High quality stairlifts can transform daily life at home. Acorn Mobility Services Ltd has spent decades perfecting exactly that. Founded in Bradford in 1992, the company began by reconditioning second-hand lifts. It now designs and manufactures its own models in Britain.
Today Acorn is the world’s leading independent stairlift specialist. Its products are sold in around 80 countries. An Acorn stairlift is installed somewhere in the world every eight minutes. The mission stays simple. It helps people with limited mobility regain their independence.
The choice of high quality stairlifts
Acorn’s range covers the two main configurations most homes need. Straight stairlifts suit staircases without bends. They can often be fitted within one to two hours.
Curved stairlifts are custom-built to follow your exact staircase. They handle spiral stairs and intermediate landings with ease. Both types meet the same safety standards. Both share the same trusted core features.
Key features and safety
Every Acorn stairlift runs on battery power. That means it keeps working even during a power cut. Units travel at a gentle 0.15 metres per second for a smooth ride.
Safety sensors detect obstructions and bring the chair to a controlled stop. Each seat has a safety belt and a handy swivel function. This makes getting on and off far easier. Acorn also holds the Arthritis Foundation Ease of Use Certification.
Installation, aftercare and outdoor models
A free, no-obligation home survey starts the process. A trained technician assesses your staircase and advises on the right model. Straight installations take one to two hours. Curved or multi-level work may take four to five.
Every new lift carries a 12-month warranty covering parts and labour. A thorough 25-point inspection follows near the end of the first year. Ongoing maintenance plans help extend each unit’s working life. Many continue reliably for well over a decade.
Acorn also makes weather-resistant outdoor stairlifts. These suit external steps, raised access points and multi-level garden terraces. They use the same drive and safety technology as indoor models. Explore the full range and find the freedom that fits your home.
