What type of stair lift is best for your needs?

By lemaster • 19 Feb, 2019
For the most part, stair lifts fall into two major categories: straight and curved. If the staircase involved is a straight shot, constructing a stair lift is pretty straightforward. But if the staircase is curved, the stair lift must be customized to best fit the shape of the staircase, so the lift does not encounter any obstacles. If you’re left-handed, it’s no problem at all! We can easily put the stair lift controls on the other side for you.

Choosing Between Stair Lifts & Wheelchair Lifts

By lemaster • 10 Aug, 2018
Stair lifts and wheelchair lifts are both used to transport people up and down staircases. However, these lifts can especially be of use in outdoor settings, such as public access buildings, as well as outside private homes to allow users easy access in and out of the house. Wheelchair lifts typically use much heavier construction, as the lift must support the weight of the wheelchair as well as the weight of the person.

When you’re old or disabled, getting around the house can be difficult, especially when you live in a two-story home. Getting upstairs isn’t as easy as it once used to be, but it doesn’t have to be that way for everyone. There are always new technological advancements developing for those with an injury or physical disability, or of old age, but there’s one that’s timeless: the stair lift.

What to Consider When Adding a Wheelchair Ramp

By lemaster • 18 Aug, 2017
Making the decision to invest in a wheelchair ramp is the first step toward a more independent way of living. Not only do wheelchair ramps provide the freedom of getting in and out of your home whenever you want, they’re also the safest option for wheelchair users. Since most people don’t have a lot of experience with wheelchair ramps, it’s important to know what you need to consider before building one.

As we get older, it gets harder and harder to walk up and down the stairs. Your legs just can’t handle what they used to, but that’s okay! It doesn’t mean you won’t be able to use the stairs ever again.
