There are a range of stairlifts available which allows you to be sure that you will be buying the right one for you. This includes stairlifts suitable for straight, curved, and outdoor stairs, as well as those for people that struggle bending their knees. The stairlift addressed here is the most common; the straight stairlift.

A Straight Stairlift

The straight stairlift is for just that, people with stairs that are straight. It has many features which makes it easy and extremely safe to use.

Some of the features that address safety issues when using a straight stairlift include dual electronic and mechanical braking systems, limit sensors and 24 volt DC operation. The braking systems ensure that there is absolutely no chance of the stairlift freefalling towards the bottom of a flight of stairs. Limit sensors are positioned on the footrest of the stairlift and ensure that if the stairlift senses an obstruction, it will come to a stop to avoid any accidents taking place. Also, the 24 volt DC ensures safety is maintained when using the stairlift because it avoids using mains electricity. This makes sure that if there is a mains power cut, the stairlift will still take you safely and smoothly to the top or bottom of the stairs without getting stranded half way up the stairs.

So all in all, a straight stairlift allows you to travel up and down your stairs easily, safely and comfortably.
