No staircase is "too complicated". If your stairs change direction — a quarter turn, a half landing, even a spiral — a curved stairlift follows your staircase exactly on a rail matched to it. And because new curved lifts are the most expensive to buy, going reconditioned is where the biggest savings are.
Every curved staircase is different, so we start with a careful survey of yours — measuring each turn, the rise, and where you want the lift to park. The rail is then configured to hug your stairs on the inside or outside of the bend, keeping the way as clear as possible for everyone else.
Because of that custom rail work, curved lifts take a little longer to deliver than straight ones — with us it's usually around two weeks, roughly half the typical industry wait. Once the rail arrives, the installation itself is done within a day, fixed to your stair treads with no structural work.
Straight stairs with no turns? You'll want a straight stairlift — it's quicker and costs less.
The rail has to be configured to your exact staircase rather than cut from a standard length. That's also why reconditioned makes the most sense on curved lifts — the saving against a new custom lift is substantial. Ring us for a price guide on your stairs.
Once the rail is ready, fitting typically takes up to a day depending on the number of turns. Like all our lifts, it fixes to the stair treads — no wall fixings, no dust, no mess.
In many cases, yes. Folding seats, arms and footrests help keep a narrow staircase passable for everyone else, but the clear width and turns must be measured first. Our free survey confirms whether a curved lift can be fitted safely.
Yes — unusually for Ireland, we offer curved stairlift rentals as well as straight, which is ideal if the lift is only needed for a recovery period.
