Stairlift / chairlift

[kn1106 0]

Hi all, just curious anyone using stairlift/chairlift for old folks to go up the stairs especially those staying in 3 to 4 storey.  
What is the cost, does it good and is it expensive to maintain? 

If you are not using any of this lift, or your house do not have granny room, how do you solve problem with the climbing up and down the stairs. Thanks.

you can search online for companies who does this type of lift and get a quotation from them. 
 

best is plan to have a granny room on the ground floor. if don't have and there is space, then renovate to carve out a granny room.

alternative is to renovate to add a lift in the house.

for new builts/reconstructions, cater for a lift. this will solve the issue of not needing a granny room on ground floor

Hi kn1106

So did you install the stairlift/chairlift in the end?

Am also considering this option as installing a new lift in the house would be difficult due to time/space/budget constraints.
