We have listed all the questions about stairlifts that people have asked us over the years here. If your question is not among these, please contact us: we are happy to help!
Is a second-hand stairlift actually safe?
We only buy stairlifts from the leading brands: ThyssenKrupp, UP Stairlift and Acorn. These premium brands make durable stairlifts that will last for years. The stairlifts may not be any older than 8 years and must be in good technical condition. All of the stairlifts we buy are refurbished in our workshop. They are thoroughly inspected and parts are replaced when necessary. The stairlifts are then tested with and without a load. So, before these stairlifts are transported, we can safely say they function properly and meet all of the safety requirements!
Where does my used stairlift come from?
Summit collaborates closely with municipalities, housing corporations and other agencies. We also buy stairlifts from private individuals. These stairlifts must fulfill a number of requirements: we only purchase models from the three leading brands stated earlier, we do not purchase stairlifts older than 8 years and every stairlift must be in good condition.
