Comfortable Chairlifts for Straight & Curved Staircases
120–160 kg stair lifts with compact folding seats, powered swivel and battery-backed DC drive—engineered for villas, clinics and public access upgrades. Free site visit & quotation across all Emirates.
What Are Stair Lifts?
Stair lifts (chairlifts) carry a seated passenger along a rail fitted to the stairs, not the wall. With soft start/stop control, foldable seat/arm/footrest and powered swivel at landings, they provide safe independence on straight or curved staircases—without major civil works.
Key Characteristics
Compact Folding Design
Seat, armrests and footrest fold to minimise stairway projection.
Smooth & Quiet Drive
DC rack-and-pinion with soft start/stop and precise landing level.
Safe Access
Powered swivel seat at landings, seat belt, overload & obstruction sensors.
Battery Backup
Multiple trips during outages; automatic charging on the rail.
Straight & Curved Rails
Single-rail straight lines or custom bends for landings and spirals.
Common Uses
- Villas and private residences (independent living)
- Clinics, rehabilitation centres and care homes
- Mosques, schools and community buildings
- Public access retrofits where lifts aren’t feasible

Frequently Asked Questions
How long is installation?
Straight rails are typically installed in a day; curved rails usually 1–2 days after fabrication.
What if the stairs are narrow?
We assess width and projection; folding seats and hinged rails help in tight spaces.
Is maintenance complex?
Routine checks on batteries, safety edges and drive—covered under AMC plans.
