How Long Does It Take to Install a Stairlift? Your Guide from Leodis Stairlifts

ByTom

Whether you’re looking for a straight stairlift in Leeds, a curved stairlift in Manchester or an outdoor stairlift in Newcastle, one of your questions might be: how long does it actually take to install a stairlift? At Leodis Stairlifts, we’ve supported customers across the North of England for over 30 years and we know how important speed, reliability and minimal disruption are to our customers. Here’s our complete guide, written having had the experience of installing thousands of straight, curved, outdoor and rental stairlifts…

The Stairlift Installation Timeline Explained

Every home is different, every staircase is unique and every customer’s needs vary, however one of the reasons people choose Leodis is because our processes are fast, smooth and efficient. Here’s what to expect:

  • Straight Stairlifts: Often Installed as Quickly as Next Day
    • If your staircase runs in one straight line, your installation time is typically very fast. We stock a wide range of new and reconditioned straight stairlifts, meaning we can often offer next-day installation, especially for urgent enquiries.
    • This is ideal for families that need quick mobility support, for example, after an injury or operation.

  • Curved Stairlifts: Made-to-Measure for a Perfect Fit
    • A curved stairlift takes slightly longer to install, because the track is custom-made to match every bend and turn of your staircase. This ensures smooth travel, maximum safety and a completely tailored fit – something especially important when we install curved stairlifts in Leeds, Manchester or Newcastle, where older properties often have unique stair layouts.
    • During your free home survey, we’ll discuss expected manufacturing and installation time, so you know exactly what to expect.

  • Outdoor Stairlifts: Fast Installation of Stairlifts that are Built to Last
    • If you need access to the outside; perhaps your garden, driveway or porch, our outdoor stairlifts are designed to withstand all weather conditions. These typically install just as quickly as straight stairlifts, depending on location and access points.

  • Stairlift Rental: Quick, Affordable and Flexible
    • If you’re searching for a stairlift rental near you, you’ll be pleased to know that rental stairlifts are usually the fastest of all to install.
    • These are ideal for:
      • Recovering after surgery;
      • Short term mobility needs; 
      • Relatives who are staying with you;
      • Temporary adjustments before moving to a more accessible home.
