Take control of life’s up and downs
HOME lifts are a stylish alternative to stairlifts, and a great option for homeowners who want to futureproof, so they can remain in their home well into retirement. With a lift, those becoming less mobile can also regain the freedom of independently moving between floors, smoothly and at the press of a button. These lifts are compact and versatile, so can be positioned in a range of locations in the home. Most people choose the standard sitting room to bedroom configuration. But you can also travel from the hall to the upstairs landing, for example, or have the lift in your garage. Space permitting, why not make use of a void in the turn of your staircase? Others choose to hide their lift away behind cupboard doors. The lift car is robust and elegant, while the supporting rails are lightweight and extremely strong. Metalwork is typically painted a neutral soft grey to complement both traditional and contemporary interiors. So a home lift can be a real upgrade to any property. It is also very easy to use. A single control panel inside the lift car houses the up and down buttons. They are set up to ‘hold to run’, meaning as soon as you release them, the lift stops, offering total control. And lifts usually come with two remote controls as standard.
