What is a staircase lift?

Stair lift is a chair that is connected to the track that is attached to the staircase. No structural changes are required to implement the staircase lift into the house. The staircase has a number of purposes. Most often it is used for transport and up the stairs that can find difficulty with it. The power to drive the elevator is usually a normal network energy, although backup batteries can also be mounted in the event of power failure. The staircase can be placed on both sides of the staircase. It provides the peace of mind that fragile and older people will not fall down the stairs. The staircase also alleviates the worries of an older loved one when you can't be there to help him with the staircase. When the stairs become an obstacle to the elderly, the staircase elevator is an inexpensive alternative to the transition to a single -storey house or to the center of assisted housing.

Stair lift can be mounted on any type of staircase configuration.Many staircases are either straight or curved or have a medium landing. Direct and curved staircases are simple enough, but if a middle landing occurs, a separate staircase lift may be required for each staircase. The staircase is attached directly to the staircase and requires rails every 3 to 4 ft (about every meter).

If the elevator is not used, it can be folded up to store the location. The elevator chair usually has built -in safety features such as a seat belt and a swivel seat lock. There are also obstacles that prevent the elevator from driving if something blocking its path. Finger pressure control on the operating washers ensure that the stroke stops if you take your finger from the button.

Stair Rifts are designed to last for many years with minimal maintenance. The elevator should also come up with the manufacturer's warranty if something breaks up. It is a very robust piece of machine and can accommodate weight up to £ 375 (170 kg) in capacity.
