A nationwide home lift company offers a range of unique domestic lifts which have been designed specifically for residential use and provide an alternative solution to the more mundane stairlift.
Stiltz Lifts manufacture, design and install the Stiltz Home Lift – a one-of-a-kind domestic lift which can be installed almost anywhere in the home thanks to its innovative design and hi-tech features. It offers healthcare professionals who are looking for an alternative to a stairlift, a perfect solution.
With a small footprint of less than one square metre, the stylish Stiltz Duo Lift is compact but spacious, and unlike a stairlift, can comfortably carry two passengers up to one floor in less than 30 seconds. The range also includes the wheelchair-friendly Stiltz Trio Lift. All are available in the Classic, the Thru-Car and the contemporary, clear-sided Vista models.
By installing a Stiltz Home Lift, it gives the user the freedom and independence to move around their entire home without the need for assistance. This is unlike a stairlift, where the user may require help getting on and off the device.
Stiltz domestic lifts include a number of unique features which set them apart from other home lift manufacturers and make them ideal for domestic applications especially as no pit or lift shaft are required. It has its own quiet self-contained drive system which means no noisy hydraulic equipment is needed.
The Stiltz Home Lift simply plugs straight into a standard domestic 13 amp power socket, just like any other household appliance. It travels between floors on self-supporting stilts using discreet wire rope hoists that guide the lift safely and quietly.
Stiltz Lifts deliver their products in modular sections so fast installation is possible with a typical retrofit application being installed in just one day. The lifts are fully compliant with the European Machinery Directive 2006 / 42 / EC.
Typically, clients decide to have the lift fitted in a hallway or living room with it travelling upstairs to a main bedroom or landing area. They can also choose to display their lift prominently (indeed some customers have planned entire room designs around their lift), or conceal it within a cupboard so it blends more readily with their décor.
The Stiltz Lift does not spoil the aesthetics of the home or take up a valuable stair space like a stairlift. It is also surprisingly affordable with Disabled Facilities Grant also available.
The home lift is loaded with safety features as standard including a battery back-up to lower the lift in the event of a power cut (optional UPS is also available), a full height light curtain which stops the lift car when breached, top and bottom obstruction sensors and a key lock to stop unauthorised use. Standard features also include two remote controls to call the lift from either floor, internal LED downlights and half-height door.
Optional extras include a fold down seat, interior grab rail, full height door and interior telephone. Clients can customise their lift by choosing their own bespoke lift colour, rails and interior finish to ensure it compliments their home’s interior.
