What Our Customers Say
Absolutely amazing service! We had a gentleman named Scott. Honestly can’t thank him enough, not only for the service but at the time my nan had a serious fall. Scott rung 999 straight away and done all he could for my nan.Scott then returned as soon as my nan came out of hospital to show how to use the stairlift. Pleasure of man 2 meet. Would recommend this company to anybody x
Sam Thomas
From measuring up on the Friday to having the stairlift fitted on the Monday, Jordan and Karl were excellent. They were very friendly, helpful and efficient. I would certainly recommend Senior Stairlifts. There was no hard sell and I was pleasantly surprised by the cost.
Brenda Hawken
Our thanks to Senior Stairlifts for outstanding service. We phoned at 9:30am to say that our stair lift had stopped working, and by 6pm service agent Carl had diagnosed the problem and repaired it. He was very prompt and let us know almost to the minute when he would arrive. We were delighted with the service we received.

Platinum Ergo Curved FAQ
The Platinum Ergo Straight is more than just a way to get up the stairs—it’s a complete comfort and mobility solution. Unlike many standard stairlifts, the Ergo features a contoured, ergonomic seat that provides excellent support for your back, hips, and legs. This thoughtful design reduces pressure points and improves posture, making it ideal for long-term use.
The lift operates using a smooth, rack-and-pinion drive system, giving you a gentle, quiet ride every time. It also runs on rechargeable batteries, so it continues to function during power outages—a major benefit if you rely on it daily.
And because it’s designed and manufactured in the UK, you’re investing in a product that meets high quality and safety standards, with local support and service to match. Whether you’re planning ahead or responding to an urgent need, the Ergo Straight is a dependable, comfortable, and stylish choice.
Yes, the Platinum Ergo Straight is designed to fit most standard straight staircases. It’s ideal for staircases with no turns, curves, or intermediate landings. During a free home survey, a trained installer will measure your staircase and determine the exact rail length needed.
One of the key benefits is that the lift is fitted directly to the stair treads, not the wall. This means minimal disruption to your home and quicker, easier installation—usually completed in just a few hours.
If your staircase has a doorway at the bottom or limited space, there are custom options available, like a hinged rail, to keep the pathway clear when the lift is not in use.
The Ergo Straight runs on a battery-powered system, which means it will keep working even if your home loses electricity. The lift’s batteries automatically recharge when it’s parked at the top or bottom of the stairs. In the event of a power cut, you can still make multiple trips—ensuring you’re never stranded upstairs or down.
Battery-powered stairlifts are not only more reliable during outages, but they’re also quieter and smoother to operate. You’ll hardly notice it running—but you’ll definitely notice the peace of mind it provides.
Absolutely. The Platinum Ergo Straight Stairlift is built with safety as the top priority. Here are just a few of its built-in features:
-
Obstruction Sensors: Automatically stop the lift if anything is blocking its path.
-
Seatbelt: A secure, easy-to-use seatbelt is included on every model.
-
Swivel Seat: The seat can be rotated (manual or powered) at the top for safe exit and entry.
-
Safety Edges: These detect pressure from objects or limbs and stop the lift accordingly.
-
Key Switch (Optional): Lets you disable the lift for safety around children or guests.
Every unit is rigorously tested and installed by certified professionals, ensuring complete reliability and peace of mind.
