Are stairlifts safe to use?
All of our stairlifts comply with British or European Standards and in doing so are required to have a number of built-in safety features, a key switch is provided to prevent unauthorised use, for example by children. A seat belt is provided as standard. There are pressure sensitive edges around the footrest which prevent users from trapping their feet between the steps and on the carriage which stops the lift should an obstruction be encountered. There is a device called an overspeed governor which prevents the lift from uncontrolled decent and various other safety devices which ensure your safety.
