Home Lift vs Stair Lift: Why a home lift may be the better solution

In the world of home mobility solutions, the choice between installing a stair lift and a home lift is a common one. While stairlifts have traditionally been a popular choice for improving mobility in a home, compact, stylish and easy-to-install home lifts, such as the Aritco home lift range, are changing the landscape. Let’s take a look at how these two popular mobility solutions compare.

Installation

Installing a mobility solution in your home requires careful consideration of space, structural alterations, and the time involved. Stair lifts can be relatively straightforward to install but may encounter issues with non-standard staircases, such as those with tight spirals or landings. On the other hand, home lifts, particularly shaftless models like those offered by Aritco, simplify the process. Aritco’s innovative screw and nut drive technology eliminates the need for a pit or shaft, reducing installation time and costs. This not only speeds up the installation process but also minimizes the overall footprint allowing for more flexibility regarding placement.
 

Design

When it comes to integrating mobility solutions into your home, design is a crucial factor to consider. Stair lifts, while functional, often stand out and can clash with your home’s aesthetic. Home lifts, on the other hand, offer a seamless blend into your living space. Aritco home lifts, with their compact design and customizable Design Walls and sustainable flooring options, take this a step further. Their Scandinavian-inspired aesthetics allow for a variety of sizes, colors, and configurations, ensuring that your lift is not just a mobility solution but a stylish addition to your home.
 

Function

While stair lifts primarily serve individuals with mobility challenges, their utility is somewhat limited. Entering and exiting can be cumbersome, especially for wheelchair users. Home lifts offer a versatile solution that benefits every member of the household. Beyond assisting those with mobility issues, they facilitate the easy movement of heavy objects, like furniture or groceries, between floors. Aritco’s home lifts are designed with safety in mind, so they are safe for even the smallest members of the family.

Price

Cost is a major factor in deciding between a stair lift and a home lift. While stair lifts are often seen as the more affordable option, the long-term benefits of installing a home lift are considerable. Home lifts are often more affordable than you might think and represent a significant investment in your property’s value. Unlike stair lifts, which may need to be removed and can potentially detract from your home’s appeal to future buyers, home lifts are a sought-after feature that adds to your property value and market attractiveness.

The decision between installing a stair lift and a home lift comes down to more than just mobility. It’s about how you want your home to work and feel. With easy installation, stylish customization options, and the ability to enhance your home’s value, choosing a home lift is about investing in a solution that benefits everyone in your home, now and in the future. Call us at 088-3335050 or Line OA: @aritcohomelifts
