There are studies that clearly show that the majority of people would like to stay in their own home for as long as possible.
Many have spent a large part of their lives there and are therefore strongly attached to these four walls. However, it is not only their own home that binds people together, but also the entire community around it.
An electric stair climber is an aid for people whose walking function is restricted and for people who are in a wheelchair, for example. The stair climber is used to climb stairs or individual steps. The stair climber is used to climb stairs in a seated position while an attendant holds and controls the device.Stair climbers are flexible stairlift alternatives that do not need to be
mounted on the stairs or on the wall. Unlike a stairlift, the stair climber is mobile and must always be operated by an attendant.
A stair climber is not an aid without risks. In the worst-case scenario, anyone assisting with transport can slip or lose their balance, which can ultimately have serious consequences.
It is therefore important that the accompanying person is well trained and has enough strength to operate the aid.
The prices for stair climbers vary considerably depending on the provider and equipment. There are price differences between models with an integrated seat or integrated wheelchair.
On average, a stair climber with the above specifications costs up to 5,000 euros. Of course, there are also models that cost between 1,000 and 2,000 euros, but with a lower carrying capacity and without special functions.
The risk of falling increases with age, but often people are not yet dependent on a wheelchair or want to remain active and continue to climb stairs themselves.
A stair climbing aid is also a sensible alternative to a stair climber for people who are limited in their walking function but can still walk themselves.
For people in wheelchairs, stair climbers or stair crawlers offer a flexible solution for overcoming differences in height – both at home and when travelling.
Probably the biggest advantage of stairclimbers is that they offer people with limited mobility safety and support while they climb the stairs independently. The patented locking mechanism significantly reduces the risk of falling and no assistant is required to provide additional support – compared to a stair climber.
The TOPRO Step stairclimbing aid saves space and blends beautifully into your home thanks to its elegant design. It can also be installed from a minimum stair width of 60 cm.
Studies show a clear correlation between the level of activity of older people and life expectancy.
Therefore, precautions should be taken as far as possible to maintain activity levels and mobility by using your legs as much as possible. Even for people with limited walking function but who can walk independently, the TOPRO Step stair climber can be a useful alternative.
For people in wheelchairs who are unable to walk, stair lifts, platform lifts or stair climbers can be a good solution for overcoming differences in height in the home.
The TOPRO Step stair climber, on the other hand, makes it possible to maintain stair climbing by providing solid support that allows you to continue walking on your own.
