Simplicity 950 Straight Stairlift

The Simplicity 950 is a straight stairlift which means that it is suitable for use where a stairlift does not need to travel around a corner.

The stairlift track is slim in design and is fixed to the stair. It sits close to the edge of the staircase thereby leaving the staircase clear for other users.

The Simplicity 950 is compact in design and when the stairlift is not in use it can be folded up to maximise the space on the stairs or in the hallway.

All stairlifts are battery operated so they will continue to work in the event of a power failure. The battery receives a continuous charge from the mains supply.

The Simplicity 950 receives this charge irrespective of where the stairlift is positioned on the track. This means the stairlift can be parked on any section of the track when not in use.

The Simplicity 950 is also very easy to use. The stairlift is protected by a key switch, once switched on the toggle control is simple held in the direction of travel. The toggle can be placed on the left or right hand arm.

On arrival at the top of the stairs the seat is turned to face the landing so that you can get on and off your stairlift with ease.

In the event that your staircase has a 90° corner landing at the top with a couple of steps to the final landing it may be possible to fit a platform system. These systems work in conjunction with the stairlift: once the stairlift has reached the end of its travel the platform is lowered and forms a bridge between the stairlift and the landing. This means that the user can dismount the stairlift and walk directly onto the landing.

The system works in reverse when the stairlift is used to travel downstairs.
