Straight Stairlifts in Derby

Straight stairlifts are our most popular stairlifts in the East Midlands. Straight stairlift rails have no curves, corners, or bends and can easily navigate narrow staircases due to their slim nature.

These models are slim-built and will be fitted with continuous charge and safety sensors as standard. If you’re unsure, our friendly team is here to advise you on the most suitable stairlift for your home, including the various features available with each model in our range.

There is a range of straight stairlift models to choose from.

Reconditioned Stairlifts in Derby

We offer you the chance to buy a reconditioned stairlift, a slightly cheaper alternative. A reconditioned stairlift offers the same levels of safety and quality, and a variety of models can be adapted to suit your needs and your staircase.

All of our reconditioned stairlifts feature a refurbished motor to guarantee reliable performance, while other key components are thoroughly checked and restored as needed.

Not only that, but you can take advantage of a Low Price Guarantee, which means we will match any like-for-like stairlift quotation provided in writing by any other reputable company within the UK stairlift market.

If you live in the East Midlands and you just need a stairlift for a short period of time, then you can also rent a stairlift. Just call us on 0808 303 7314, and we can help to organise this for you.

Stairlift Servicing in Derby

After installation, it is recommended that you get your stairlift serviced once a year for new models or every six months for reconditioned stairlifts. Often, a stairlift is equipment that is used frequently and thus can become worn, so it is essential that you get it checked by an engineer. Handicare’s engineers can also repair a stairlift if any parts need to be replaced or have stopped working.

Our engineers can service your stairlift to ensure that it is safe to use and that there are no issues.

Stairlift maintenance: Keep your stairlift in top condition

Your stairlift will provide years of smooth and reliable service with just a little care. To keep it in excellent condition, please follow these simple maintenance tips:

• Keep the rail clear: Make sure there are no obstructions along the rail so your stairlift can run smoothly.
• Regular cleaning: Wipe the stairlift rail regularly with a dry cloth or use the hose attachment on your vacuum cleaner to remove dust from hard-to-reach areas.
• Pet owners: If you have pets, regularly clear any pet hair from the rail to prevent blockages.
• Responsible use: Avoid excessive use and ensure children don't play on the stairlift or tamper with the controls.
• Weight restrictions: Always adhere to the recommended weight limit to ensure safe and efficient operation.
• Routine servicing: Schedule regular services to maintain safety and reliability.
