Navigating a home with a curved staircase can be challenging for individuals with reduced mobility. Curved stairlifts offer a practical solution, enhancing accessibility and independence.
Why Choose a Curved Stairlift?
Curved stairlifts are specifically designed for staircases that feature bends, corners, or intermediate landings. Unlike straight stairlifts, which cater to linear staircases, curved models are custom-built to match the unique contours of your staircase, ensuring seamless movement between floors.
Benefits of Curved Stairlifts
- They provide effortless access to different levels of your home, eliminating the physical strain associated with navigating complex staircases.
- Equipped with advanced safety features, curved stairlifts reduce the risk of accidents on stairs, offering peace of mind to users and their families.
- Modern designs include comfortable seating, smooth ride quality, and user-friendly controls, ensuring a pleasant experience.
- Custom-fitted to your staircase, they maximise space without obstructing the stairway for other users.
