Platinum Curve Stairlift
Our Take
The Platinum Curve Stairlift is an affordable, UK-built twin-rail lift for curved staircases. It carries up to 120kg (19 stone). Below, we set out the main benefits of the Platinum Curve Stairlift, along with a point to weigh up before you buy.
Benefits
Ease of Installation
The Curve runs on a made-to-measure rail fixed to your stairs, not the wall. As a result, most homes need no building work before fitting.
Compact Design
The seat, arms and footrest fold away neatly when the lift is parked. Therefore other people can still use the stairs with ease.
Smooth and Quiet Operation
The Curve runs quietly and glides smoothly around each bend. Consequently the ride stays gentle from the bottom step to the top.
Safety Features
The chair includes a seatbelt and sensors that stop the lift if it meets an obstruction. In addition, the seat swivels and locks at the top, so you can step off safely.
Customizable Options
The lift is tailored to your home and your needs. For example, the rail is shaped to your exact stairs, and you can choose seat and finish options.
Considerations
As a twin-rail system, the Curve can take up a little more room than a single-rail lift. It is also worth checking it suits the user during a home assessment.
Other Models to Consider
For a curved staircase like the Platinum Curve suits, a few other made-to-measure lifts are worth comparing. The Platinum Ultimate Curved is a close match on size and capacity and the Acorn 180 Curved folds slimmer at 335mm for tighter stairs, while the Acorn 80 Curved folds slimmer at 320mm for tighter stairs. A home survey will confirm the best fit.
