Stair lifts make it easy to restore safe access to a second-story or basement when you or a loved one are no longer able to safely navigate stairs on foot. Even better: Stair lift installations are almost entirely construction-free. Knocking down walls or reworking your home layout is unnecessary, so installation can typically occur in less than a day.

Regardless of how simple and quick your stair lift setup will be, knowing what you can expect is helpful. Here’s what you should know about the stair lift installation process. And if you’re wondering, “Where can I find stair lift installers near me?” we’ve got that answer for you, too.

The Top 10 Ways to Pay for a Stair Lift

February 18, 2025 by Arrow Lift

An elegant home staircase with a modern curved stair lift installed creates an accessible living environment.

Many people want to stay in their homes as they age, but taking steps to make that possible is often delayed—usually due to cost concerns. If you’re looking for an affordable way to age in place, stair lifts (also called stairway chair lifts or stair chairs) are a practical solution.

Stair lifts attach to a rail installed on your stairs, allowing a motorized seat to move smoothly up and down without requiring any additional construction. This makes stair lifts an economical choice for aging in place, with prices typically ranging from $3,000 to $7,000 for straight stairs.

A common question we hear is: How do you pay for a stair lift? Let’s explore the best ways to cover the cost of a stair lift and keep your home accessible.

Add an injury to that equation, and getting up and down stairs safely may become downright impossible. And given that many homes and apartments have multiple levels — whether a basement or an upper floor — an injury could make some areas of your home completely inaccessible.

Can You Replace Stairs with an Elevator? Why You May Be Asking the Wrong Question

January 17, 2025 by Arrow Lift

Can you replace stairs with an elevator?

You may find that there are often trade-offs when it comes to accessibility. To make your home accessible, you might have to sacrifice space and invest in new technology. You may give up some room on your staircase in exchange for a convenient stair lift, or you may need a rectangular shaft footprint on two or more floors for your new home elevator. Making room for a garage wheelchair lift might mean giving up usable parking space. Even so, the benefit of your new home elevator or accessibility lift could be the difference between a costly, burdensome move and the joy of turning the home you love into your forever home.
