The HomeGlide straight stairlift features a sleek aluminium rail with a slim design that gives a modern and clean look to any home. The rail is fitted directly onto your staircase, not your wall, allowing for quick, efficient installation with minimal disruption. This innovative mounting system ensures structural integrity while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of your staircase.
The HomeGlide straight stairlift features generous and luxurious padding that ensures a firm and comfortable seat with plenty of support. The ergonomically designed seat provides optimal comfort during every journey, while the warm grey upholstery is a modern neutral tone that blends seamlessly into every household. The thoughtful design prioritises user comfort without compromising on style.
Engineered with modern manufacturing techniques and technology, the HomeGlide stairlift can be fitted to almost all straight staircases as narrow as 740mm (29 inches). This makes it an ideal solution for older homes or properties with limited staircase width, ensuring accessibility without compromising on safety or comfort.
The HomeGlide straight stairlift is operated with an easy-to-use joystick featuring a comfortable soft-touch grip. Simply move the joystick left or right depending on whether you would like to go up or down your staircase. The joystick is user-friendly and requires minimal effort, making operation intuitive for users of all ages and abilities.
Safety is paramount in the HomeGlide straight stairlift design. The retractable, easily accessible seatbelt keeps you secure during travel, with an integrated sensor ensuring the seatbelt is fastened before operation. The stainless steel buckle is designed for one-handed operation. Pressure-sensitive safety edges on the drive unit and footrest ensure the stairlift stops safely if it encounters any obstruction.
To help you get on and off the chair safely at the top of your staircase, the HomeGlide straight stairlift features a manual swivelling seat as standard. This allows you to rotate the chair away from the open staircase, providing a safer and more comfortable exit point at the top landing. The swivel mechanism is smooth and easy to operate.
The HomeGlide straight stairlift is battery-operated, which means you can still use it during power cuts. The system uses 2 x 12V, 7Ah batteries that are automatically recharged when the stairlift is parked. This ensures reliable operation at all times and provides peace of mind during emergencies or power outages.
For enhanced convenience, the HomeGlide straight stairlift is available with 2 remote control handsets. The slim design handsets can be positioned at the top and bottom of your stairs, allowing you to call your HomeGlide to you at any time. This feature also makes it easy for additional members of your household to use the stairlift safely and independently.
When not in use, the HomeGlide straight stairlift features a compact folding design that allows the seat, armrests, and footrest to fold up, permitting normal use of the stairs by other family members. This thoughtful design minimises the stairlift's footprint and reduces the risk of creating trip hazards, ensuring your staircase remains accessible for everyone.
If you have an obstruction at the foot of your staircase, such as a door, the HomeGlide straight stairlift can be fitted with an automatically powered hinge. Once you have used your stairlift, the lower section of the rail quietly folds away via the remote control handset, leaving the doorway completely clear and maintaining full accessibility.
For added peace of mind, the HomeGlide straight stairlift offers an optional integrated call device that can be programmed with up to three different telephone numbers. This feature ensures you can stay connected with friends and family when using the lift, providing immediate access to assistance if needed.
By choosing the HomeGlide Extra package, you receive all the features and benefits of the HomeGlide standard with advanced premium features to ensure the most comfortable and convenient ride possible. The HomeGlide Extra represents the ultimate marriage of design and functionality for straight staircases.
The HomeGlide Extra automatically upgrades you to the powered swivel seat feature. This innovative technology automatically turns the chair at the top landing as you maintain pressure on the joystick, enabling a safe exit from the chair as the lift automatically rotates towards the staircase landing. No manual effort required - simply hold the joystick and the chair does the rest.
The HomeGlide Extra features an innovative powered linked footrest that connects directly to the seat mechanism. This makes unfolding the chair almost effortless as the footrest automatically deploys with the seat, eliminating the need to bend down and reducing unnecessary strain on your body. The system ensures smooth, synchronized operation every time.
The HomeGlide Extra package offers four different seat height options when used with the powered swivel feature, providing a more tailored fit to ensure the most comfortable seating position possible. This customization ensures optimal comfort for users of different heights and mobility needs, making transfers easier and more comfortable.
To prevent unauthorised or accidental use of your HomeGlide stairlift, the Extra package comes fitted with a dedicated keylock system. This feature enables you to isolate the lift to specific authorised users and is particularly useful when children or grandchildren are visiting, or if your lift is used in a public or semi-public setting.
The HomeGlide Extra maintains the robust weight capacity of up to 146kg (23 stones) at staircase angles up to 45 degrees, ensuring reliable performance for a wide range of users. The heavy-duty construction doesn't compromise on the smooth, quiet operation that HomeGlide is renowned for.
