Orthopedic chairs - Chair lifts

Chair lifts

A chair lift offers access up one or more flights of stairs via a chair combined with a transportation mechanism. Chair lifts are ideal for anyone who uses a wheelchair or has difficulty climbing stairs.

Chair lifts allow independence across different levels of a building without the need for additional assistance and have become increasingly affordable over recent years. For anyone who requires a wheel chair, it is necessary to have these mobility aids at each floor level. For those simply finding the climbing of stairs a difficult or dangerous task, chair lifts make ascending and descending stairs a stress free operation.

Chair lifts and "lift chairs" (see the index to the left) are two completely different pieces of equipment. For more details about “lift chairs” (also called rise or riser and recline chairs), see the menu to the left. or click on this Main rise and recline (lift chair) page link.
