• ADVERTISERS ANNOUCEMENT • 21 CENTURY STAIRLIFTS ADVICE ON THE BEST STAIRLIFT FOR YOU


We are a long establish family run Stairlift Company that is part of an independent group, that supply leading brand stairlifts such as Acorn, Brooks, Bison, Freelift, Homadapt, MediTek, Minivator and so on; we also service and repair many other makes such as Access, Liftable and Stannah.


There are two types of stairlift, straight and curved, as you probably guessed the curved ones go around corners and over rises where as the straight ones follow a straight line up and down. Costs vary, however because we are part of a group we have some leverage on the manufacturers and are typically 10-20% cheaper than buying direct.


New and recondition machines are available. New prices have come down in recent years this has left a disproportionate gap in the cost of reconditioned stairlifts, where in some cases it is cheaper to buy new rather than reconditioned i.e.curve stairlifts, but on a whole price's are probably lower and better than you think.


We only supply reconditioned machines that are 5 years or younger, all lifts come with a minimum warranty of 12 months and most with 2 years standard.


Installations are un-intrusive; stairlifts are fitted to the stairs not the wall with no cutting or


alteration to your carpets. All lift preparation is done in our workshops, so no mess.


A conventional straight stairlift would take about 1 1/2 hours to fit, large flights and curved stairs a bit longer but no longer than a day.


We use our own engineers to conduct your survey, they are the people that will fit your stairlift so who better to assess your needs than the person who is to do the work.


Surveys are normally done the same or following day of your enquiry, installations can be next day depending on the complexity of your stairs.


On average a survey takes about 1/2 an hour there is no hard sell we are only with you to quote for the installation of your stairlift.


Not being tied to one manufacturer we are able to recommend a stairlift to suit the environment and your specific needs, with extra functions like auto swiveling seats, automatic footplate, interlinked arm rests, hinged rails and bridging platforms, this may all sound confusing but we are here to advise on the best possible solution.


All stairlifts are now battery driven and automatically recharged via a mains power supply, lots of salesmen call this battery backup but that's not technically true, however the stairlift will still work in a power cut, so that's close enough.
