Stairlift Prices: How Much Does a Stairlift Cost?
An Introduction to Stairlifts and Stairlift Pricing
There are several important questions to consider when choosing a stairlift for you or a loved one. The right stairlift is the one that lets you live in the home you know, love and enjoy. It removes the difficulties posed by stairs and gives you a safe, reliable alternative to expensive options, such as remodeling your home, installing a home elevator or entering an assisted living facility like nursing homes.
You might be thinking, “Great, but how much is this going to cost?” Stairlift installation costs are an important factor in the decision-making process. While there is a lot of information to consider, this guide from Stannah will help answer some of your most pressing questions on stairlift prices. We’ll start by clarifying the factors that can affect the cost of your stairlift.
How much do stairlifts cost?
Straight stairlifts price range is between $3,300 – $5,500. The price generally depends on a combination of factors, such as the stairlift’s features, user needs and the length of the staircase. A straight stairlift can be installed on any straight staircase, both indoors and outdoors. Curved stairlifts usually start at $9,800 and can go up depending on the complexity of the staircase. The rail of a curved stairlift is made to measure to fit the exact curves and bends of your staircase.

What determines the cost of a stairlift?
The price of a stairlift can depend on several factors, such as:
- Are your stairs straight or curved?
- How wide is your stairwell?
- If there is a low ceiling, how much headroom is there?
- How far will your stairlift travel?
- Are there landings at the top and bottom of your stairs?
The biggest determining factor in pricing a stairlift is whether or not your stairs take a turn. For straight staircases, we use a standardized rail, cut to the appropriate length. Stairs that make a turn require custom curved rails designed to ensure the best fit and appearance for these staircases.
