Stairlifts, Platform Lifts & Home Elevators
Stairs don’t have to mean giving up your home. Whether you’re dealing with a straight staircase, a split-level entry, a raised porch, or a multi-story home, there is a lift solution that restores full access to every level of your house — without moving.
Accessible Solutions installs the full range of residential lift systems throughout Delaware and Southern New Jersey. From a simple straight stairlift to a custom curved rail, a vertical wheelchair platform lift, or an overhead ceiling transfer system, we assess your home and recommend the right solution for your mobility needs and budget.
Types of Lifts We Install
Straight Stairlifts
The most common and affordable lift solution. A motorized chair rides a rail mounted to your stair treads — not the wall — carrying you smoothly between floors. Modern straight stairlifts feature swivel seats for safe dismounting at the top, folding footrests and armrests to minimize stairway obstruction, battery power with continuous charging, and multiple safety sensors. Installation takes 2-3 hours with no structural modifications to your home.
Curved Stairlifts
For staircases with turns, landings, or L-shaped and U-shaped configurations. Each curved stairlift rail is custom-manufactured using precise measurements of your exact stairway. The result is a smooth, continuous ride around every curve. Lead time for the custom rail is typically 2-4 weeks, followed by a half-day installation.
Vertical Platform Lifts
The solution for wheelchair users who need to access a porch, deck, split-level entry, or garage without transferring out of their chair. Platform lifts raise the user and their wheelchair straight up — typically 1 to 14 feet — on an enclosed or semi-enclosed platform. These are essentially small residential elevators that require minimal space and can be installed indoors or outdoors.
Overhead Ceiling Lifts
Track-mounted lift systems installed on the ceiling that allow a caregiver to transfer a client between bed, wheelchair, commode, and bathtub using a sling and motorized lift unit. Ceiling lifts dramatically reduce caregiver injury from manual lifting and make transfers safer and more dignified for the client. Available in fixed-track and portable gantry configurations.
Outdoor Stairlifts
Purpose-built for exterior stairs and exposed to weather. Outdoor stairlift units feature weather-resistant components, marine-grade finishes, and automatic covers that deploy when the unit is parked. We install outdoor stairlifts on front porch steps, back deck stairs, basement walkout entries, and any exterior stairway.
Ways to Pay
Most families pay directly for lift installations — we provide transparent pricing and financing options to fit your budget.
If you have Medicaid or VA coverage, we accept those too:
- Delaware DSHP+ and New Jersey MLTSS both cover lift installations as home accessibility modifications
- VA grants (HISA, SHA, SAH) cover lift projects for eligible veterans
- We handle all paperwork and billing if benefits apply
Why Choose Accessible Solutions for Lifts
We don’t just sell stairlifts — we assess your entire home and recommend the lift solution that actually solves your accessibility problem. Sometimes that’s a stairlift. Sometimes a platform lift makes more sense. Sometimes the answer is a first-floor renovation instead of a lift. We have no inventory to push and no brand exclusivity — we recommend what’s right for your situation and install it professionally.
Lifts & Elevators FAQ
What types of lifts and elevators does Accessible Solutions install?
Accessible Solutions installs stairlifts, vertical platform lifts, ceiling lifts, and residential elevators throughout Delaware and South Jersey. Stairlifts from Bruno, AmeriGlide, and Harmar come in straight and curved configurations. Vertical platform lifts serve wheelchair users at porches and split-level entries. Ceiling lifts from Molift, Handicare, and Arjo handle bed-to-wheelchair transfers. We are one of the only certified Molift installers in the Delaware and New Jersey region.
How much does a stairlift cost in Delaware or New Jersey?
Straight stairlifts cost $3,000 to $5,000 installed, including the unit, rail, and labor. Curved stairlifts run $8,000 to $15,000 because each rail is custom-manufactured to match your exact stairway. Vertical platform lifts range from $4,000 to $9,000 depending on lift height. Ceiling lift systems cost $3,500 to $12,000 depending on track length and configuration. Most families pay directly or use financing. Medicaid and VA benefits may also apply.
Do you accept Medicaid for stairlift or platform lift installation?
Yes, we accept both Delaware DSHP+ and New Jersey MLTSS for lift installations. If you have Medicaid coverage, it may cover part or all of the project depending on the type of lift. Accessible Solutions handles all pre-authorization, documentation, and direct billing. Most of our clients pay directly or use financing, but Medicaid is a welcome option for those who have coverage.
Can veterans use VA benefits for a stairlift or home elevator?
Yes, we accept VA benefits for lift installations. The HISA, SHA, and SAH grants can cover projects ranging from straight stairlifts to residential elevators for eligible veterans. Accessible Solutions coordinates directly with VA case managers in Delaware and South Jersey to help veterans use the benefits they have earned.
How long does stairlift installation take?
Straight stairlifts install in three to five hours with no structural modifications to your home. The rail mounts to stair treads and the unit runs on battery power, so no special electrical work is needed. Curved stairlifts require two to four weeks of lead time for custom rail manufacturing, followed by a one to two day installation. Vertical platform lifts take one to two days including electrical work. Ceiling lifts from Molift or Handicare typically require one to two days for track mounting and calibration.
What home types are compatible with stairlifts and platform lifts?
Lifts work in virtually any home style found in Delaware and South Jersey. Straight stairlifts fit two-story colonials and cape cods with standard staircases as narrow as 28 inches. Curved stairlifts handle L-shaped and U-shaped stairways in split-level homes and townhouses. Vertical platform lifts serve homes with elevated porches, split-level entries, and raised garages. During your free assessment, we measure your space and recommend the right lift type for your specific home layout.
What stairlift and ceiling lift brands does Accessible Solutions carry?
We install stairlifts from Bruno, AmeriGlide, and Harmar, the three leading residential stairlift manufacturers. For ceiling lifts, we carry Molift, Handicare, and Arjo systems. Accessible Solutions is one of the only certified Molift installers in the Delaware and New Jersey region, which matters because Molift's ceiling-mounted transfer systems require factory-certified installation for warranty coverage and safe operation. We are not locked into a single brand and recommend based on your needs.
Can I rent a stairlift instead of buying one?
Yes, Accessible Solutions offers stairlift rentals for clients with temporary needs such as post-surgery recovery or short-term caregiving situations. Rental terms are flexible and include professional installation and removal. This is a key advantage over most local competitors who sell stairlifts only. If your needs become permanent, rental payments can be applied toward a purchase. Contact us for current rental pricing on straight stairlifts in Delaware and South Jersey.
What is a ceiling lift and how does it work?
A ceiling lift is a track-mounted motorized system installed on your ceiling that uses a sling to transfer a person between bed, wheelchair, commode, and bathtub. It eliminates manual lifting by caregivers, which is the leading cause of caregiver back injury. Ceiling lifts from Molift, Handicare, and Arjo cost $3,500 to $12,000 depending on track length and room configuration. Installation takes one to two days. Accessible Solutions is a certified installer for these systems in Delaware and South Jersey.
What makes Accessible Solutions different from other lift installers?
Most local lift companies carry only one brand, do not offer rentals, and cannot install curved rail systems or ceiling lifts. Accessible Solutions installs stairlifts from Bruno, AmeriGlide, and Harmar, platform lifts for wheelchair users, and ceiling lifts from Molift, Handicare, and Arjo. We also offer rental programs and handle all Medicaid and VA paperwork. Our certified Molift installation capability is unique in the Delaware and South Jersey market.
