How to measure

Taking Measurement of your Stair before your order is really simple and easy. You just need a measuring metal tape, then take a general overview of your stairway layout and decide which side of the staircase the stairlift will be mounted on, when viewed from the bottom. Be aware that the stairlift rail will overhang the top landing by 8" and meet the floor at the foot of the stairs 14" beyond the nose of the first step.

 

Explanation of Measurements

1 - Overall Length of Staircase
Note: This should be a straight measurement from the nose of the top step to the floor, at the foot of the stairway.

2 - Staircase Width
Note: You many find that your staircase width varies a little, over the length of the stairway. Record the measurement at its narrowest point.

3 - Clearance at Bottom of Staircase
Note: A minimum of 24" (61cms) is required for this measurement.

4 - ‘Rise’ of One Step
Note: Height of one step. This may vary slightly, so measure several steps part way up the stairs and take an average.

5 - ‘Tread’ of One Step
Note: Depth of one step. This may vary slightly, so measure several steps part way up the stairs and take an average.

6 - ‘Diagonal' of One Step
Note: Distance between the 'noses' of two adjacent steps. This may vary slightly, so measure several steps part way up the stairs and take an average.
