Benefits of Manually Operated Stair Climbers

July 26th, 2012

Everyone should be able to access any part of a building, however when staircases come into the equation this can effectively build up an unsurpassable brick wall for those with disabilities. This should never be the case, and luckily enough, with stair climbers it never has to be. Here at K5, we can supply your premises with manually operated stair climbers which make it simple for anyone affected with a disability to access higher floors – providing them with the freedom that they so sorely deserve.

But what are the benefits of these manually operated stair climbers and why do they present the solution to any access-problem as opposed to many other choices out there? Some of the answers lie below, so read on to find out everything you need before making the smart, safe purchase.

Versatility

Firstly, it is worth noting that each staircase will be different, with some being extremely narrow while others in predominately older buildings could be spiral staircases. Many other disability aids may not be able to deal with these types of staircases, once again blocking off higher floors to those with a disability – however the versatility of a stair climber which is coupled with a compact design means that they can easily manoeuvre in narrow spaces or up and around a spiral staircase.

Can be Used Anywhere

Leading on from the versatility of our manual stair climbers, the fact that they are manually operated by a single operator means that they can be used anywhere and in any condition, with working parts getting wet and being ruined not being a consideration.

Comfortable

The comfort of the passenger is always going to be at the top of anybody’s list, and while they are safely being transported up any set of stairs, you can be assured that with adjustable arm and head rests, they will be kept safe and comfortable all the way up. The benefits run on and on, so why not find out for yourself by searching through our range or by contacting us today?
