Can you buy a stairlift and install it yourself?
While buying a stairlift and attempting self-installation is possible, it’s generally not recommended. Stairlift installation is complex and involves securely attaching the rail and ensuring that electrical connections and safety mechanisms work correctly.
We recommend using Acorn’s expert installers, who can ensure the stairlift is securely fitted to keep you safe. This is especially important for curved stairlifts or unusual stair layouts requiring precise measurements and adjustments. It is also worth noting that most stairlift warranties are only valid if the lift is installed by a certified professional, which means self-installation may void your warranty.
