the UK’s Specialist Curved Stairlift Company

Yes, the majority of stairlift motors are powered by Direct Current (24volt), which automatically charge when not in use. Therefore, the stairlift will work normally during a power cut.

The minimum width of your staircase should be 660mm (26 inches) in order to accommodate a stairlift. This would also be dependent on the weight and size of the user of the lift.

Baker Stairlifts guarantee to attend to your breakdown within 24 hours, but normally any breakdown would be covered in 2-3 hours.

Our engineers are fully experienced and can install and demonstrate a straight stairlift in under two hours. However, a curved stairlift may take three to four hours to install under normal circumstances. We will be able to give you a better idea when you place your order with us and we have assessed the complexity of the job.

As you might expect, pricing will vary depending on which type of stairlift you need to buy. Typically, independent dealers can be cheaper than manufacturers. At Baker Stairlifts straight stairlifts will generally be priced from £1495 for a brand new stairlift, with a new curved stairlift being slightly more starting at £2495. Of course, these prices are just guidelines as the size and shape of your staircase will be taken into consideration.

A stairlift is a mechanical device for lifting people and wheelchairs up and down stairs. For sufficiently wide stairs, a rail is mounted to the treads of the stairs. A chair or lifting platform is attached to the rail. A person on the chair or platform is lifted as the chair or platform moves along the rail.

Most manufacturers issue a maximum carrying weight of 19 stones (127kg), although at Baker Stairlifts we are able to supply heavy duty stairlifts which can carry up to 30 stone (190kg).

This depends on what we are installing. However, in broad terms, we can deliver a straight stairlift between 2-7 working days and a curved stairlift in around 15-20 working days. Of course, in some cases for a standard straight stairlift we will have stock available instantly and could arrange installation the very next day. We will be able to advise you of the likely installation time when you place your order.
