Straight Stair Lifts
Straight stair lifts are designed for staircases that travel in a single straight run without curves or landings that require a custom rail.
They are often a practical option for homeowners looking for a simple, streamlined solution that fits along one side of the staircase.
Prosperity Health offers straight stair lift options from Handicare, including models designed for different space, comfort, and weight-capacity needs.
Handicare 1100 Straight Stair Lift
The Handicare 1100 is designed with a slim profile and friction-drive system, making it a strong option for tighter staircases and homeowners who want a clean, low-profile installation.
Handicare 1000 Straight Stair Lift
The Handicare 1000 provides another straight-stair option with multiple comfort and capacity configurations, including models designed for indoor or outdoor use.

Curved Stair Lifts
Curved staircases require a more customized approach.
If your staircase includes turns, intermediate landings, spiral sections, or a more complex path, a curved stair lift is designed around the shape of the staircase.
Prosperity Health offers curved options including:
Handicare Freecurve
A custom-fit curved stair lift designed for staircases with turns, spirals, and landings, with multiple seat and style options available.
Handicare 4000
A custom dual-rail curved stair lift designed for more complex staircases and multi-landing layouts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Stair Lifts
What's the difference between a straight and curved stair lift?
Straight stair lifts are designed for staircases with a single straight run. Curved stair lifts use a custom rail designed around turns, landings, or more complex staircase layouts.
Can stair lifts work on narrow stairs?
Some models are designed with slim rails and folding components that help preserve staircase space. Whether a stair lift will fit depends on the dimensions and layout of the staircase.
Do you offer stair lift rentals?
Applicable straight stair lift rental options are available. Contact us to discuss your staircase, timeline, and current availability.
Can stair lifts be installed outdoors?
Certain stair lift models are designed for outdoor use. If you need an exterior stair lift, let us know when you contact us.
How long does installation take?
Installation timing depends on the stair lift type, staircase, equipment availability, and scheduling. Straight and curved stair lifts have different planning and installation requirements.
Do stair lifts work during a power outage?
Many stair lifts use battery-powered systems that charge while connected to household power. Specific operation and backup capabilities vary by model.
Do you install curved stair lifts?
Yes. Prosperity Health offers custom curved stair lift solutions for applicable staircases, including Handicare Freecurve and Handicare 4000 systems.
How do I know which stair lift I need?
