Mobility Plus is committed to helping people regain their independence and mobility, and in an effort to meet this goal we offer professional straight and curved stairlift installation services. We understand that being stuck either upstairs or downstairs is the last thing anyone wants, which is why we focus on providing a comprehensive, stress-free, installation process for your specific needs.
Below is a list of our available straight and curved stairlifts:
After you’ve contacted us, we start with an in-home consultation, where our experienced team will perform a thorough evaluation. This step allows us to:
By having a personalized approach, we can ensure that the recommendation we provide will be the most suitable solution for your home and personal needs, and ultimately enhance safety and accessibility in your home.
After getting a clear understanding of your needs, we’ll proceed to take precise measurements of your staircase. This is a critical step, as an accurate measurement will ensure proper performance and safety of the stairlift. The process of measuring takes into account the width and height of the stairs, as well as the height of each step to find the total rise of the staircase. If there are any curves or landings, we take those into consideration during measurements to ensure the rail will be installed correctly. The ultimate aim is to have a stairlift installed that will operate safely and without obstruction.
Prior to starting the install, we need to prepare the home for a safe working environment. The staircase area must have all furniture, decorations, and other obstacles removed to avoid obstruction during the installation process. We will then review the staircase itself to find loose railings, slippery surfaces, and propose necessary improvements. Lastly, during the evaluation process, we can provide direction for other safety features and modifications to ensure that the stairlift will function properly, but that the stairs themselves will be improved.
Once our team arrives for the install, they will go over the entire process with you once more before starting. The installation process is relatively straightforward, as we will need to make necessary adjustments to the stair and the wall to add the rail itself. Once the rail has been installed, the stairlift seat is fastened and aligned accordingly, and then the unit is wired and powered. After this point, we will demonstrate the unit with you, to ensure you understand the entire function of the stairlift, including but not limited to:
Our goal is to ensure that you feel comfortable and knowledgeable after installation, and we can walk away knowing you have very few questions.
To keep your stairlift in working condition, it is important to have regular service and maintenance. At any time that you experience issues with your stairlift, you can contact us to have an inspection and service performed to get your stairlift back in full operation.
Can I Install a Stairlift on my own?
While you could possibly install a stairlift on your own, we highly recommend professional installation for proper safety and compliance reasons. Stairlifts require precise measurements and secure fittings to ensure they operate safely and effectively. We have trained technicians that can handle the entire process for you, to avoid any unnecessary complications from DIY.
What is the Cost of a Stairlift Installation?
There is no direct answer to this question, as there are a variety of factors that can change the overall cost of the service. Factors can include whether the stairlift is straight or curved, the complexity of the stairs, and any additional features you may need or want.
How long does a Stairlift Installation take?
The process can vary, but generally you should expect about 2 to 4 hours for the process. Due to the complexity of the staircase or the specific model being installed, it can increase the price. Our team will keep you informed throughout the process.
Will others be able to use the stairs after install?
Of course! Our team installs stairlifts for easy access for everyone in the home. The rail is installed in a way that doesn’t obstruct the stairs when the lift is not in use, ensuring that all in the home will be able to navigate the house safely and comfortably.
