Frequently Asked Questions


1) Are there any structural modifications needed before installing a lift?

No. There are not any modifications which are required, since stairlifts do not attach to the wall. The stairlift is installed into existing stair treads.

Someone have a health condition that meets their definition of handicap and qualifies for Social Security disability benefits when they've worked in a job that was covered by Social Security. Benefits may be covered in the event you are on impairment or injured. Since SSI is a needs-based plan and an SSI recipient must have limited income and resources, eligibility for the Plan for Achieving Self-Support (PASS) allows a person with a disability to attain an occupational goal. The money that's set aside under a PASS may be used for anything that results in an occupational objective and may be used to cover home adjustments via an SSI savings strategy.

11) Does it increase or decrease the value of my home?

The overall worth of your house won't depreciate. In case you plan on selling your Yuma home, realtors used to urge that a stairlift be removed prior to putting your house on the Arizona marketplace, nevertheless given increased life expectancy, this isn't any longer the case. You move or can even completely remove the stairlift with no signs of installation when you desire or want it. Realtors can list that the stairlift is a high utility value for physically disabled people and the house is suitable for living that is accessible independent and when a purchaser needs it removed, then that possibility is offered by them.

12) Are there any good options for used or recycled lifts in my area?

Yes. Stairlifts that are recycled and reconditioned are an option and are available. Custom designed curved stairlifts are more difficult to resell, as the angles around the curves truly need to be a very close match. A recycled stairlift is not fundamentally bad only because it's used and offers a lot of advantages. Many Arizona stairlift companies resell them used and buy stairlifts back. A stairlift that was used may have been removed and resold, since the person who depended on the raise improved within their condition, they moved, or the demand for it was temporary. They cost considerably less than new models. When buying a lift that is used, be sure you ask some questions. Ask about their weight and the prior owner /height demands. Ask about the age of the used model. We recommend that you don't purchase one which is 10 years old, because that version is close to retirement. Inquire questions that are mechanical about the condition of the battery, the working shape of the lift, the tracks, and its own motor. You can shorten the span of tracks if necessary, as mentioned before. However, ensure you adhere to quite a measured approach for cutting tracks, because a mistake will cost you.
