Adopt a Stairlift for 2012

Today on the stairlift farm we have mainly been considering the fate of our young stairlifts.  

We treasure each and every one of them but the time comes when a young stairlift needs to leave the farm and find a home where it can be happy and fulfilled.


Several of our young stairlifts have moved into lovely new homes this week... but there are others still waiting to be homed. 


Maybe you've thought about adopting a stairlift in the past but weren't sure how to go about it, so here are a few pointers to help you with your decision making.


The best place to start is with a visit from the the Superstair Boss. He will come and look at your staircase and measure up the space, then have a cosy chat with you about all the young stairlifts and which one would fit in best with your family and home. He always brings along some family albums with lovely pictures of the stairlifts. You don't have to decide right away. We'll wait for you to let us know. 


Once you decide to adopt, your new stairlift can often join you within a week!
Once installed in its new home, your stairlift is pretty easy to care for and will arrive fully trained.


The most important thing your stairlift will need from you is regular exercise. A stairlift is a great companion for your journeys up and down stairs, so generally this isn't a problem. Many people also find that visiting friends and relatives - especially young ones - are more than happy to take the stairlift for a ride or two!


Another essential is to make sure that your stairlift rail is kept clean and well cared for. Dust and debris can seriously impair your stairlift from working properly, causing it to croak and whine or even refuse to exercise, which is no fun for anyone. The easiest way to avoid this problem is to regularly use a vacuum cleaner to get into all the little nooks and crannies around the stairlift rail.


Of course if your stairlift is really feeling under the weather you can always give us a call and someone will pop over to see what's the matter. We also advise that your stairlift has an annual check-up just to be on the safe side.


Food for thought?? I'll leave it with you. I'm off for a Friday night stairlift discocoa session! Cheery-bye!
