Simple, quick and affordable
Made for one straight flight
A straight stairlift runs on a single rail fixed to your stair treads, not your wall, so there’s no mess and no major building work. Because the rail is cut to length rather than made from scratch, we can usually fit it within a day or two of your survey.
- Slim rail that sits close to the wall
- Seat, arms and footrest fold up out of the way
- Easy-to-use controls on the armrest, plus remote controls for the top and bottom of the stairs
- Hinged rail options if the rail would block a door at the bottom
- Most lifts carry up to 21 stone (135kg), with heavy-duty options up to 25 stone (160kg)

What you get as standard
Free home survey
We measure your stairs, talk about how you’ll use the lift and give you a fixed written price.
Fitting by our own engineers
No subcontractors. Our engineers are trained by Stannah and Brooks and fit the lift in about half a day.
A full handover
We show you and your family how to use, charge and fold the lift before we leave.
2-year warranty
Every new stairlift comes with a 2-year warranty. Reconditioned lifts come with 1 year.
Battery backup
The lift charges itself at the top and bottom of the stairs, so it keeps working in a power cut.
Local aftercare
Servicing and repairs from the same local team, with extended cover plans available.
Not sure if your stairs are straight?
If your stairs have a turn or a half landing, you may need a curved stairlift. Send us a photo or book a survey and we’ll tell you.
Questions
Straight stairlift questions
Can’t see your question? Our friendly team is happy to help.
Monday to Friday 9am–5pm
How quickly can a straight stairlift be fitted?
We can often fit a straight stairlift the day after your free survey. Fitting itself takes about half a day.
How much does a straight stairlift cost?
Straight stairlifts start from £450. Your price depends on the length of your stairs and the seat and options you choose. You’ll get a clear written price at your survey.
Is the rail fixed to my wall?
No. The rail is fixed to the stair treads with brackets, so your walls aren’t damaged and the lift can be removed later if needed.
What if the rail blocks a door at the bottom of the stairs?
A hinged rail can fold up out of the way when the lift isn’t in use. We check for this at the survey.
What happens in a power cut?
Our stairlifts run on batteries that charge when the lift is parked, so you can still use it during a power cut.
