Space-Saving Narrow Stairlifts for Compact Staircases
If your staircase is narrow, steep, or unusually shaped, a narrow stairlift from Multicare is the ideal mobility solution. Specially designed to take up minimal space while maintaining maximum safety and comfort, our narrow stairlifts let you move freely in homes where standard lifts won’t fit.
We know that many older properties have narrow staircases that can be challenging to navigate with mobility aids. That’s why we offer slimline stairlift models that tuck neatly along the wall or banister without obstructing access for other household members.
Our team provides a no-obligation home survey to assess your stairs’ dimensions and recommend the best narrow stairlift option.
Efficient Narrow Stairlift Solutions
Our narrow stairlifts feature slim rails and compact seating that balance minimal footprint with full functionality. Despite their size, they come packed with safety features including seat belts, obstacle sensors, and smooth starting and stopping controls.
Comfort isn’t sacrificed either; the seats come with soft padding, armrests, and foldable components to maximise space when the lift is not in use. Controls are simple and intuitive, perfect for independent use.

Different designs to suit your needs
Most modern properties have staircases that are wide enough to accommodate a normal stairlift. However, some older houses have very narrow stairs, which aren’t always suitable for certain stairlifts. For these properties, made-to-measure stairlifts can be installed to allow comfortable mobility, as well as ensuring others can use the stairs without obstruction. Particularly useful if you live with other people who require the use of the stairs. Made-to-measure stairlifts use a customised track, designed to work around your staircase, while ensuring your comfort.
There are several different compact designs suitable for narrow stairs. With folding armrests, seats, and foot plates. There are also perch seat stairlifts and downward-facing stairlifts, all designed to make getting up and down a narrow staircase simple and fuss-free.
