We recently finished this stairlift and it is quite amazing. The install took a little more than a day but considering that this lift was almost 72 feet long, we were quite pleased. The customer built this house years ago and is now faced the prospect of a difficult stair case to climb. Not wanting to move, they called us and we came up with a great solution for them. This was a definitely a challenge as the lift needed to turn 5 times before reaching the top of the stair case. With the outdoor curved lifts, they come with a zinc coated (not washed) rail. This ensures a long lifetime of use. Please take a look at the pictures to see how it came out! You can click on them to see them in a larger size.
Those wires aren't ours, by the way.
When you consider the complicated nature of this staircase, the stair lift really couldn't have come out better. This picture really shows the versatility of our outdoor curved stairlift: it can be mounted on any type of surface. On these stairs we start with redwood steps, transition to pressure treated wood and finally the pebble-mix concrete treads.
Now for a larger photo. Take a look at the rail: it's perfect.
You can see there are even more stairs to go up on but the homeowner decided to wait to put a stair lift on those steps. We definitely could have continued the rail but they wanted to keep using the stairs.
We'll come back and put another one on there if they want us to!
