What is a curved stairlift?
Yes, stairlifts can indeed turn and navigate around corners, which is essential for staircases that have bends, curves, or intermediate landings. For such staircases, a curved stairlift is specifically designed to follow the contours and angles, providing a smooth and continuous ride from one floor to another.
One standout example of this technology can be found in our Flow X stairlift. The Flow X is engineered with advanced ASL technology to handle complex staircases efficiently. It utilises a single rail system that is custom-built to match the exact dimensions and turns of your staircase, ensuring a perfect fit. This capability makes the Flow X an ideal solution for homes with spiral, helical, or staircases that aren’t strictly straight.
Our patented Advanced Swivel and Levelling technology sets the Flow X apart from other curved stairlifts, also known as ASL technology. It allows the stairlift to rotate and remain perfectly level while in motion. The stairlift can keep you in the safest and most comfortable position by rotating. The footrest is linked to the seat and swivels together, ensuring your legs remain natural and comfortable.
The Flow X stairlift is designed to work with a wide variety of staircase configurations, making it one of the most adaptable choices available. Offering a range of high-quality fabrics and finishes, allowing you to select the style that best complements your home decor. The rail comes in multiple colors such as stone grey, white, pale brown, and dark brown, ensuring that the rail will seamlessly blend with your staircase. The Flow X can operate on staircases with an incline of up to 72°, accommodating even the steepest of stairs. It can fit on both tight spiral staircases and sweeping grand staircases, thanks to its custom-made rail that follows the exact contours of your staircase.
No matter if you have a narrow, steep, or intricately curved staircase, the Flow X stairlift can be customised to provide a smooth and safe ride, enhancing the accessibility and comfort of your home.
Absolutely! The Flow X curved stairlift can be customised to blend seamlessly with your home decor. The railings and upholstery come in various colours and finishes to match your personal style and complement the existing aesthetics of your home.
The cost of a Flow X starts from £6,000 in the UK. The price of the stairlift depends on factors such as the complexity of the stairs, its features, and the upholstery choice.
The installation time for a curved stairlift varies depending on factors such as the complexity of the staircase and the customisation required. Typically, it takes one day to install a curved stairlift.
