Nationwide Lifts of Missouri and Kansas helps homeowners across the St. Louis region stay in the houses they love, including Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Chesterfield, Florissant and St. Charles.
St. Louis is known for its sturdy brick houses, many of them two and a half or three stories tall with steep, enclosed stairs. Those staircases are hard on aging knees, but they are usually well suited to a slim stair lift, which mounts to the treads and needs no changes to the walls.
When a wheelchair is involved, or when more than one floor needs to be reached, an elevator is the better long-term answer. A pneumatic or shaftless design can be added to an existing house with little structural work, and a traditional elevator can be planned into a renovation.
Many city homes sit several steps above the sidewalk. A platform lift at the front or rear entrance gives level access without sacrificing the yard to a ramp.
In St. Louis City, Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Chesterfield and St. Charles we fit chair lifts for stairs on the steep staircases of brick homes and install residential elevators in houses with two or three floors. A vertical platform lift solves the steps from the sidewalk, and a dumbwaiter carries groceries from a basement garage.
In most cases, yes. Compact stair lifts are made for narrow, enclosed staircases, and we measure to confirm.
