Handicare 1000 Stairlift in Mississauga, Toronto and the GTA
If you have a straight staircase and want a stairlift that is strong without taking over the stairs, the Handicare 1000 stairlift is a smart choice. Its slim rail keeps the gear rack out of sight, the seat, arms and footrest fold up to leave room for others, and the battery keeps it working when the power goes out. Liberty Care Mobility measures your stairs, installs the lift and services it afterwards.

Handicare 1000 Stairlift FAQ
Will the Handicare 1000 fit my stairs?
It fits most straight staircases between 21° and 56°. A hinged rail is available if a door or hallway sits close to the bottom step. We confirm the fit when we measure your stairs.
Does it work during a power outage?
Yes. It runs on batteries that charge at the top and bottom landings, so it keeps working when the power is out.
How much does the Handicare 1000 cost?
Price depends on the length of your stairs, the seat and the options you choose. Use the builder on this page or call us at 905-608-9225 for a quote.
