Our Take


>>>>>The most recent addition to the Handicare range, the Handicare 4000 is a versatile stairlift system with one of the tightest track bends available on the market. This twin rail curved stairlift comes with several benefits and considerations to keep in mind:

Benefits

Modular Design

The Handicare 4000 Stairlift is known for its modular design, which allows for flexibility in customization to fit various stair configurations and user needs.

Slim Profile

The Handicare 4000 is designed with a relatively slim profile, helping to save space on the staircase and maintaining a less obtrusive presence.

Smooth and Quiet Operation

Users often report a smooth and comfortable ride with the Handicare 4000, ensuring a pleasant experience while moving up and down stairs.

Safety Features

The Handicare 4000 is equipped with safety features such as seatbelts, sensors, and a swivel seat, ensuring a secure and safe user experience.

Customization

The Handicare 4000 Stairlift navigates curved staircases and offers extensive customization to fit complex layouts and user needs.

Considerations

Curved stairlift installations, including the Handicare 4000, can be more complex and time-consuming compared to straight stairlift installations. This might lead to longer installation times and potential disruption during the process.

Curved stairlifts tend to be more expensive than straight stairlifts due to their customization requirements and installation complexity. The Handicare 4000 might have a higher cost associated with its specialized design.

The Handicare 4000 requires space at the top and bottom landings, impacting the available area there. It may not fit extremely narrow or unusually shaped curved staircases despite its customization options.

The complex design of curved Handicare stairlifts, with more moving parts, often requires more frequent maintenance than straight models.
