Reconditioned Stairlifts For Straight Stairs
If you have straight stairs in your house and need a stairlift, you’re in luck! Straight stairlifts are considerably less expensive than their curved stairlift counterparts. Straight stairlifts can also be fitted much more quickly because we can use off-the-shelf rails.
With a curved stairlift, rails have to be custom made to your specific staircase. So if you’re in a hurry for a straight stairlift give us a call on 0800 046 3438. Our reconditioned stairlifts start at £1,250.
Reconditioned Stairlifts – Brands
Not all reconditioned stairlifts are equal and we pride ourselves on the quality and value of our reconditioned range. We choose the best makes and models for reconditioning because we know how valuable peace of mind is to our customers.
High quality makes such as Stannah and Thyssen, continue to out-last and our perform other cheaper brands. So we choose the models that last and have high quality components which give our customers the best lift at the most affordable price.
Thyssen Krupp offer a specialist stairlift which we mostly use for difficult and awkward stairs. In some circumstances they are used for straight stairs, but only when no other models will fit. The picture below shows a Thyssen stairlift on straight stairs. You can read more about this particular installation in our case study here.
Reconditioned Stairlifts For Straight Stairs – Stannah 600
We typically choose Stannah stairlifts for our reconditioned range for straight staircases. Stannah are world renowned and for good reason. Their stairlifts typically out-perform other cheaper brands. We prefer pre-used stairlifts which are relatively new. Our reconditioning process involves testing all component parts and replacing or repairing parts where necessary.
Batteries are typically the main problem when it comes to stairlifts breaking down so we replace all batteries in our reconditioned models. Here’s a short video showing our reconditioning process of the most common stairlift type we use on straight stairs – the Stannah 600.
How Long Is The Typical Waiting Time For A Straight Stairlift?
The waiting time for a straight stairlift is typically much shorter than for a curved stairlift. Ultimately it will depend on how busy we are but if you are in a hurry for a stairlift, let us know. We often help people with emergency installations when there’s a more pressing need.
Typically the waiting time is between 1 and 3 weeks but we can often prepare and install a straight stairlift within the same week as you call, if the need is urgent. A straight stairlift is also usually quicker to install than a curved one as the rail is much simpler.
For a straight stairlift, the rail only needs to be measured for your staircase length. With a curved stairlift the rail must be tailored to the individual measurements, bends and turns in the staircase.
Let us know if your installation is urgent and we will do our best to accommodate your needs. Call us on 0800 046 3438.
