FAQ About Stairlifts, Chairlifts, Stairlift Repairs, and Service In Cape May, Cape May Court House, Ocean City, Sea Isle City, Villas, Wildwood, and the Surrounding Areas
Adding a stairlift or chairlift to your home in Cape May, Cape May Court House, Ocean City, Sea Isle City, Villas, Wildwood, and the surrounding areas can be a very helpful addition, but that doesn’t mean that homeowners and family members won’t have questions about them.
Here are some answers to some frequently asked questions that we get at AABA Family Medical related to stairlifts, stairlift service, and more.
Because every home is unique, the stairs in those homes are also unique. This is why at AABA Family Medical we have our technicians measure each project to ensure that the stairlift will be made to the correct size, taking into account any landings and other measurements. Each stairlift or chairlift that we install is a custom fit for your home.
The stairs that the stairlift will be installed on will need to be at least 30 inches wide. We will be sure to measure your stairs to ensure that a chairlift will fit and work on your stairs before beginning installation.
AABA Family Medical handles both Acorn and Bruno stairlifts. Acorn standard stairlifts can accommodate up to 280 pounds with their HD versions going up to 300 pounds. Bruno standard stairlifts can handle up to 300 pounds with their Elite model handling up to 400 pounds. Our team can help you determine which model is the best for your unique situation.
Yes, all of the different stairlifts that we install come with a battery unit to allow your stairlift to be used several times during a power outage.
Maintaining a stairlift is fairly straightforward. The gearing on the stairlift itself requires greasing annually to ensure proper operation. The battery in your stairlift should last for several years before needing to be replaced. And of course, having our technicians perform an annual inspection is good to make sure no problems are found. Our team can also do stairlift repairs if needed.
The terms stairlift and chairlift are often used interchangeably. Sometimes a chairlift refers to a chair that lifts the occupant to a semi-standing position; these are also sometimes called lift chairs.
