Handicare Freecurve Stairlift

The Stairfriend 23 curved stairlift features a custom fabricated twin rail system for a great fit on your staircase. Configure the Stairfriend 23 for turns, curves and intermediate landings, as well as out-of-the-way parking. The Stairfriend 23 is known for its reliability and no-nonsense simplicity. Choose from two seats, with a 300lb standard capacity and option for up to a 350lb.

Using our proprietary PS4D photo-measuring system, your local dealer precisely measures your staircase for custom fit. The travel rail is fabricated in just a few weeks in our factory, and installation takes not more than one day. The stairlift installs directly onto your stairs, maximizing the clearance on the stairs to pass by when the stairlift is not in use.


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.
Add a top or bottom overrun to have the stairlift travel farther away from the landings for a more convenient on/off area.
The standard lift includes keyed opportunity for security, but you can also order it as keyless.
Add an emergency stop bottom on the armrest (included in Quebec).
A five-point harness can be added for additional security on the chair in place of the retractable seat belt. You can upgrade to 350lb capacity.
The Stairfriend 23 offers a choice of two seat designs. The L seat is traditional look (arms width up to 21.5″), whereas the V seat is more minimalist with open areas on the back and sides, which some find more comfortable due to its more spacious feel (arms width up to 20.5″).
