Testimonials

StairSteady is a great help. As the rail can be set at any height it was fitted in the perfect position for me to use. The benefit of the StairSteady is that I am still able to use the stairs rather than becoming dependant on a stairlift, and losing my mobility. The fitting team was really helpful and pleasant. I have no hesitation in recommending a StairSteady.
Mrs Smith
We both find the StairSteady so easy to use. We are keen to show others our StairSteady. Many thanks for your help.
Mrs Foster
I live in an upstairs flat and I am really pleased with my Stair Steady. I feel much safer on the stairs because it feels so sturdy. The Stair Steady is worth every penny and it is much cheaper than a chair lift. Really the best thing I have purchased in years.
Mrs Tattershall
It makes a huge difference having two arms in front of me. I feel in control and active. I can now come and go out of my flat as I wish!
Mrs Robertson

What weight can it support?

Does it need electricity or batteries?
