Common Stair Lift FAQs
The most common stair lift questions.
When you buy a Stannah stairlift, you get a stairlift built for your home and your needs.
While some might think that all stairlifts are the same, just a chair to get you from A to B, there's really quite a bit to consider. What you'll need depends on several factors, including your home and your mobility. Perhaps your stairs take a turn and require a custom rail. Maybe you have trouble swiveling at the top of the stairs and a powered swivel is a critical option for getting you upstairs safely. Maybe you have a door at the bottom of the stairs and require a retractable rail to fold up and out of the way. Whatever the case may be, we won't treat you like a number and will take the extra time to make sure that you get the right stairlift for you and your needs, not for us. Give us a call today and schedule your free stair survey.
How much does a stair lift cost?
You’ll find out at the end of your home visit, after your Stannah stairlift advisor has got to know you and measured your stairs. But they won’t give you a vague estimate. They’ll give you an accurate quote for the right stairlift to fit you and your home. They’ve taken the time to listen to you, and to find out exactly how a stairlift would make your life better. Getting a quote from us is completely commitment-free. We want you to have the full picture, so that you can make the right decision for you. We're happy to give you all that information and support you in your decision, whatever that may be.
How to Find the Right Stairlift for Your Home
At Stannah, we take all the guesswork out of the process, making it simple to find the perfect stairlift for your unique needs.
Here's our straightforward approach:
-
Free Home Assessment: Contact us to schedule a complimentary stair survey. We'll visit your home to carefully assess and measure your staircase, helping you discover how to maximize your home's potential.
-
Personalized Design: Based on our assessment, we'll design a stairlift specifically tailored to both your staircase configuration and personal requirements.
-
No-Pressure Quote: Once we understand what you need, we provide a free, no-obligation quote right on the spot. You can take all the time you need to consider your options and make the best decision for your situation.
-
Quick Installation: When you're ready to proceed, our technician will install your stairlift in less than a day. Before we leave, we'll ensure you're completely comfortable operating your new stairlift.
The entire process is designed to be hassle-free, giving you peace of mind from consultation through installation and beyond.
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. Auto insurance plans, worker's compensation programs, and medical trust funds might provide financial assistance toward your stairlift purchase. We suggest reaching out to your health insurance provider to ask about possible coverage options—they could potentially cover part of the expense.
Does Medicaid Cover Stairlifts in Charleston?
Medicare doesn't provide coverage for stairlifts. However, you may be able to reduce your costs through various funding programs. We're happy to help you investigate all potential financial assistance options that could make your stairlift investment more manageable.
Can I Rent a Stairlift?
Yes! Stairlift rentals are ideal for those who only need a stairlift for a short period of time. We offer a variety of stairlift rental options to accommodate a wide range of needs.
