Stair Lift Prices

How much does the ASC stair lift cost?

Professional installation by certified (and licensed where applicable) installers is included in the cost of the ASC stair lift. There are many factors which influence stair lift prices including electrical wiring, shipping cost, length of the stairway, whether your stairs curve, etc. However, even the most complicated installations usually pay for themselves in a couple months compared to the cost of a fall or an assisted living facility.

Why don’t you have the price listed on the website?

There are many factors that go into deciding the cost of the ASC. The length of the rail varies with every home, as the rail is fitted for your staircase. Some homes need a curved stair lift, while other staircases need a straight stair lift. The electrical system will need to be inspected too. There are other factors which could make a difference in the price too. As you can see, there are many variables which influence the final cost of the ASC installation.

How to Use a Stair Lift

How do you exit the ASC at the top landing?

The ASC stair lift is designed with a swivel seat so the user can plant both feet firmly on the floor before exiting the chair. The seat also acts as a barrier as it protects the user against falling down the stairs. Unfortunately, many other stair lifts drop their occupant off right on the top or bottom step – leaving open still, the chance for a fall.

What happens if the power goes out?

You’ll enjoy peace of mind knowing that your ASC is equipped with a battery backup device, so it will continue working even when the power goes out.

Does it work outside?

Yes, the ASC lineup includes a model that is rated for outdoor use.

Can the arms be removed from the chair?

No. The arms of the chair are essential for safety when getting in and out of the chair. Also, the controls are located on the arm. The arms can be folded up when the chair is not in use. Additionally, the stair lift can be configure for either right or left handed people.

Is the speed of the chair adjustable?

For safety reasons, we only produce stair lifts that go one, safe speed. Most customers find the speed of the stair lift to be very comfortable.

What if there are two people in my home that need the stair lift?

The ASC comes standard with two remote controls. If the ASC is downstairs because your spouse is watching television, and you are upstairs, simply use the remote control to bring the ASC upstairs.
