With our expert advice, you’ll find a model that is a long-term solution to help you move around your home easily and, most importantly, safely too.

Our trusted stairlift engineers will guide you through the various models available and fit the one you choose. We are here to help you select and customise the features that best suit your needs.

Straight Stairlifts in Norfolk

Straight stairlifts are our most popular stairlift in Norfolk and straight staircases are one of the most common types of staircases in homes. Straight stairlift rails have no curves, corners, or bends and can easily navigate narrow staircases due to their slim nature.

If you’re unsure, our friendly team is here to advise you on the most suitable stairlift for your home, including the various features available with each model in our range.

You’ll find a range of straight stairlift models to choose from, but all of the models have been designed so they can travel up narrow staircases.

These straight stairlift models have features including toggle switches to allow users to easily control the stairlift, safety sensors that will stop the model if an obstruction is detected, and internal batteries that ensure limited functionality during a power outage.

All our stairlifts offer a perched seat option for those looking for leaning support. Many customers opt for perched seat options because we do not offer standing stairlifts in East Midlands.

Curved Norfolk Stairlifts

Many homes in Norfolk will have a spiral staircase or one that changes direction; in this instance, you will need a curved stairlift. These stairlifts can be tailored to fit your specific needs. As Handicare supplies the stairlifts we offer, we can organise for one of their experts to offer a free home visit so they can take measurements of your staircase and help you choose your preferred model

We provide a variety of curved stairlifts and, similarly to our straight stairlifts, offer unique perch curved stairlifts. This allows those who find sitting uncomfortable to stand and lean against a supportive, perched seat. Other models in our range include the Handicare 4000 and the Freecurve, which are ideal for narrow, curved staircases.

Age Co 4000

• Double rail system
• Custom-built for your stairs
• Powered options to suit your mobility needs
• Suitable for both spiral staircases and straight stairs with a sub-landing
• Standard weight limit of 125kg/19.5st. Heavy duty motor able to carry up to 160kg/25¼ st

Age Co Freecurve

• Single rail design (less than 8cm in diameter)
• Slim, stylish design ideal for narrow stairs and tight bends
• Powered hinged rail as an option extra; allows the stairlift rail to be folded out of the way to avoid blocking doorways or access at the bottom of the stairs
• Standard weight limit of 136kg/21.5st

Age Co Freecurve

Both of these models include a manual swivel seat, a specially designed toggle switch for ease of use, and safety sensors that automatically cut out the stairlift if it encounters an obstruction. There are power options available to ensure continued operation during power cuts (internal batteries for the 4000 and DC power for the Freecurve), and two handheld remote controls, ideal for multiple users.

Once you’ve chosen your stairlift, a Handicare engineer will come to fit it. Installation typically takes around a day.

Reconditioned Stairlifts in Norfolk

A stairlift is an essential aid to help people with limited mobility continue living in their homes, but a reconditioned model is a budget-friendly option. We also offer you the chance to buy reconditioned stairlifts, a cheaper alternative to new models. Reconditioned stairlifts still provide the same levels of safety and quality and models can be tailored to your exact needs.

With the Low Price Guarantee we offer, you can be sure that you are getting the best deal out there because we will match any like-for-like stairlift quotation provided in writing by any other reputable company within the UK stairlift market.

If you need a stairlift for a short period, then you should also look into our stairlift rental options.

Stairlift Servicing in Norfolk

Once a stairlift has been installed, you still need to get your stairlift serviced once a year for new models or every six months for reconditioned stairlifts. This not only gives you peace of mind that your model is safe to use but that it will work when you need it most, as all the parts of your model will have been checked by an expert. To learn more about our stairlift servicing options, please visit our Service Page.

Our engineers can service your stairlift to ensure that it is safe to use and that there are no issues. Each of our stairlifts, including reconditioned models, comes with a two-year warranty, offering you peace of mind from the start.

A common question when considering a stairlift is whether it requires servicing right away, but the good news is that it doesn’t require immediate servicing, so you won’t need to worry about repair costs right after installation. While most providers offer a standard one-year warranty, with our stairlifts, there is a 2-year warranty in place, which includes one free service.

For added protection beyond the two-year warranty, homeowners can purchase an extended warranty for their curved or straight stairlift. Depending on the level of warranty you choose, this can cover various issues, from accidental damage to electrical breakdowns, ensuring your stairlift continues to perform well for years.

Stairlift Maintenance: Keep Your Stairlift in Top Condition

If properly cared for, a new stairlift can provide years of reliable service without encountering any functionality issues. To ensure your stairlift remains in excellent working condition, here are some key maintenance tips:

• Keep the rails clear of any obstructions to ensure smooth operation.
• Clean the rails regularly with a dry cloth or use a vacuum hose attachment for hard-to-reach areas to prevent dust build-up.
• If you have pets, remove pet hair from the rails to avoid clogs.
• Limit the use of the stairlift and do not let children play on it or tamper with the controls.
• Always follow the maximum weight capacity guidelines to ensure safe operation.
• Schedule regular servicing to maintain safety and functionality.

If you encounter any issues with your stairlift, don’t hesitate to contact our customer service team for advice or to arrange maintenance services.
