The Handicare 1000 XXL is the heavy duty version of the Handicare 1000 straight stairlift, rated for users up to 31.5 stone (200 kg). That is the highest weight limit we offer on a straight staircase.
It keeps the slim aluminium rail of the standard 1000, with the gear rack hidden inside the track, and adds the larger Smart XXL seat with extra space between the arms.
Every price is a starting price that includes installation, VAT and a parts and labour warranty (3 years on new, 2 years on reconditioned). Your exact price depends on your staircase and the options you choose, and we confirm it in writing after a free home survey.
