Residential Stairlifts Baltimore Maryland

1. What’s the price of a stairlift?

A stairlift elevator cost depends on many factors. Considerations such as the layout of your stairs and your current or future mobility needs will be part of a Maryland stairlift evaluation. Part of our service is to offer a no obligation appointment to talk with you about these factors and recommend the best stairlift to suit your needs. When you schedule a free in-home visit, our promised to you is to be thorough, considerate and leave you an itemized quote for what you need. We will not push any specific solution; we will consider the options together with you!  Call us now to schedule your visit and find out the price of the stairlift to fit you and your house.

2. Can I rent a Stannah stairlift? 

Yes. Stannah stairlifts are sold and rented in Maryland by Bedco Mobility, Inc.  If you’re only going to need a stairlift for a short amount of time, a rental could be a good solution to bridge the gap.  Rental stairlifts can also be purchased and kept if circumstances change.  Give us a call to find out about our rental program.

3. How much does installation cost?

It’s free!  Installation is part of a quoted estimate on a stairlift.  Stairlifts are moving pieces of equipment and should be installed by skilled and certified technicians to ensure their operation and safety.  Bedco Mobility is a licensed Elevator Contractor in Maryland with in-house technicians who are also licensed, fully insured, with years of experience.  Nothing is subbed out.   Installations come with full demonstrations and training on your new Maryland stairlift.  Give us a call now to find out what else we offer as part of our service and hear about our state of the art digital scheduling and ticketing service program.

4. Are there narrow stairlifts?

Bedco Mobility has been installing and servicing stairlifts in Maryland for over 60 years.  We’ve seen technology advance and lifts be able to fit on narrower and narrower stairs. There’s almost no stairway that is too narrow for one of our stairlifts. If you’re still not sure, give us a call. A free in-home estimate will allow us to survey the stair clearances and see which narrow stairlift works best for you. Giving you free information and advice with no strings attached is part of our service – take advantage of it!

5. Can Stannah stairlifts go around turns in the stairs?

Yes, no problem!  If you need a continuous ride from floor to floor and have landings, a curved stairlift would be a good solution for you.  These stairlifts ride on rails bent per stairway to perfectly match the bends in the layout so that you can safely get from bottom to top without transferring or trying to do stairs.  These chairlifts also come with a drawing for approval so you can double check the layout before anything is manufactured.  They are measured with a digital photo measuring system, to the millimeter, so they are guaranteed to fit.  Feasibility drawings are free of charge, if you want to see a formal layout of your curved stairlift with your quote, just ask!  Call us today for a free survey.

6. Are Used Stairlifts a viable solution?

Yes, Bedco Mobility has the largest inventory of used stairlifts in Maryland.  If your budget is limited, there are plenty of good lift options that are gently used.  These stairlifts are well kept and rigorously prepped prior to install, get new batteries, and still come with a good warranty.  Amazingly you can also do used curved stairlifts by pairing a used stairlift chairtop with new rails made for your stairs.  Again that’s a great way of gaining independence while taking care of your budget.  Our free in-home estimates will always mention potential used stairlift options during the visit.

7. Everyone says they’re the best – what should I look for in a stairlift?

So true.  The internet is a great tool for research but also leads to information overload and a lot of exaggerated claims.   When considering a stairlift there are two major factors – the equipment & the local company.  Equipment should be made by established manufacturers who offer multiple models and standard safety features.  The local company should have length experience in the area, with proven results.  Start ups or solo operations can be risky.  Be sure that your local provider has multiple technicians dedicated to stairlifts so that your stairlift will be properly maintained in the future.  Customers have a voice online – read the reviews!
