Stair lift for
spiral staircase
Are you looking for a stair
lift to fit to your spiral staircase?
Many stair lift
manufacturers and suppliers offer spiral staircase stair
lifts.
There are some differences
in specification and cost when compared to a stair lift on a
set of straight stairs.
But in nearly all
circumstances it will be possible to have a stair lift
fitted to spiral stairs.
As with any curved stair
lift, a stair lift for spiral stairs needs to travel along a
curved rail that is fabricated specifically for the set of
stairs it will be mounted on.
This can involve some extra
cost and time - in measuring and making-up the stair lift
rail and then again at the installation stage in fitting the
stair lift.
For these reasons, it is
less likely that you can purchase a used or refurbished
stair lift suitable for a spiral staircase.
That's because unless it was
mounted to an identical set of stairs you will need to have
a custom-made item.
Manufacturers can supply
stair lifts with both inside and outside turns - so that
stair lifts can cope with any changes in direction, such as
between landings, involved in climbing spiral stairs.
