Straight Stair Lift

Residential Stair Access Solution

The Hercules Straight Stair Lift is designed for residential use on a single straight flight of stairs, helping improve safety, mobility and independence at home.

Its compact folding design helps keep the staircase clear when the lift is not in use. With a fold-up width of only 275 mm, it is a practical option for homes with narrower stairways or limited space.

The seat is designed for comfort and can be width-adjusted for a better fit. With smooth, quiet operation and a 159 kg capacity, the Straight Stair Lift provides reliable support for safer movement between levels.

The unit is battery operated with built-in charging at the top and bottom of the rail, allowing continued operation for several trips during a power outage. An optional outdoor package is also available for suitable installations.
