Types
Types of Stairlifts We Supply and Install
We install domestic stairlifts for every staircase configuration, from the most straightforward single-flight stairs to the most difficult staircases with tight bends, multiple turns or narrow widths. Every home stairlift we supply is a modern, electric stairlift with a built-in battery backup system.
Straight Stairlifts
A straight stairlift is the right choice for a single-flight staircase with no bends or turns. It is the most affordable stairlift for home use and the fastest to install, typically fitted in 2 to 4 hours. Most standard UK homes have a straight staircase, making this the most commonly installed residential stairlift we supply.
The straight stairlift is the best stairlift to start with for most homeowners: simple, reliable and available for next-day installation.
Curved Stairlifts
A curved stairlift is designed for staircases with bends, turns, intermediate landings or spiral configurations that many providers consider difficult or impossible. Our modular rail system is measured and assembled directly on your staircase, with no lengthy wait for custom-fabricated parts.
Next-day installation is available on curved stairlifts, making Adapt A Home one of the best stairlift companies in the UK for complex staircase solutions.
Narrow Stairlifts
Our narrow stairlift is built for tight or compact staircases common in Victorian terraces, older UK homes, and properties where standard chair lifts for stairs would block the passageway. The folding seat, armrests and footrest all fold away automatically when not in use, keeping the staircase clear for other household members.
If your staircase has been identified as difficult for standard stair lifts, our narrow model is the solution to consider.
Electric Stairlifts with Battery Backup
Every stairlift we install is an electric stairlift powered via a standard UK mains socket and kept charged via a rail-mounted charging point. All models include a battery backup system, which means your stair lift continues to operate normally during a power cut. You will never be stranded between floors.
