Acorn Stairlifts have an impressive array of safety features built in as standard. These include:
The stairlift is fitted as standard with these essential safety systems to eliminate any possibility of an uncontrolled descent of the stairlift.
At the end of either an ascent or descent, the stairlift will come to a 'soft stop' due to the limit sensors. These ensure that the stairlift always stops in the correct position
Acorn Superglide Stairlifts can be
controlled by either the simple mechanical 'paddle' switch
at the end of both seat arms, or by way of the infra-red remote
control handset, two of which are supplied. These are ideal when
there are 2 users in the house and the lift needs to be 'sent' or 'called'
up and down the stairs. The wireless design means that there is no
unsightly wall-mounted wiring for control stations. The paddle switches
override the remote controls.
For extra security and safety, the
Acorn stairlift comes with an inertial reel lap harness as standard, for
no extra cost. Always putting safety first.
The stairlift seat swivels and locks in position, making mounting and dismounting the stairlift easy and safe. The stairlift will not operate unless the seat is in the correct riding position.
There are 5 surfaces / edges that stop the stairlift in event of a collision with any obstruction on the stairway. These are located around the footrest, and on the top and bottom of the carriage.
Mounted on the carriage of the stairlift is a digital display which shows clearly when the lift is in the normal operating position, and also provides invaluable diagnostic information in the unlikely event of a fault with your stairlift.
The fold-away construction makes the Stair lift unobtrusive and allows full access of the stairs
There are a number of accessories available to complement the Acorn Superglide Stairlift. These accessories are designed and manufactured to provide comfortable, practical and cost effective solutions for people with additional mobility and physical flexibility difficulties, or to cater for more complex stair configurations.
With a Sit/Stand Frame, you can choose whether to use the stairs in either the usual seated position or to stand on the footrest. With a special folding steady/security bar for stability, it is ideal for anybody who may have problems bending their knees, or where multiple users with different requirements will be using the stairlift.
The Superglide Perch Stairlift may also be suitable.
The lower section of the rail folds up and out of the way when not in use, allowing greater access at the foot of the stairs. The option of a hinged rail is ideal when there may a doorway near the foot of the stairs. When the stairlift is not is use, the rail is neatly out of the way and causes no obstruction.
The Acorn stairlift comes with an inertial reel lap harness as standard with no extra cost. Always putting safety first.

Do you have problems
bending your knees?
Is your staircase exceptionally narrow (less than 24")?
Then an Acorn Superglide Perch Stairlift could be the answer to helping you get around all the floors in your home.
Occasionally, it is not possible to use the standard Acorn Superglide Stairlift. Perhaps this is because the stairs are exceptionally narrow, or because the users legs will not bend enough to allow them to sit down on the stairlift.
Acorn has especially developed the Perch Stairlift to overcome this problem.
The Perch Model is easily operated by the remote control system, or alternatively with the 'wander lead' control which can be positioned for your maximum comfort and ease of operation. As with all Acorn stairlifts, the Perch Model is available now for rapid installation.
The outdoor stair lift has all of the safety and comfort features included with our indoor stair lift, but is designed and manufactured specifically for outdoor use.
| Maintenance free DC power | |
| Easy to use Paddle control | |
| Digital status display | |
| Smooth start/stop action | |
| Lockable isolation switch | |
| Swivel Seat | |
| Fold-up seat & footrest | |
| Infra-red remote controls | |
| Safety cut-out sensors | |
| Electronic and mechanical braking systems | |
| Whisper-quiet operation | |
| 294 lb weight capacity (350 lb available) | |
| Designed for simple installation |
All metallic components are either made in aluminum, or are oil annealed or zinc plated before powder coating. Plastic components are heat and UV resistant, protecting the stair lift from color fading and ambient heat damage.
The Acorn Superglide Outdoor Stair Lift is an ideal solution for situations involving any staircase that is exposed to the elements, including garden steps, sun decks, porches, front stoops and garage or basement steps. The outdoor stair lift is very popular with those lucky enough to live in beach homes, as it is well protected from the ravages of salt air.
Even in outdoor configuration, the Acorn Superglide Stair Lift has world renowned ride quality and performance, making it whisper quiet, smooth and stable and very easy to use.
Included with the stair lift is a durable plastic cover which will keep off accumulations of leaves and snow.
It would seem that a curved rail stairlift provides an appropriate solution for a staircase that is not a straight run. However, you should consider all options when choosing a stairlift solution for your home.
Curved Stairlifts are much more complex pieces of equipment compared with a straight stairlift. Consequently, they are considerably more expensive. There are other aspects of these lifts that you should consider carefully before making your decision.
Curved Stairlifts have to be custom-built for your individual staircase.
Curved rail stairlifts require a highly detailed, accurate on-site survey prior to order and can take between 1 to 3 months to be built and delivered
If your staircase has a sub-landing (a flat platform) where it turns, you should consider the option of installing two straight stairlifts, as an alternative to one curved unit. This assumes that the user is capable of transferring from one stairlift to the other on the flat landing, of course. We accept that this is not always possible, but are always on hand to offer advice and guidance.
A 'double installation' of two straight stairlifts has the following benefits to you:
| A cost saving of | |
| A stairlift system that is easy to remove or re-locate. | |
| Two stairlifts that each have a significant re-sale value | |
| Delivery within five working days | |
| Installation is easy and cost effective |
Acorn supplies more customers direct, all over the world, than the rest of the entire industry combined!
The Acorn Superglide Stairlift is exceptional value - with more features as standard, without costing you any extra!
| Fits to Stairs not wall - causing minimum disruption, no structural work needed. | |
| Sealed Gearbox - no lubrication needed, no leaks. | |
| Slim Folding - the arms, seat and footrest fold to leave stairway free for other users. | |
| Swivel Seat - firmly locks in three positions for safety and ease of use, the Stairlift does not move until seat is safely in the travelling position. | |
| Safety Belt - giving you confidence and peace of mind. | |
| Soft Start & Stop - no jarring at the top or bottom of your stairs | |
| DC battery powered it is smooth and whisper-quiet in operation - and continues to work, if there is ever a power failure. | |
| Lockable with Key Switch - preventing any unauthorised use | |
| Rack & Pinion drive providing a quiet, smooth ride. | |
| 5 Safety Surfaces halting the Stairlift if it collides with any obstruction. | |
| Overspeed Governor (OSG) as standard equipment - Acorn believes that it is irresponsible to supply a Stairlift without this vital safety equipment. | |
| Digital Status Display. The Stairlift is equipped with smart technology that let's you know Stairlift status at any moment. |
Modern Stairlifts, like the Acorn Superglide Stairlift, are state of the art, in terms of design and manufacture, yet are so simple to install and maintain.
It can be quite baffling when choosing a stairlift, with contradicting claims made about various brands. It is important to make like-for-like comparisons, preferably from the actual manufacturers websites. Think carefully when buying this type of product via the internet. Your first real opportunity to clearly see the features, engineering (and limitations) of your new Stairlift, are when it arrives on your doorstep.
Acorn has a network of authorized dealers thoughout the USA where you can visit and see and try the Acorn Stairlift for yourself
There is an ever growing demand for Stairlifts in America, and there are many out dated products still available and being installed in peoples homes. These 'old style' stairlifts can be troublesome for the user - why? - because they are unreliable. Things have moved on since the days of chain drives and trailing cables.
Don't take any chances - make sure you conduct a direct like-for-like comparison of the features, technology, comfort and safety aspects of the equipment.
