A wide range of quality stairlifts, right here in Liverpool

Music. Culture. Art. Sport. Fashion. Nightlife. 

Liverpool is known for its top attractions, rich history, and iconic cityscape, spanning the tenth largest English district from its spot where the River Mersey meets the Irish Sea. 

Home to a number of exciting neighbourhoods that have sprouted from the city’s industrial roots, such as The Baltic Triangle, Cabin Quarter, and the aptly named ‘Ropewalks’ area (so-called for the ropemaking popularised by sailors in the 19th century) – there’s plenty to wander and explore.

From busy metropolitan shopping centres, all manner of dining opportunities, and must-see attractions, all the way to the historical parks and gardens that pepper the suburbs, Liverpool truly has something for everybody. 

You’d be hard-pressed to find Liverpool off your screens – whether it’s small or cinematic – with the city’s varied architecture and sweeping skyline becoming home to some of the latest blockbusters and much-loved series.

Christopher Nolan’s The Batman, Captain America, Sherlock Holmes, and Harry Potter – to name only a few – have all found their locations scattered across Liverpool’s sweeping streets. 

But it’s not just in fiction that the city makes its mark. Liverpool’s reputation as a popular destination for tourists and locals alike is not exactly shocking news. 

Conde Nast Traveller ranked the city as the third best in the UK back in 2021, taking into account its wealth of nightlife, restaurants, and overall friendliness. 

Of course, we know after an exciting day sampling the very best Liverpool has to offer, coming home and settling down in the familiar comfort of your home is an unmatched feeling.

How do we match you with your perfect stairlift?

When you get in touch to discuss your needs or for a no-obligation quote, if you decide to start your mobility journey with us, one of our friendly engineers in Liverpool will book a survey of your property at a time that is most convenient. 

From here, we’ll find out your exact needs and what your plans are for your top-class stairlift, helping you make a decision on any additional features such as hinged rails or powered seat options. 

This can prove especially helpful for people with limited movement already or for those who are concerned about limited space on narrow stairs. 

We have an unparalleled range of stairlifts available to suit every home and specification, with plenty of experience and passion when it comes to tailoring the best possible mobility solution for your particular needs. 

With 3D imaging software, our team can install curved stairlifts to even the most narrow spiral staircases with no fuss. These fantastic insights give you a glimpse of how your new investment will smoothly fit into the flow of your home before we even fit it. 

This also lets you add additional features as you desire, such as powered perch seating for that little extra help, safe in the knowledge that the finished product is suited for your every need.

All of our hand-built stairlifts undergo rigorous quality and safety tests and comply with all European safety standards, as do all of our mobility solutions – for guaranteed peace of mind.

How much weight can a stair lift hold?

The average stairlift has a weight limit of roughly 22 stone, although many have further capacity to ensure they can accommodate every user.  

At Senior Stairlifts, we partner with leading names such as Handicare, whose top-class models feature additional weight limits of 25 and 31 stone in their XL and XXL options. 

The Handicare 1000 and Handicare 1100 are certified by the international stairlift safety standard EN 81-40 – so you know that they can be reliably used on a daily basis for many years to come.

Do you need planning permission for a stairlift?

This is an excellent question – and it’s one our engineers get asked surprisingly often! 

If you’d like to install a stairlift, you won’t need to request planning permission. This is because the lift itself shouldn’t affect the overall structural integrity of your home and staircase, thanks to the expert work of our engineers. 

However, if you’re applying for a different kind of mobility solution – such as a platform lift – you may have to ask for permission before enlisting the help of an engineer. 

This is mainly down to the difference in processes and overall installation, where you might need to cut a hole into the floor of your property to make enough room for the lift itself. 

This, understandably, can impact the integrity of the building! 

With Senior Stairlifts, you can rest assured that all of our engineers work in line (and are frequently kept up-to-date) with the latest regulations from British Standards Institution (BSI) – so you and your family are always in safe hands.

Does a stairlift use a lot of electricity?

With the current cost of living crisis, considering how much electricity your home is using is something at the forefront of many people’s minds – ours included!

So if you’re thinking of installing a stairlift to help you navigate your staircase more easily, but are concerned about the potential cost, allow us to put your mind at ease. Although a comprehensive stairlift solution could appear to be a huge drain on your overall electrical output, you’d actually be surprised at how little it costs to run it day-to-day.

Whether you plan to install a permanent solution or need a stairlift rental to tide you over for a shorter period, thanks to impressive technological developments in quality stairlifts. This combines the strides made in efficiency standards and the technology behind power-saving devices, making modern stairlifts a great tool to have at your disposal – without making a dent in your budget.

Long gone are the days of clunky chargers or power sources that need to be hooked up to the wall. As our stairlifts use rechargeable batteries, they will not be adversely affected by the 14 trips up and down the staircase on average per day.

It is easy to compare modern stairlifts with everyday appliances like kettles, microwaves, and televisions. However, considering the amount of time you spend using a stairlift versus these appliances, the cost to run a stairlift could even be cheaper – giving you plenty of food for thought.

You see, stairlifts are designed to be left on standby so the batteries are in a constant charge cycle. This is so you never have to worry about coming to a halt halfway up or down the stairs, even in the event of a power cut.

However, if you shut the stairlift off for any length of time, the batteries are likely to lose charge – so when you turn the stairlift back on, it won’t work as well. In this case, you would have to wait for the batteries to fully recharge before using the stair lift again, making it much more useful if you keep it on for maximum useability.

The design of stairlifts makes them among the most energy-efficient appliances on the market. In terms of electricity, a stairlift should cost less than £10 per year (that’s cheaper than a traditional washing machine!) which could set you back £50 per year.

Stairlifts can consume as little as 0.024kWh compared to 0.7kWh (700 Watts) for a washing machine. In comparison, many household appliances use far more power than 24 Watts per hour.

The low running costs of stairlifts certainly provide ample advantages, which may surprise some people.
