Specifications - Stair Lifts - Acorn

ACORN Stairlifts have an impressive array of safety features built in as standard. These include:

Electronic and mechanical braking systems

The stairlift is fitted as standard with these essential safety systems to eliminate any possibility of an uncontrolled descent of the stairlift.		    
     

Limit sensors

At the end of either an ascent or descent the stairlift will come to a 'soft stop' due to the limit sensors, these ensure that the stairlift always stops in the correct position

    
     

Choice of Control

ACORN Stairlifts are controlled by, either the mechanical 'joystick' fitted to the seat arm, or by way of the infra red remote control handset, two of which are supplied. The mechanical controls over-ride the remote controls. The remote controls are ideal when there are 2 users in the house so that the lift can be 'sent' or 'called' up - and downstairs. The wireless design means that there is no unsightly wall mounted wiring or control stations.		   ACORN Stairlifts: Infa-Red Remote Control
     

Swivel seat with locking catch

The stairlift seat swivels, and locks in postion, making mounting and dismounting from the stairlift easy and safe. The stairlift will not operate unless the seat is in the correct riding position.		   ACORN Stairlifts: Seat Swivel
     

Pressure sensitive safety surfaces

There are 5 surfaces / edges that stop the stairlift in event of a collision with any obstruction on the stairway. These are located around the footrest, and on the top and bottom of the carriage.		   ACORN Stairlifts: Safety Sensors
     

Digital status display

Mounted on the carriage of the stairlift is a digital display, which shows clearly when the lift is in the normal operating position, and also provide invaluable diagnostic information in the unlikely event of a fault with your stairlift.		   ACORN Stairlifts: Digital Display
