There are many reasons why one might choose to have a stairlift installed in the home, and with Associated Stairlifts, it is now easier and more convenient than ever to make the decision for assisted mobility.
Many homes in the UK have multiple levels and as people age, navigating the stairs can become a risk due to a decrease in mobility, muscle weakness, or instability. In this case, using the stairs becomes a daily problem and after a certain amount of time, many people will simply choose to avoid using the stairs altogether.

This can cause the top levels of a home to become obsolete, fall into disuse, and eventual disrepair.
In order to avoid this scenario, many seniors opt for downsizing, moving into a single-level house, or even choosing to make the move into a retirement facility. Unfortunately, these decisions often come with a hefty price tag. Additionally, moving can be incredibly stressful. For many seniors, independence is of the utmost importance, and being able to remain in their home is also a high priority. A stairlift is one of the easiest, quickest, and most convenient ways to ensure that seniors can remain in their homes and suffer as little disruption to their independence as possible.

Additionally, being unable to access either the basement or the second level of a home without the assistance of a friend or family member, can be embarrassing to some or make them feel like a burden. A stairlift easily solves this problem.

“At Associated Stairlifts, we value our country’s senior citizens,” says Andrew Lewis, Director of Associated Stairlifts. “We pride ourselves on our next-day installation offer that allows people to purchase a stairlift and have it installed in record time. This means less time worrying and planning, and more time to explore their independence.”

Stairlifts are not only convenient, but they’re also very easy to use. The only thing a person intending to use a stairlift will need to do is to sit down on the seat, fasten their seatbelt for security, press and hold the switch which in most models is located in the armrest, and the seat will smoothly move either up or down the stairs. Once the top or bottom of the staircase has been reached, the user will simply release the switch to stop the movement of the lift.

Not only will Associated Stairlifts come to your home to install your chosen stairlift the day after purchase, but they will also ensure the user is completely comfortable with its operation before departing.
