Heavy Duty Stair Lifts

Most stair lifts are designed to support around 300 pounds. If you need a stair lift that can support more than this then you will need a Heavy Duty Stair Lift. A heavy duty stair lift will be specially reinforced to support extra weight and strain. Many times they also have wider seats that are specially padded.

There are not too many models available that will support more that 350 pounds. AmeriGlide, a well known and reliable manufacturer of stair lifts, makes two models that can support over 350 pounds. The AmeriGlide Ultra Heavy Duty can span distances of up to 32 feet and support 375 pounds. Its armrests are farther for added comfort.

The AmeriGlide Heavy Duty Stair Lift is considered by many to be the Mack Truck of stair lifts. It can support up to 500 pounds and uses a ½ horsepower motor. It is built to last and has a wider seat and extra heavy duty armrests. It can span distances of up to 20 feet.

These two models are perhaps the best choice if you need a heavy duty stair lift. They are very durable and are designed to safely transport you time and time again.
