Handicare Freecurve Curved Stairlift
The Handicare Freecurve is an innovative, custom-engineered curved stairlift featuring a unique single-rail design that delivers a smooth, stable ride on even the most complex staircases. Specifically engineered to overcome tight architectural layouts, the Freecurve can navigate narrow or steep runs, spiral stairs, and multiple intermediate landings effortlessly. Its elegant single-track tubular rail fits exceptionally tight to the stairs, utilizing fewer floor stanchions than standard double-rail systems to maximize open floor space at the bottom landing. Every rail is custom-crafted to the precise dimensions of your staircase using advanced 3D photographic surveying software, guaranteeing an exact fit. When idle, the seat, armrests, and footrest fold up compactly to keep the staircase clear and safe for other family members on foot.
