My staircase and landing are very narrow, will there be space for a stairlift?

Table of Contents

Narrow stairs and landings do not normally rule out having a stairlift. Most stairlifts now have folding arms, seats and footrests, which means they can fold away when they’re not in use. Not only does this give you plenty of space to move around, but it also ensures your family can still get up and down the stairs safely.

Many of our stair lifts have slim rail options if space on the stairs is tight. We will discuss this with you in more detail during our survey visit. If you are within our service area please contact us to arrange your free, no obligation survey and quotation.

Nominate Someone For A Free Stairlift

Obam Stairlifts celebrates its 25th birthday in August 2025 by giving back to the community through a special Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative. The family business is donating two new straight stairlifts to nominated causes in Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire, marking a quarter-century of helping people stay in the homes they love.

Anyone can nominate someone they know who would benefit from a stairlift donation. You might know an elderly neighbour struggling with stairs, a family member recovering from surgery, or someone with mobility challenges who can’t afford this life-changing equipment. The nomination process is simple and open to everyone.
