Curved Stair Lift

The Hercules Curved Stair Lift is designed for residential indoor use on staircases with curves, landings, changes in direction, or where out-of-the-way parking is required.

Each system is custom built to suit the exact layout of the home. The double rail is carefully formed based on detailed site measurements, allowing the lift to follow the staircase closely and provide a smooth, practical access solution.

The Curved Stair Lift is designed for quiet, smooth-riding operation and offers a 136 kg capacity, with an optional upgrade up to 160 kg. Installation is typically completed quickly and usually requires only one visit, helping improve mobility and safety in the home with minimal disruption.

The unit is battery operated, allowing emergency operation during a power outage for several trips up and down the stairs. Customers can also choose from two seat styles to suit comfort, space and access requirements.
