Each curved stair lift is custom built for your individual staircase and is designed to transport the user over winder steps, intermediate landings and around turns in the staircase. While the investment is higher than a straight stair lift, it does avoid the inconvenience and expense of either moving home, or taking on construction to add extra bedrooms or bathrooms to the first floor.
Each custom curved stair lift is priced based on the length of the track, number of bends and any additional features you need. A basic stairway configuration will start around $10,000 and can increase depending on the length and complexity of the staircase.
