]]> If you’re looking for stairlifts for awkward stairs, our stairlift specialists can help. Most stairs are straightforward and can be fitted with a stairlift without a problem. However, certain staircase setups are narrow or have obstacles at the top or bottom. In these situations a standard stairlift may simply not fit the space available.

In such a scenario, it may be necessary to use a specialist stairlift – one which is more adaptable for small spaces and narrow staircases.

Stairlifts For Awkward Stairs – The Flow X From Access BDD

Access BDD (formerly Thyssen) have manufactured a stairlift which makes the impossible possible! The Flow X stairlift can navigate stairs as narrow as 61cm in width and folds down to just 38cm wide when not in use.

It has a patented technology. This allows it to face the user downwards (or upwards) to avoid the knees clashing with the bannister rail/newel post.

Stairlifts For Awkward Stairs – ASL

The patented technology of the Flow X is known as ASL (Advanced Swivelling and Levelling technology). The lift can pivot, lift and rotate simultaneously which allows it to skilfully navigate even the most awkward of staircases.

Most stairlifts are outward facing too, which means there are limits to the size of a staircase on which it can fit. With the Flow X the stairlift faces downwards/upwards, saving much needed leg room on tight, narrow stairs.
