Restore Stair Access With a Straight Stairlift That’s Built for Your Staircase

Most homeowners looking for a straight stairlift are working on a tight timeline, and the trigger is usually something specific: a surgery, a fall, a mobility change that’s made the stairs a problem. HomeLift installs Bruno and Stannah straight stairlifts with factory-trained technicians who assess the staircase, configure the rail to your exact measurements, and complete the install without handing any part of that off.

  • Configured to Your Staircase, Not a Generic Kit

    The rail isn’t a standard length that gets trimmed on-site. It’s configured to the exact measurements of your staircase before anything ships, based on what our technician captures during the in-home assessment: staircase length, width, top and bottom landing clearance, and any site-specific factors that affect how the unit fits and operates.

  • Post-Install Service From the Same Local Team

    The team that installs your stairlift is the same team you call when it needs service. Our Gold Extended Service Contract covers parts and labor, including three service calls per year and a guaranteed four-business-day response. Silver covers labor only, with the same call structure. Both are available on every straight stairlift installation we complete.

  • Folding seat, armrests, and footrest to keep the staircase clear when not in use
  • Continuous charge rail that keeps the unit ready at any position on the track
  • Wall-mounted and handheld remote controls included
  • Slim rail profile that doesn’t block staircase access for others
  • Retractable seatbelt on every model
  • Gold and Silver Extended Service Contract options available post-install

NAEC-Affiliated Technicians on Every Straight Rail Stairlift Install

Every straight stairlift we install is handled by HomeLift’s own factory-trained technicians, not a subcontracted crew. We’ve been NAEC-affiliated since our founding in 1986 and operate under those standards on every install, regardless of product type or project size. If the staircase has a curve, a landing, or a non-standard angle, we’ll tell you that during the assessment rather than after the equipment has been ordered. Curved configurations are a separate service we handle just as directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

A straight staircase runs in a single direction from bottom to top with no curves, bends, or landings that change the rail direction. If your staircase goes straight up between two floors without turning, a straight rail stairlift will fit it. If there’s a curve or a turn at any point, a curved stairlift is the right solution. We confirm which applies during the in-home assessment.

Both are quality brands we install and service. Bruno is US-manufactured, which affects parts availability and service response times. Stannah’s rail profile is notably slim, which matters in narrower staircases where clearance for other household members is a priority. The in-home assessment identifies which is the better fit for your specific staircase width and configuration.

Straight stairlift cost covers the unit, the rail configured to your staircase length, and installation by HomeLift’s factory-trained technicians. The in-home assessment determines rail length and any site-specific requirements before we quote.

The rail mounts to the stair treads, not the wall, so wall damage isn’t part of the installation. A stairlift for a straight staircase mounts with hardware that leaves small footprints on the treads, typically covered if the unit is ever removed. Our technicians walk through the mounting process during the in-home assessment so there are no surprises on installation day.

Yes. Both Bruno and Stannah straight rail models are designed with a folding seat, armrests, and footrest that keep the staircase clear when the lift isn’t in use. The rail runs along one side of the staircase and leaves the remaining width accessible for other household members.
