  • QuestionWhat if the stair lift delivered to me appears to be damaged or the carton appears crushed?
    AnswerAll deliveries must be inspected upon receipt for damage.  If the product is damaged, call us immediately and we will make arrangements to have it replaced.  If you accept a damaged product, also call us immediately upon discovery and we will work with you to resolve the problem.  Once received, all new stair lifts will immediately become covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
  • QuestionHow difficult is it to install your stair lifts?
    AnswerOur stair lifts require about 3 hours to install for a person capable of using ordinary hand tools. Nothing installs to the wall, only to the stair treads, making installation straightforward and easy to do.
  • QuestionWhat happens when I need warranty repairs/service on my stair lift?
    AnswerNew stair lifts include a full manufacturer warranty which varies by model; we warranty reconditioned and used stair lifts ourselves. If you need service, simply call our specialists at 1 (855) 892-8303 and we will make arrangements to have your stair lift serviced.
  • QuestionCan you assist me in filing for Medicare reimbursement?
    AnswerUnfortunately, Medicare typically does not reimburse enrollees for lifts of any kind.
  • QuestionAre your stair lifts ADA approved?
    AnswerIt is a common misconception that ADA approves lifts.  They do not.  ADA sets the standards for handicap space and other requirements.  All of the lifts we sell can be configured to meet ADA requirements, are constructed to ASME standards, are UL approved, and meet the requirements of A17.1 and A18.  You must specify that the lift you want to order needs to meet commercial standards and codes, and we will work with you or your staff to meet your needs.
