Choosing a Stair Lift

For clear guidelines on stair lift selection please read the three-part analysis on “How to Select a Stair Lift”. Visit the “Straight or Curved Stair Lift?” page for information about how to choose between these two options, and for other tips for choosing a stair lift. Stair Lifts Atlanta, LLC provides stair lifts for Atlanta and North Georgia homes and offices.

How Do Stair Lifts Work?
Stair lifts travel on tracks entirely supported on the treads of the stair. Powered from rechargeable batteries and direct current, stair lifts (also known as chair lifts) are able to continue functioning during a power outage. When not in use, the chair lift folds up to a narrow profile, opening up the stairway. Visit the stair lifts page for more information.

Mobility Lifts: From Stair Lifts to Home Elevators

Mobility lifts provide safe, reliable access between different levels of a home or building for individuals who have difficulty using stairs. The term mobility lift encompasses several categories of accessibility equipment, each designed for different architectural conditions, mobility needs, and user preferences. The most common residential mobility lifts include straight stair lifts, curved stair lifts, outdoor stair lifts, platform lifts, and home elevators.

A traditional stair lift transports a seated rider along a rail mounted to the stair treads. When a wheelchair user needs to remain in their wheelchair, an inclined platform lift (IPL) travels along the staircase while carrying both the wheelchair and occupant. Vertical platform lifts (VPLs) move users vertically between levels, functioning similarly to a small open elevator. For homes requiring access between multiple floors without using the stairs at all, a home elevator provides the highest level of accessibility and convenience.

Today’s mobility lifts are available in a wide range of configurations from respected manufacturers including Bruno, Harmar, and Savaria, with each offering models designed for straight, curved, indoor, outdoor, residential, and light commercial applications. Whether you’re aging in place, recovering from surgery, living with a disability, or planning for future accessibility, understanding the different types of mobility lifts can help you select the safest and most appropriate solution for your home.

Straight Stair Lifts

A straight stair lift is designed for staircases that travel in a single, uninterrupted line from the bottom landing to the top without turns, intermediate landings, or curves. These are the most common and most economical type of residential mobility lift. A comfortable seat travels along an aluminum or steel rail that is securely mounted to the stair treads—not the wall—making installation relatively quick while minimizing modifications to the home.

Leading manufacturers include Bruno, Harmar, and Savaria, each offering models with battery-powered operation, folding seats and footrests, swivel seats for safe entry and exit, wireless call/send controls, and obstruction sensors. Because the batteries recharge while parked on the rail, most straight stair lifts continue to operate during a household power outage.

Popular models include the Bruno Elan, an excellent compact option with a 300-pound capacity for most homeowners, and the premium Bruno Elite Straight, offering a 400-pound capacity, larger seat, adjustable armrests, and optional power-operated features. Harmar’s Pinnacle series—including the SL300, SL600, and heavy-duty SL600HD—provides capacities ranging from 300 to 600 pounds with an exceptionally narrow rail profile. The Savaria K2 offers a compact rack-and-pinion design with a 350-pound capacity and optional charging anywhere along the rail.

Straight stair lifts provide the ideal accessibility solution for most homes with traditional straight staircases.

Curved Stair Lifts

A curved stair lift is designed for staircases that include turns, intermediate landings, spirals, multiple angles, or other architectural features that prevent the use of a straight rail. Unlike straight stair lifts, every curved stair lift is custom manufactured after precise measurements of the staircase are taken, allowing the rail to follow the exact path of the stairs for smooth, uninterrupted travel.

Major manufacturers include Bruno, Harmar, and Savaria, all of which produce custom curved systems with battery-powered operation, wireless controls, folding seats, swivel seats, and advanced safety sensors. Although the rails are custom fabricated, installation generally requires little or no structural modification because the rails attach directly to the stair treads.

Popular models include the Bruno Elite Curved (CRE), featuring a custom-built steel rail, premium seating, smooth start-and-stop operation, and a 400-pound weight capacity. Harmar’s Helix utilizes True-Curve rail technology and a double-tube rail system for exceptionally smooth operation around bends while supporting up to 350 pounds. The Savaria Stairfriend employs a twin-rail design custom manufactured for complex stair configurations and offers dependable performance for many residential applications.

Curved stair lifts are the preferred solution whenever a staircase changes direction and a standard straight stair lift cannot be installed safely.

Outdoor Stair Lifts

An outdoor stair lift is specifically engineered for exterior stairways where users need safe access to porches, decks, garages, patios, lake homes, gardens, or other outdoor living areas. While these lifts operate much like indoor straight stair lifts, they are constructed using weather-resistant materials designed to withstand rain, humidity, temperature changes, and prolonged exposure to sunlight.

Among the leading manufacturers, Bruno offers one of the industry’s best-known outdoor stair lifts with its Bruno Elite Outdoor model. Built with marine-grade materials, weather-resistant electronics, UV-resistant finishes, and a durable protective cover, it is designed for reliable year-round operation. Like indoor models, it features battery-powered operation, swivel seating, folding components, wireless controls, and multiple safety sensors while supporting users up to 400 pounds.

Outdoor stair lifts are generally intended for straight exterior staircases. Homes with curved exterior stairs may require a custom-engineered solution, although these installations are less common and depend on site conditions.

For homeowners who enjoy spending time outdoors but find exterior steps difficult or unsafe, an outdoor stair lift provides dependable access while allowing continued enjoyment of the entire property throughout the year.

Vertical Platform Lifts in Metro Atlanta Homes and Businesses

A platform lift transports a person while they remain seated in a wheelchair, scooter, or power chair. Unlike a traditional stair lift, which carries a seated passenger, platform lifts eliminate the need to transfer out of a mobility device. This category includes both Vertical Platform Lifts (VPLs) and Inclined Platform Lifts (IPLs).

A Vertical Platform Lift travels straight up and down between different elevations, functioning much like a compact open elevator. These lifts are commonly installed at porches, garages, decks, churches, schools, and commercial entrances. An Inclined Platform Lift follows the slope of a staircase on a custom rail while transporting both the wheelchair and user, making it an excellent solution where elevators or ramps are impractical.

Leading manufacturers include Bruno, Harmar, Savaria, and Garaventa, offering residential and commercial platform lift systems with a variety of lifting heights, platform sizes, and safety features. Most include non-slip platforms, folding ramps, emergency stop controls, obstruction sensors, battery backup or emergency lowering systems, and key-operated controls for authorized use.

Platform lifts are an excellent accessibility solution for wheelchair users who need safe, independent travel without leaving their mobility device.

Home Elevators

Home elevator systems accommodate wheelchairs and provide smooth, quiet travel between floors while blending seamlessly with the home’s architecture.

A home elevator is the most comprehensive residential mobility lift, providing convenient access between two or more floors while transporting people, wheelchairs, walkers, groceries, luggage, and other household items. Unlike stair lifts or platform lifts, home elevators travel vertically within an enclosed hoistway or specially designed shaft and offer the greatest flexibility for long-term accessibility and aging in place.

Home elevators are manufactured by respected companies including Savaria, Pneumatic Vacuum Elevators (PVE), and Cambridge Elevating. Available systems include traditional cable-driven elevators, hydraulic and winding drum models, machine-room-less designs, through-floor elevators, and innovative pneumatic vacuum elevators featuring transparent cylindrical construction.

Stair Lifts Atlanta offers the assistance you need to make an informed decision about a residential elevator. There are three basic types of home elevators, a two stop elevator, a two-four stop elevator enclosed in a shaft, and a multi-stop elevator that does not require a machine room. We provide installation and inspection by individuals who are certified by the State of Georgia.

Depending on the manufacturer and model, homeowners may choose from a variety of cab sizes, door configurations, finishes, lighting packages, controls, and accessibility options. Many systems accommodate wheelchairs and provide smooth, quiet travel between floors while blending seamlessly with the home’s architecture.

For homeowners planning to remain in their homes for many years—or those requiring full wheelchair accessibility—a residential elevator often represents the most versatile and future-ready mobility solution available.
