Flexible Stairlift Rental
Need a stairlift for a shorter period? Hire a straight or curved stairlift with professional installation, safety certification and removal all included. It's ideal after a hospital stay, during recovery or while you decide on a permanent solution, and your free home consultation and fitting are carried out by our own engineers.
Stairlift Rental Solutions
Not every stairlift needs to be a permanent purchase. If you are recovering from surgery or an injury, caring for a relative for a limited time, or simply want to try a stairlift before committing, hire gives you safe access between floors without the upfront cost of buying. We offer hire on both straight and curved staircases across Hampshire and the surrounding counties. Our own engineers assess your staircase, install the stairlift, keep it running safely during your hire and remove it when you no longer need it.
Straight and Curved Hire
Whether your stairs run straight up or turn a corner, we can help you find a hire option that fits your home.
For staircases without bends or landings. A straight stairlift uses a standard rail cut to the length of your stairs, so it can usually be installed quickly once your free home consultation is complete, and removed cleanly at the end of your hire.
For staircases with bends, turns or landings. Because a curved rail has to follow the exact shape of your stairs, our engineers will assess your staircase first and talk you through the hire terms, timescales and alternatives, such as a reconditioned curved stairlift, before anything is fitted.
What's Included
Stairlift hire is designed to be simple. Everything you need for safe, reliable access between floors is taken care of by our in-house team.
Your hire stairlift is professionally installed and safety-checked by our own engineers.
Every hire stairlift is certified safe before it goes into your home.
When your hire ends, we remove the stairlift for you, with no fuss.
If your needs change, speak to us about switching to a new or reconditioned stairlift at any point.
