Platinum Horizon Straight Stairlift

Our Take

The Platinum Horizon Straight Stairlift comes in two versions, Standard and Plus, so you can match it to your budget and needs. It carries up to 127kg (20 stone). Below, we set out the main benefits of the Platinum Horizon Straight Stairlift, along with a point to weigh up before you buy.

Benefits

Ease of Installation

The Horizon fixes to your straight staircase, not the wall. As a result, most homes need no building work, and fitting is quick.

Compact Design

The seat, arms and footrest all fold away when the lift is parked. Therefore other people can still use the stairs with ease.

Smooth and Quiet Operation

The Horizon runs quietly and glides smoothly along the rail. Consequently the ride feels gentle, with no sudden jolts.

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

You can choose between the Standard and Plus models to suit your needs. For example, the Plus adds extra comfort and convenience features over the Standard.

Considerations

Check the lift suits the user, taking into account weight capacity and ease of use. Therefore a home assessment is worth booking before you decide.

Other Models to Consider

For a straight staircase like the Platinum Horizon Straight fits, a few other lifts are worth comparing. The DeVi Up Straight has a wider 370mm folded footprint and the Stannah Starla Straight is a close match on size and capacity, while the TK Home Solutions Levant Comfort Straight has a wider 365mm folded footprint.
