This unit is built to withstand the elements offering a header cover, chassis cover and a large weatherproof cover that protects both the seat and chassis.

We understand that your comfort is very important and a necessary need, that is why we have selected the only cable driven stair lift provided in the market today. All other stair lifts run on a gear rack. The downside to this is that as the gears travel over the rack, gripping to each section, the stair lift jolts and leaves you with a bumpy ride. When your have back pains, leg pains or any pains for that matter; any jolts and/or bumps can cause even greater pain. Our cable unit provides a safe and smooth ride with exceptional comfort. 

Another feature that separates this unit from its competitors is the 90 degree swivel seat that swivels at not only the top, but the bottom as well! This feature allows for a safe entry and exit of your stair lift. It also has safety sensors on each side of the footplate which stops the lift if there are any obstructions on the track or staircase. 

Don't forget the call/send stations at both the top and bottom of the unit making it easy and convenient to bring the stair lift to you, no matter where you need it.

Measuring Guide

Measuring your stairway correctly is essential to ensuring that your new stair lift will install easily and function safely and properly. Please follow the instructions below carefully.

Step 1: Determine Mount Side

Mount Side: From the bottom of your staircase looking up, determine on which side you want the lift installed. Because the lift mounts to the stairs and not the wall, you may choose either side.

Step 2: Measure for Length of Track

Measurement A - Top to Bottom: Stand at the top of your stairs and extend your tape measure down the staircase. The tape measure should lightly touch each stair tread and the tip should touch the landing at the bottom of the steps. The measurement should be from the front edge (nose) of the top landing to the floor at the bottom landing.

Measurement B - Top to First Step: Measure from the front edge (nose) at the top of the landing to the front edge (nose) of the first step.

Step 3: Measure the Stair Tread & Rise

Measurement C - Stair Tread Length: Measure the tread of a stair from front edge (nose) of a stair to back.

Measurement D - Stair Rise Height: Measure the rise of a stair by measuring the length from the front edge (nose) of one step straight down to the next tread.

Number of Risers: Count the number of stair risers on your staircase.

Step 4: Measure Top & Bottom Obstruction Distances

Measurement E - Top Obstruction Distance: Measure the distance from the front edge of the top step to any obstruction on the top landing. Common obstructions include doors, walls or railings.

Measurement F - Bottom Obstructon Distance: Measure the distance from the front edge of the bottom stair to any obstruction on the bottom landing.

Step 5: Measure Width of Stairs
