North Yorkshire Rental stairlift installation

We initially fitted a rental stairlift for Mr Waite in his home in North Yorkshire in 2016, and he contacted us for help again recently.

Although the previous stairlift we fitted had helped Mr Waite stay in his home for several years despite his worsening arthritis, he now needed more help and came to us for advice.

He was beginning to have trouble sitting down on the stairlift and standing up again to get off it. We suggested a sit-stand stairlift so that Mr Waite could stand on the stairlift without needing to cause pain by sitting.

The Brooks Lincoln sit / stand stairlift is a special stairlift built specifically to overcome problems the customer may have with sitting and standing from a sitting position. The stairlift is especially helpful for customers with arthritis, and also useful after a knee or hip operation. The stairlift is built to allow the customer to safely stand on the footrest, whilst holding onto a special folding security bar for stability.

It can also be used in the seated position, and so it is ideal for multiple users with different requirements to use the stairlift.

We replaced the previous stairlift with the Brooks sit stand stairlift and Mr Waite found it much easier and more comfortable to get up and down the stairs.

“I am pleased I asked for help and Rental Stairlifts were able to find a way to get around the problem.” said Mr Waite.
