Handicare Freecurve Stairlift: Features and Prices
A Slim Single-Rail Curved Stairlift
The Handicare Freecurve follows your staircase on a slim, discreet single tubular rail less than 8 cm across. Each rail is made to measure for your staircase.
Options include a two-way powered swivel that turns the seat during travel, a powered footrest with an LED light, and an active seat that helps you sit down and stand up.
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.

Model-specific owner reviews of the Freecurve are scarce. Handicare as a brand scores 4.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot and 4.9 out of 5 on Feefo for Handicare working with Age Co, with frequent praise for friendly engineers and tidy installation. One recent UK owner said their Freecurve had worked well since fitting; one US owner reported a motor fault after six years. Complaints at brand level are mostly about repair response times.
