A Chair for Stairs can provide freedom of mobility to anyone who has difficulty climbing stairs. You or a loved one will no longer have to worry about falling down stairways or having to stay on one level of your home. The best part is that you will no longer have to depend on a caregiver or family member to be able to move around your own home.

A Stair Lift Chair, as it is also commonly known, is a mechanical device that allows the disabled and elderly to transport themselves upstairs and downstairs with great comfort and ease. The Acorn Stairlift is the world’s leading manufacturer and supplier of stairlifts around the globe. It offers a quiet ride up and down the stairs with smooth starts and stops.

The manufacturer of your stair chair lift can specially design the chair to fit the specifications of your home. There are several different styles available including vertical and curved.

A vertical stair lift has a track installed on the stairway that allows the chair to glide up and down the staircase. Since there are no bends in the track, it is much easier to install and therefore less expensive than the curved stair lift.

The track of the curved stair lift has to be carefully measured, fabricated and custom made to the dimensions of the staircase, therefore, it is much more time consuming and expensive to install.

Before deciding on the right stair lift chair for your needs, check out the websites of various companies who sell stairlifts and compare their products. You may also want to speak to a few people that have purchased a chair for stairs in the past and get their thoughts. Finally, if it is possible, go to a local showroom and test out the different lifts in the store.

After following these suggestions, I am confident that you will make a decision that will make you happy for years to come.
