Stairlifts Acton

Stairlifts in Acton for Comfort and Independent Living 

Although a new stairlift can be costly, many of our customers in Acton who have had one installed would agree that it was well worthwhile. 

If you are struggling to climb the stairs at your current home – or are unable to do so at all, having a reliable stairlift installed could make your mobility challenges more manageable, whilst helping you to retain your independence.

However, it’s important to consider the fact that stairlifts vary greatly where build quality, functionality and price are concerned. So, before committing to purchasing a stairlift in Acton, you should think about which model would best meet your individual mobility requirements. And, before hiring a stairlift company to install it, you should also consider the following:

Choosing a Trustworthy Stairlift Company in Acton

Before selecting a company to supply and fit a stairlift in Acton, you should first pay attention to the credentials and accreditations that they hold. For example, here at Domestic Lift Services Ltd, we are members of the British Healthcare Association and the Trading Standards Institute, which demonstrates our dedication to providing the highest levels of customer service.

We are also ELECSA approved. As such, if you decide to purchase a stairlift from us, you can be assured that we will provide high levels of workmanship and safety. We have been supplying and installing quality stairlifts in Acton for over 20 years and also provide a dependable aftercare service, so you can hire us with every confidence.

Authorised or Private? What type of stairlift vendor should I choose?

For those considering a new stairlift in Acton, we would always recommend contacting an authorised stairlift vendor rather than a private seller. An authorised stairlift vendor will typically have extensive product knowledge, which will allow them to offer expert advice, in addition to recommending the stairlift model that best suits your personal mobility requirements.

What’s more, with an authorised stairlift vendor, the service and support will continue well beyond the day of purchase. Their engineers will install your stairlift in Acton, in line with the manufacturer’s specifications and will also be available should you require any repairs, support or servicing in the future. 

Reliable Support and Aftercare from Our Dedicated Stairlift Team

At Domestic Lift Services Ltd, we are proud to work in partnership with a number of market-leading stairlift manufacturers. This enables us to source the parts needed for servicing and repairs with ease and at a fair price.

However, the vast majority of private stairlift dealers do not have these enviable industry connections and as such, have to source parts online at higher prices. If they are able to source the parts needed, it is likely that these additional costs will be passed on to you, the consumer – on top of any labour charges!

Which type of stairlift would best suit me?

When you have chosen the right stairlift company in Acton, you should then consider which type of stairlift would be the best fit for your home layout, personal mobility requirements and budget. With the sheer number of options available, this can be a confusing decision, especially if you have never bought a stairlift before.

To help make things easier, we’ve compiled a quick explainer of some of the most popular varieties of stairlift on the market:

Straight Stairlift

If your home’s layout includes a simple, straight staircase without any landings or tight corners, a straight stairlift in Acton may provide the optimal and most cost-effective mobility solution. Straight stairlifts are easy to operate and provide an ideal solution for many local residents.

Our engineers can install a straight stairlift at your property quickly and easily. What’s more, there’s no need for any structural alterations. And, as they are remote-control operated, there’s no need to deal with any messy wiring, either. 

If you are considering a straight stairlift, we can provide a prompt, reliable delivery and installation service to make the process as easy as possible. Providing your staircase has a suitable layout, we can install a straight stairlift to help you manage your day-to-day mobility challenges.

Curved Stairlift

One of the key differences between straight stairlifts and their curved counterparts is that curved models can be added to more complex staircase layouts. If your staircase in Acton includes more elaborate features such as landings, corners and spirals, a curved stairlift may be the most appropriate option. Thanks to their versatility, our curved stairlifts can be affixed to virtually any staircase layout. 

Here at Domestic Lift Services Ltd, we can supply and install a wide array of curved stairlifts. Our range includes models from market-leading manufacturers such as Thyssenkrupp and Platinum. And, no matter which model you opt for, you’ll benefit from easy operation and smooth travel between floors at your property.

Folding Track, Hinged-rail and Hinge-track Stairlifts 

Some staircase designs require stairlift tracks to extend beyond the staircase to the floor. This is necessary in order to allow the seat to lower enough for users to sit on the stairlift. If there is a door or a passageway at the bottom of your staircase, the chances are either a folding track or hinged-rail stairlift will be required. 

Other home layouts may include a doorway near the bottom of the staircase, where a standard stairlift track would intrude. When this is the case, a hinge-track stairlift is usually the best option. 

Reconditioned Stairlifts in Acton

If you are looking for a low-cost alternative solution, we may be able to offer you a high-quality reconditioned stairlift. All our reconditioned stairlifts have been completely refurbished and offer many of the same features found in our brand-new models, only at a lower price.

Through-floor Lifts

If you cannot operate a stairlift – or have to transport a wheelchair or power chair with you when travelling between floors, you may benefit from having a through-floor lift installed at your property. 

Before having a through-floor lift installed at your home, our stairlift team in Acton will thoroughly survey the property in order to determine what structural alterations are needed. Many of our past customers who have had through-floor lifts installed at their homes have told us that they now enjoy greater mobility and independence.
