircases with turns, including spiral configurations, fanned steps, or half and quarter landings.
The right choice depends entirely on your home's architecture and your specific mobility needs. During our free assessment, we can help determine which style would work best for your particular staircase configuration.
Outdoor Stairlift Uses & Examples
Your outdoor stairlift provides a safe alternative to slippery, wet stairs throughout the entire year. It's safer than a ramp, more compact than a vertical platform lift, and easier to install since it attaches directly to your stairs rather than requiring wall mounting.
Rain or shine, these durable lifts will transport you where you need to go in all seasons. The chair, motor, and battery are fully waterproofed to withstand rain, ice, and snow without damage.
Common Outdoor Stairlift Applications:
-
From your back porch to your garden
-
Front entrance steps to your driveway
-
Deck or patio access for comfortable outdoor entertaining
-
Lakefront properties to safely navigate steep paths to docks or water access
-
Pool areas to ensure safe entry and exit from elevated pool decks
-
Split-level yards to move between terraced landscape features
-
Beach house access to navigate stairs leading to the shoreline
-
Garage or workshop entrance
Does Insurance Cover Stairlifts?
Insurance coverage for stairlifts may be available if your policy includes allowances for home accessibility modifications.
