Stair lifts can be a life-changing solution for individuals who struggle with stairs, especially seniors and people with disabilities. Whether you're exploring stair lifts for seniors, outdoor stair lifts, or curved stair lifts, understanding your options can help you choose the right model for your home and lifestyle.
Choosing the right stair lift depends largely on your home's layout and your mobility needs. Here are the main types available:
Each type of lift offers unique benefits, and a trusted dealer can help match you to the right model based on your needs and budget.
Medicare generally does not cover stair lifts because they are considered home modifications rather than medical equipment. However, having a doctor’s prescription may exempt you from sales tax in certain states.
The cost varies depending on the model. For a straight stair lift, expect installation to cost between $3,650 and $5,000 depending on weight capacity and travel required. Curved stair lifts are custom-made and usually start around $10,000.
Stair lifts can sometimes be tax deductible if prescribed by a doctor as medically necessary. Always consult a tax professional.
Modern stair lifts come equipped with seatbelts, backup batteries, obstruction sensors, and gentle start-stop movement to ensure a safe and comfortable ride.
