What is a modular stairlift?
A modular stairlift is a type of stairlift that is made up of pre-fabricated sections that can be assembled to fit any staircase. This makes modular stairlifts more versatile, adaptable and quicker to install than traditional stairlifts, which are typically custom-made for each staircase.
The benefits of modular stairlifts compared with traditional stairlifts
- Cost: Modular stairlifts are typically less expensive than traditional stairlifts. This is because they are made up of prefabricated sections that can be assembled quickly and easily.
- Installation time: Modular stairlifts can be installed more quickly than traditional stairlifts – in the case of 24-7 Healthcare, we can install a curved or straight configuration in 24-48hrs. This is because modular stairlifts do not require any custom fabrication, unlike curved stairlifts.
- Versatility: Modular stairlifts can be installed on a wider variety of staircases than traditional stairlifts. This is because they are made up of prefabricated sections that can be assembled to fit any staircase, regardless of its shape or size.
- Adaptable & re-useable: Modular stairlifts can be easily adapted to meet the changing needs of the user. For example, if the user’s mobility needs change, the stairlift can be modified to accommodate those changes. A modular stairlift can be removed and installed into another location with ease.

Some additional benefits of modular stairlifts
- Modular stairlifts are easy to use. They typically have a simple control panel that makes it easy to operate the stairlift.
- Modular stairlifts are safe. They have a number of safety features, such as safety belts and emergency stop buttons.
- Modular stairlifts are comfortable. They typically have padded seats and backrests.
- Modular stairlifts are durable. They are made from high-quality materials and are designed to withstand years of use.
If you are considering a stairlift, it is important to weigh the benefits of modular stairlifts and traditional stairlifts. Modular stairlifts are typically less expensive, easier, quicker to install and more versatile than traditional stairlifts. However, traditional stairlifts may be a better option for some people, such as those with VERY complex staircase designs or those who need a stairlift with a lot of custom features.
