When you invest in a stairlift, whether it’s a brand new model or a reconditioned stairlift, you’re making a decision that enhances your mobility and independence. However, like all mechanical systems, stairlifts require ongoing maintenance to ensure they operate efficiently and safely. Regular servicing is vital for preventing costly repairs and extending the life of your stairlift.
At Droitwich Stairlifts, we understand the importance of keeping your stairlift in top condition. As a family-run business with a reputation for quality, we’re proud to offer servicing and repairs for all makes and models of stairlifts, including Stannah stairlifts, curved stairlifts and used or reconditioned stairlifts in Birmingham, Kidderminster, Dudley, Worcester and beyond.
The importance of regular maintenance for your stairlift
Your stairlift is designed to make your daily life easier, but safety should always be the top priority. Regular maintenance ensures that all the key components, such as the motor, battery, and tracks, are functioning correctly. Over time, wear and tear can affect the performance of these components, potentially leading to breakdowns or, in the worst case, accidents. Regular servicing allows technicians to identify and address any issues before they become serious safety concerns.
Much like a car or any other valuable piece of equipment, your stairlift needs regular attention to ensure it lasts for many years. A well-maintained stairlift will serve you reliably for much longer than one that isn’t properly cared for. For example, if you own a curved stairlift, the intricate mechanisms that allow it to follow the path of your stairs must be regularly lubricated and adjusted. Regular servicing prevents unnecessary stress on these components, which can help to extend the lifespan of your stairlift and reduce the likelihood of costly repairs.
While regular servicing does incur a cost, it’s far more affordable than having to pay for major repairs or replacing a stairlift prematurely. For example, problems such as battery failure, if left unchecked, can lead to the need for a completely new battery or even a full replacement. By keeping up with regular maintenance, you can avoid these more expensive issues and ensure that your stairlift runs smoothly for years to come.
Routine servicing allows our expert technicians to identify minor issues before they develop into major problems. Whether it’s tightening loose screws or adjusting the alignment of the tracks, these small fixes can make a big difference in the overall performance of your stairlift. Preventative care is always better than dealing with emergency repairs, especially if it means you’ll have to wait for a replacement or find yourself in an unsafe situation.
A stairlift should be a comfortable and convenient solution for navigating your home. If the mechanism is sluggish or noisy, it can take away from the experience. Regular maintenance ensures that your stairlift operates quietly and smoothly, providing you with a more comfortable ride. This is particularly important if you rely on your stairlift on a daily basis, whether it’s to get to your bedroom or simply to reach different levels of your home.
