Handicare provides dependable solutions designed for everyday usage, comfort, and safety in homes throughout the UK, regardless of whether your steps are straight, curved, or outdoor. The primary Handicare models we provide to customers nationwide are shown here, along with the optimal settings for each UK property type.
Handicare 1000 Straight Stairlift
The Handicare 1000 is made especially for straight staircases in UK homes and doesn’t have any turns, bends, or intermediate landings. Customers across the UK searching for a simple, space-saving stairlift that offers consistent, seamless floor transitions will find it to be the perfect option.
A comfortable padded seat, simple controls, a slender rail design that maximises staircase space in narrower UK hallways, and safety sensors that halt the lift if an impediment is detected are some of the key features. When not in use, the footrest, arms, and seat fold away to make room on the staircase for other users in busy UK households. Additionally, battery operation guarantees that the stairlift will continue to function in the event of a power outage, providing reassurance for UK homeowners.
Handicare 1100
If you’re looking for a slim, sleek and safe solution for your staircase in a UK home, then the Handicare 1100 is right for you. It is one of the narrowest straight stairlift rail available on the market, making it ideal for tight or narrow UK staircases. This stairlift is powered by a four-wheel drive friction technology and quiet motors for a smooth ride suitable for everyday use in UK properties. As well as a safe, strong, and reliable rail with no tooth rack, which helps make it easier to clean and safer to touch for UK households with limited space.
Handicare 4000 Curved Stairlifts
A custom-made stairlift for curving staircases commonly found in UK homes, such as those with bends, turns, or intermediate landings, is the Handicare 4000. Every rail is made to precisely suit the contour of your staircase, guaranteeing a seamless ride tailored to your UK property.
In situations where a normal straight rail would not be suitable in many traditional UK houses, this model works well for more intricate stair layouts. It provides advanced safety features like obstruction sensors, a comfy seat, a safe seatbelt, and a swivel function for safe entry and exit in line with UK safety expectations. The Handicare 4000 offers a steady and safe ride while preserving as much open space on the stairs as possible because it is customised for your house anywhere in the UK.
Handicare Outdoor Stairlifts
We offer two alternatives for outdoor stairlifts! The Handicare 4000 outdoor, which is for curved outdoor stairs, or the Handicare 1000 outdoor, which is for straight outdoor stairs. Garden stairs, porches, and access to elevated entrances are examples of exterior staircases that the Handicare 2000 outdoor stairlift is intended for. This model enables people to safely enter their property without the risk of walking steps without assistance because it is made to resist changing weather conditions.
It has the same basic safety and comfort features as indoor models, such as simple controls, a secure seat, and safety sensors, together with a sturdy, weather-resistant design and protective cover suited to the UK climate. The Handicare 2000 offers year-round secure access and is perfect for preserving independence outside the home for UK homeowners nationwide.
