Stannah Model 420 for Straight Stairs
Stannah's Model 420 straight stairlift has a compact carriage and rail, along with folding arms, seat and footrest to make it especially suitable for narrow stairs. A broad range of attractive colors and upholstery materials are available.
Stannah 420 Stairlift Features
- Batteries that are always on charge. Hidden on the back of the rail is a narrow copper strip that constantly trickle-charges the batteries, virtually eliminating the biggest cause of service calls - flat batteries. More basic stairlifts often omit this feature. In the event of an outage the stairlift will typically give you 15-20 round trips on battery power alone.
- Easy-folding footrest. One of the armrests of the Stannah 420 is connected to the footrest, so you don't need to bend down to fold it up. This is especially important upstairs - the alternative is a stairlift user bending down right at the top of the stairs!
- Swivel seat. At the top of the stairs the 420 can be swiveled to face onto the top landing, so that the back of the chairs blocks the stairs behind the user. This swivel uses really smooth roller-bearings to make the swivel easy to do, unlike more basic stairlifts which swivel stiffly on washers. (This point is often overlooked. It's the details that make all the difference.)
- Optional powered swivel seat. With a manually-swiveled seat (on any stairlift, not just ours) the user has to stand close to the top of the stairs to swivel the chair. Our popular powered swivel seat allow the user to swivel the chair by simply pushing the button on a remote - safer!
- Optional automatic folding track. When there's a door or passageway at the bottom of the stairs the rail could present a tripping-hazard. In these cases we specify a fold-up track that lifts automatically as the chair rides up the stairs, and unfolds as the chair descends. This is much easier to use than a manually-lifted track, and avoids the risk of leaving the track down in an unsafe position.
- The best testing process in the industry. All Stannah stairlifts are tested at full load for the equivalent of 10 years of use, and the motor/gearbox is tested for the equivalent of 20 years. This is a robust stairlift designed to serve you well!
