Handicare Freecurve Stairlift
Handicare 4000 Stairlift
Custom twin-rail with many options
The Handicare 4000 model, made by Savaria, is known for its exceptional fit for virtually any curves. The double-rail design is custom fabricated using our proprietary PS4D photo-measuring system. The rail fits close to the wall or railing of your staircase to maximize the space on your stairs. Great for spiral staircases, or for out-of-the-way parking of the lift at the top or bottom of your staircase. The 4000 also offers a range of seat styles, along with power features to make the lift even easier to use.
Custom fit – in just a few weeks
A stairlift built for smooth, unobtrusive operationWith our fast fabrication, we can produce your custom curved Handicare 4000 in as little as 2 weeks. There is no compromise on fit with the 4000 due to its twin-rail design that can be bent quite tightly to accommodate sharp turns, 90-degree parking, or narrow staircases. This results in more clearance on the stairs when the stairlift is not in use and a less obtrusive look on the stairs.
Handicare 4000 Stairlift
Standard features and finish
- The standard stairlift rail is painted in light grey with an off-white carriage and vanilla seat fabric
- Control the stairlift with the toggle on the armrest
- The seat, footrest, and arms fold up to keep the lift compact when not in use
- Comes with two infrared remote controls which allow you to summon the chair from the top or bottom of the stairs
- The Handicare 4000 is a rack and pinion drive that operates on battery power with built-in charging stations at the top and bottom of the rail. If there is a power failure, the stairlift will provide several up and down trips
Additional Options
Add one or more power features to your Handicare 4000 for ease of use. Learn more about power features.
Power Footrest
A power folding footrest means you don’t need to bend down to fold or unfold the footrest.
Power Swivel
The power seat swivel turns the seat at the top landing using the toggle switch, rather than the manual seat swivel handle.
Power Hinge
A power folding hinge keeps the bottom landing area free of a tripping hazard if you have a doorway at the bottom of the stairs.
Perch seat
See the Perch seat if you have difficulty to fully sit on the chair due to knee or hip troubles.
5 Point harness
A five-point harness is available for added security while riding the chair.
Parking
Add 90- or 180-degree parking so your chair travels around the stair railing at the top, bottom or both landings. This provides a more spacious and safe area to get on and off the lift.
