A stairlift is a motorized lifting device that transports you between floors while you sit on the seat. Unlike home lifts or stair climbing aids, with a stairlift you are transported along the stairs on rails attached to the steps.Stairlifts are usually divided into two categories: straight stairlifts and stairlifts for curved stairs, with the
latter usually needing to be specially adapted to your staircase (and therefore more expensive).
Stair lifts move at a speed of about 0.15 meters per second between the floors, which can mean that the ride between the floors can take several minutes.

As with most products that need to be customised to the environment, the price depends on the conditions on site.
Curved stairlifts are also often between 100 – 200% more expensive than straight stairlifts, as they usually have to be custom-built for your staircase. (Average comparative prices, public information for the German market 2024)
The typical price range for a curved stairlift is between 7,500 – 14,000 euros, including the statutory warranty period of 2 years. (Average comparative prices, public information for the German market 2024)
Please note that these prices do not include the costs that may arise after purchase. These can be considerable, as it is recommended to service a stairlift approximately every 12 months. As the typical warranty period is very short, you should allow a higher budget than stated above for any repair and service costs incurred after purchase.
Stairlifts often have a warranty period of 2 years. (public information for the German market 2024) Please note that some stairlift dealers and manufacturers may deliberately include very short warranty periods as standard, as they know that your stairlift is likely to require frequent maintenance.
According to the consumer advice centre, annual maintenance and service costs are between 200-300 euros. (Average comparative prices, public information for the German market 2024) In many cases, the actual cost of owning a stairlift therefore starts after the installation has been completed.
Before deciding to purchase a particular stairlift, you should therefore ask about the price of the required maintenance after the short warranty period has expired and always obtain several quotes, as there are large price differences due to different technical solutions. However, the price of one and the same model can also vary considerably.
Studies show that about half of all stairlift customers experience pressure sales techniques from the sales representative.
Typical pressure sales techniques include:
In fact, some stairlift manufacturers are known to store your contact information and regularly contact you for several years after receiving your contact information.

Our muscles are vital. Because we can only move through our muscles. Muscles are also part of many important processes such as swallowing and breathing. If muscle mass decreases significantly with age, this is referred to as muscle atrophy in old age (also known as sarcopenia).
In Norway, around 50 people die every year from falling down stairs. In addition, around 30,000 people require medical assistance after a hip fracture or other injury. These were the hard facts faced by students at the NTNU School of Entrepreneurship (Norwegian University of Science and Technology) in 2012 and 2013. Halvor Wold and his fellow students spent a week studying the subject of falling down stairs and were struck by the extent of it.
