Will a Stair Lift Work On My Stairs?
The answer in most cases is, “yes!” Stair lifts can be manufactured and installed to fit the overwhelming majority of staircases. One of the major factors that affect the price of your stair lift is the type of stairs you have in your home. A straight staircase is obviously the easiest and simplest to install and therefore, the least expensive.
When your home has a staircase that makes a 90 or 180-degree turn and has a landing in between, these are the next easiest, but require a two chair lift. Many people will ask why they need two chairs for this type of situation. Basically, due to the angle of the track, it is very difficult for the chair to maneuver safely around an entire turn without the use of a custom track. A custom-made track will raise the cost of installation dramatically and is why we recommend the two chair system.
