Frequently Asked Questions
What weight can a platform stairlift carry?
Our standard models can carry up to 300kg, which easily fits a person in a wheelchair. We can also customise the platform size for different wheelchair types.
Can platform stairlifts work on curved or narrow staircases?
Yes. Platform stairlifts work well in tight spaces. We often install them on winding staircases, tight bends, and stairs with steep slopes or several stops. Our site survey will help us find the best solution for your staircase.
How much space does a platform stairlift need?
This depends on your staircase and the platform size you need. Our compact designs save space. Following the site survey, we will provide exact measurements showing how the stairlift fits, both when folded and in use.
What are the power requirements?
Our incline platform stairlifts need a 220V single-phase electrical supply. During the site survey, we check your current power setup and let you know if any electrical work is needed before installation.
Are platform stairlifts easy to operate?
Yes, they are very easy to use. The GTLE has a clear LCD display with optional voice output, so both staff and visitors can operate it easily. You can control it with wireless wall switches or handheld remotes. We also give you full training during installation.
Can they be installed outdoors?
Yes, absolutely. Our marine-graded models are built for outdoor use and can handle harsh weather and coastal conditions. They are perfect for outside steps and seaside locations.
How long does installation take?
Installation usually takes 1-2 days. Manufacturing normally takes 6-8 weeks from the survey.
