Frequently Asked Questions
About Stair Lifts
How Much Does A Stair Lift Cost?
The answer is – It depends…… Modern stairlifts come in all shapes and sizes, so determining the cost of a chair lift for stairs depends on the consumer's needs AND the staircase involved in the installation.
As a general rule, you should plan on budgeting somewhere between $2,000 and 5,000 for a professional straight-rail stair lift installation, and $10,000 to $13,000 for a curved-rail stair lift installation.
How Long Does Installation Take?
Most straight stair lift installations take only a few hours, and curved stair lifts can be installed in a day.
Can I Install It Myself?
It is possible to buy a straight stair lift and install the unit yourself. We often receive calls from people who were lured in by the low cost, only to find that the stair lift does not fit their staircase or the unit does not work correctly. Even worse, the seller either offers no assistance or stops responding altogether, leaving the customer stuck with a dysfunctional, dangerous piece of machinery. The State of MN requires a Permit and an Inspection of this type of mobility equipment. In order to get this, you must have an Elevator License with the state of MN.
Many manufacturers may also void your warranty if you do not have it installed by an authorized dealer/ licensed professional.
What Are The Best Stairlift Brands?
Check here for the best stairlift consumer reports with stairlift reviews on the web.
Can I Buy A Stair Lift If My Stairs Have Curves Or Turns?
Yes, there are specific stairway lift models that are designed to fit staircases that have curves, turns, or intermediate landings. These types of chairlift models have rails that are custom-designed to fit the exact design of your own staircase.
How Often Does My Stairlift Need Servicing?
Your stairlift needs servicing every 6-12 months, depending on the stairlift make and model. This will be detailed in your stairlift manual.
Troubleshooting Beeping?
If the power goes out, the stairlift will start to beep, indicating that it is no longer charging. You can temporarily stop the beeping by turning off the Battery Isolation Switch on the stairlift – it's the large white switch below the seat. If your stairlift has two tubular rails that go around corners, you have a curved stairlift, and the switch will be on the front of the stairlift. If it's straight, it'll be on the back side.
ONLY TURN OFF THIS SWITCH IF YOU CAN REACH IT SAFELY!
Remember to turn the switch back on when you want to use the stairlift.
What Guarantee Or Warranties Do I Get With My Stairlift?
Reconditioned /Used Install Warranty:
- 3-year period on the drive train

My stairlift was fitted by another company. Do you look after maintenance on these lifts?
Yes! In fact, we receive numerous calls of this nature from clients who are not satisfied with their original stairlift installer company, or they are unable to get support after installation. Our customers are satisfied with our professional, fast response and follow-up, and prefer Starlift to larger mobility chain companies as we are a local, family-run business.

Are There Cost Savings Available For Disabled Veterans?
Yes—In most cases, the Department of Veterans Affairs gives cash grants to veterans for home mobility devices. You can look at these 3 programs for details: the Home Improvements and Structural Alterations grant (HISA), the Specially Adapted Housing grant (SAH), and the Special Home Adaptation grant (SHA). Qualified vets can get both a HISA grant and an SAH or SHA grant.
To get these grants, apply using VA Form 26-4555 and send it to your VA regional office. For more information, call 1-800-827-1000.
Starlift is proudly partnered with the DAV and accepts donations for Veterans! We offer a Veteran discount on used/refurbished mobility equipment installs through our Veterans program. Call 888-778-2475
Does Your Company Rent Stairlifts?
Yes, we offer a stairlift rental and lease program.
Call for additional information. 888-778-2475
Can A Stair Lift Be Installed Outside And If So, Will It Be Protected?
Yes, there are access lift stair-lift models that can be built on a straight or curved outdoor staircase. Outdoor stair lift models are just like indoor models. The only difference is that the outdoor models are built to withstand the outdoor elements, even in Minnesota. There is also a cover that comes with the lift to protect it when it is not in use.
What Are The Electrical Requirements?
A common household 120-volt outlet is all that is needed.
What Are The Different Types Of Stairlifts?
Stair lifts and mobility equipment come in different models to fit many stair formations. Each person must consider their architectural space, lifestyle, and other factors when deciding which type of access lift is right for them.
Straight Stair Lift
Straight stair lifts are designed to go up and down only on straight staircases. Straight lifts are trimmed to fit the staircase, so they can match the exact length of the stairs where installation is taking place.
Straight chair stair lifts are not custom-made but are instead mass-produced. They're also easy to ship and install. They cannot, however, accommodate landings, curves, or turns—but their modular design and ease of installation make them the most economical variety of lift chairs.
Curved Stair Lift
Curved staircases, stairs with landings, and any staircase that turns or varies from straight all require a custom-made unit to fit that particular staircase. Stairlift companies use a variety of special tools and methods to determine the exact curvature of the stairway and then install the railing to fit. Each chairlift unit requires extensive planning and design to ensure the home lift fits the particular staircase where it is being installed.
Standing Stair Lifts
A standing stair lift, also known as a "perch lift," is very much like a chair lift, except that it provides a smaller platform that mostly only allows the passenger to stand as they move up and down the stairs. They're useful in a variety of different settings:
- Narrow Stairs: If a set of stairs is especially narrow, it may not accommodate a seated stair lift. In this case, a standing stair lift can usually work provided that there is enough headroom for the user to stand erect on the platform.
- Health Conditions: Some health conditions make it difficult for people to bend their knees. Standing stair lifts allow you to go up and down stairs without bending your knees or sitting.
- Conditions: Some people feel more comfortable standing than sitting, and therefore prefer standing stair lifts.
Perch lifts function in much the same way as standard stair lifts, with the same features. Perch lifts have armrests for balance and comfort, and braking mechanisms that prevent the access lift from running into someone or something on the stairs.
A Stair lift is a moving mobility stair chair or platform lift for stairway access to travel to different levels of a home and is sometimes called an automatic chair, automatic stair lift, stairlift, chair lift, curved rail stairlift, disabled lift, elderly lift, handicap lift, home stair lift, inclinator, outdoor stairlift lift, perch stairlift, ramp lift, seat lift, stair chair, stair elevator, stair glide, stairlift, stair rider, stair stepper, stair climber, stair elevator, staircase lift, stairway chair lift, stairway lift, stair chair, stair climber, stair elevator, stair glider, stair glide, staircase chair lift, stairlift, stairs chair lift, stairway chair lift, standing lift, straight rail stairlift, super glide and wheelchair lift.
Most carriages have a chair seat with folding arms and a folding footrest for space-saving, so others in the household can easily use the stairs as normal. In addition to the characteristic interior straight-rail stairlift, some special stairlift models include a stand-on platform, a multi-use sit-or-stand stairlift, a 'stand stairlift', a "perching" seat stairlift (also known as a "perch" seat stairlift), an outdoor stairlift, and a curved-rail stairlift for curved staircases.
What Are The Difference Between A Stair Lift And A Wheelchair Lift?
What Is The Longevity And Maintenance?
Stair lifts are used daily and, like any expensive piece of machinery, may eventually wear out. Taking care of your assistive technology may therefore involve performing some maintenance. If you're new to lift chair ownership and unsure how to care for your machine, you can find much of this information in your owner's manual. The owner's manual will tell you how to clean your lift, what tools can be used for cleaning, how to perform small maintenance tasks yourself, and what problems must be addressed by a professional with Stairlift repair services. Here's a sampling of the types of DIY maintenance you might encounter if you install a stair lift in your home.
Clean the Chair with a rag.
Stairlift owners should use a dry microfiber cloth to clean the seat and controls.
Tune-Ups
Like any other expensive piece of equipment, stair lifts need regular tune-ups to keep functioning properly. Have a stair lift tech come to your home regularly, even if you're not experiencing problems with the unit.
Tighten Nuts and Bolts
Check your Chair periodically for loose screws, nuts, and bolts. Make adjustments as necessary, but be careful not to over-tighten. Over-tightening can lead to stripped screws.
Clean the Rails
The rails on your stair lift help the Chair move up and down, and keep the machine functioning properly. If the rail becomes dirty, cleaning can become difficult. Use the rag to wipe off any dirt from the rail. Push a small corner of the rag into the rail and then run the rag up and down the rail with a screwdriver to help.
In some cases, your cchair'srail may benefit from a light spray of lubricant. Use only lubricants that are specifically mentioned in your owner's manual. Failure to follow the advice and suggestions in the manual can void the warranty.
