Sit/Stand
& Perching Seat Stairlifts
If
bending at the hip or knees presents a problem then this type
of seat could be the answer. It is also used on staircases
that are too narrow to accommodate a standard seated
stairlift.


Be
aware, that to be able to use these options safely you must
have good balance and be mobile enough to get on and off
the lift safely. If you are prone to dizzy spells then this is
not going to be suitable.
It is also worth thinking about how long it will take the lift
to get to the top of the stairs. On a standard set of stairs
you could expect the lift to take about 40 seconds. That
can be a long time to stand for some people.
