A Concorde Liberty Stair Lift Liberates your Home

Posted on July 8th, 2008 in Brands by StairLift

Concorde has been providing access between floors in the buildings of North America for more than 30 years. During that period, Concorde has brought its lift technology close to perfection and each one of the elevators and lifts that leave its assembly line is marked with its stamp of safety and durability.

The Concorde Liberty stair lift has made it much easier for people with disabilities and mobility problems to move up and down the stairs. It has made life easier for them and made them feel more independent. With its 300 pound load capacity, it can carry a person up and down steep stairs even with an incline of 25 up to 50 degrees for a maximum distance of 32 feet at a comfortable speed of 20 feet per minute. It can also help carry other stuff such as laundry, luggage and groceries so you don’t have to struggle with those loads up the stairs. Behind all the hauling power of a Concorde Liberty stair lift is a rack and pinion drive system run by a ½ horse power battery-powered 24 VDC motor. Its twin maintenance-free 12-volt batteries are charged on standard household AC 110-volt current through static charging stations at the top and lower ends of the tracks.

The Concorde Liberty stair lift typically has seat and padded armrest; adjustable width between armrest from 18 to 21 inches wide; adjustable seat height; and, a seat that swivels and locks at 45 and 90 degrees position in both directions which makes it very easy and safe to get on and off the lift even on top of the stairs. It also features seat swivel switch, seatbelt and ABS plastic covers. For added safety, the Concorde Liberty stair lift has obstacle sensors under its foldable footrest and on the carriage that can stop the stair lift if obstructions along the path are detected. It has an electronic controller with “soft start and stop” technology, continuous pressure buttons, wireless infrared call-send controls at the top and bottom landing and a fused control circuitry.

Stair lifts are much better now than ever before. In the making of each Concorde Liberty stair lift, a lot of thought have been put on the safety of the elderly and the handicapped. It cannot be started unless the seat has been locked into place or if there is something wrong with the footrest or armrest and they stop automatically upon reaching the top or bottom of the staircase.
