The Acorn Stairlift FAQ of the Week
How Wide Do Staircases Need to Be for a Stairlift?
They don’t call us stair experts for nothing.
From straight and short, to long and winding, Acorn has seen them all. Just like our customers, stairs come in a multitude of different sizes and shapes with different stair arrangements above or below, varied lengths and directions, landings between stairs, etc.
Acorn stairlifts are always customised to fit your home—your home will never be modified to fit our stairlifts.
This is why, at Acorn Stairlifts, we aim to fit even the narrowest of staircases, with our stairlifts fitting 99 percent of staircases.
Our Acorn 130 Straight Stairlift model only needs 26 inches, or about 66 cm, and our Acorn 180 Curved Stairlift model only needs 27.5 inches, or about 70 cm, to ensure that the customer can swivel around comfortably.
After claiming your free, no-obligation stairlift home survey, one of our fully trained surveyors can assess your staircase to ensure that stairlift installation is possible.
All About Acorn’s Innovative FastTrack Installation Method
How is Acorn able to fit our stairlifts to 99 percent of all staircases without modifying your home?
This is all thanks to Acorn’s unique modular rail system known as FastTrack that can be adapted to flawlessly fit and flow with the bends, curves, and lengths of almost any staircase—whether straight, curved, or outdoor.
Our expert installation technicians will select the exact rail sections needed to fit your staircase, assembling and fitting a personalised FastTrack rail to your specific staircase.
Acorn knows that mobility is something that no one should be stuck on the stairs waiting for.
With the FastTrack system, stairlift installation is fast and simple, only taking a few hours, even with a more complicated stair construction.
Most importantly, Acorn stairlifts are installed directly to the stairs, rather than the wall, so you will never have to sacrifice the style or structure of your home with messy modifications such as drilling or plastering.
Why Acorn Always Aims to Be Adaptable
Acorn Stairlifts knows every staircase and home is just as unique as the customer who buys it.
We also know that each individual has unique needs, experiences, and circumstances that have led them to the life-changing decision of installing a stairlift in their home.

Acorn knows that these people are not just numbers. They’re our grandmothers and grandfathers, husbands and wives, mom and dads, sisters and brothers, and children. They are the people we love and care about.
