Buying a stairlift is a quick way to improve the accessibility of your home. Stairlifts are easy to fit in most staircases and require very little building work, which means that the investment, in terms of time and money, is relatively small. However, it may be good to know that there are other fast and easy alternatives that will offer you a higher level of comfort and increase the propery value of your home much more than a stairlift ever will. Like, for example, Kalea’s space-saving, ready-made vertical lift solutions that will integrate seamlessly with all kinds of staircases.
Just like stairlifts, Kalea’s vertical platform and cabin lift solutions can be delivered and installed very fast. This is due to the fact that all vertical lifts by Kalea are delivered in ready-made elements and are so space-efficient that lift installation only requires minimal building alterations. However, there are also differences. For example, a vertical lift is slightly bigger than a stairlift, both in terms of size and investment, and it takes a few days more to install, but at the end of the day, it will also add a much greater value to your home than a stairlift.
If you think that you only have room for a stairlift, think again! The Kalea Kosmos and the Kalea A4 Mini can be installed on a floor space of just 1m2, and, if that is still not small enough, we also offer lifts equipped for outdoor installation.

If you are looking for a wheelchair-friendly elevator, we recommend a platform size of 900 x 1400 mm (w x d) or bigger, for platform elevators, or a lift car size of 1100 x 1400 mm (w x d), for cabin elevators. However, if you are just looking for a lift to add comfort to your home, you can go as small as you want. Kalea offers you the choice between two types of lifts, that both have their advantages:
