We do NOT recommend this. Unfortunately, there are more and more companies willing to sell their stair lifts directly to the end user. This may seem to provide a nice cost savings, however the risks it introduces far outweigh this savings. It should go without saying that a trained technician will do a much better job than a handy-man/family member at installing equipment that you will grow to depend on everyday. Additionally, by having Access Mobility install your stairlift chair, our customers have the extra confidence of a 1-year labor warranty if anything should go wrong. This warranty alone would erase the cost savings of a self-install.
