All metallic components are either made in aluminum, or are oil annealed
or zinc plated before powder coating. Plastic components are heat and UV
resistant, protecting the stair lift from color fading and ambient heat damage.
-
The ACORN Superglide Outdoor Stair Lift is an ideal solution for
situations involving any staircase that is exposed to the elements, including
garden steps, sun decks, porches, front stoops and garage or basement steps.
The outdoor stair lift is very popular with those lucky enough to live in
beach homes, as it is well protected from the ravages of salt air.
-
-
Even in outdoor configuration, the ACORN Superglide Stair Lift has
world renowned ride quality and performance, making it whisper quiet, smooth
and stable and very easy to use.
-
Included with the stair lift is a durable plastic cover which will keep off
accumulations of leaves and snow.
ACORN (Indoor) Superglide Stair Lifts power supply
ACORN stair lifts are powered by direct current (DC), supplied
by rechargeable batteries, which deliver a smooth, ultra-quiet and safe
ride quality. The batteries are maintenance free and charged by a safe
15 volts AC, which is stepped-down from the domestic mains supply by the
transformer.
-
The stair lift remains operative, even if the mains supply is interrupted
-
There is no mains voltage to any of the operating parts of the stair
lift
-
There are no troublesome trailing mains cables, as with all AC powered
lifts
-
Allows rapid and simple installation, without mess or disruption
-
Delivers smooth and near silent operational characteristics
-
'Soft Start & Stop' means that there is no jolting or lurching
as the lift starts or finishes its journey. This adds to the feeling of safety
and stability.
ACORN Superglide Stair Lifts Safety Features
ACORN Stair Lifts have an impressive array of safety features built
in as standard. These include:
Electronic and mechanical braking systems
The stair lift is fitted as standard with these essential safety systems
to eliminate any possibility of an uncontrolled descent of the stair lift.
Limit sensors
At the end of either an ascent or descent the stair lift will come to a 'soft
stop' due to the limit sensors, these ensure that the stair lift always stops
in the correct position |
Choice of Control
ACORN Superglide Stair Lifts are controlled by, either the mechanical
'joystick' fitted to the seat arm, or by way of the infra red remote
control handset, two of which are supplied. The mechanical controls over-ride
the remote controls. The remote controls are ideal when there are 2 users
in the house so that the lift can be 'sent' or 'called' up - and downstairs.
The wireless design means that there is no unsightly wall mounted wiring
or control stations.

Swivel seat with locking catch
The stair lift seat swivels, and locks in postion, making mounting and
dismounting from the stair lift easy and safe. The stair lift will not operate
unless the seat is in the correct riding position. |
Pressure sensitive safety surfaces
There are 5 surfaces / edges that stop the stair lift in event of a collision
with any obstruction on the stairway. These are located around the footrest,
and on the top and bottom of the carriage. |
 |
|
|
Diagnostic Digital Display
Mounted on the carriage of the stair lift is a digital display, which shows
clearly when the lift is in the normal operating position, and also provide
invaluable diagnosticin the unlikely event of a fault with your stair lift.
 |
|
| Occasionally it is not possible
to use the standard ACORN Superglide stair lift. Perhaps this is because
the stairs are exceptionally narrow, or because the users legs will not bend
enough to allow them to sit down on the stairlift.
ACORN have especially developed the Perch model stair lift to overcome
this problem.
The perch model is easily operated by the remote control system, or alternatively
with the wanderlead control which can be positioned for your maximum comfort
and ease of operation. As with all ACORN Stair lifts the perch model is available
now for rapid installation. |

| Curved Stair Lifts are custom-built for your particular
staircase, it cannot be relocated and therefore has no value
if and when you no longer need it.
Due to their mechanical complexity, curved rail units are not as reliable
as straight stair lifts. Whether we like it or not, the reality is that
curved rail lifts are often troublesome in their operation.
Curved rail lifts require a highly detailed on-site survey, prior to order
and can take up to 3 months to be built and delivered. It is neither
practical nor advisable to self-install this type of stair lift.
If your staircase has a sub-landing (a flat platform) where it turns, you
should consider the option of installing two straight stair lifts,
as an alternative to one curved unit. This assumes that the user is capable
of transferring from one stair lift to the other on the flat landing, of
course. We accept that this is not always possible, but are always on hand
to offer advice and guidance.
A double installation of two straight stair lifts from
ACORN will provide the following benefits to you.
-
An average cost saving of $5000.00
-
A neater, more reliable stair lift system
-
A stair lift system that is easy to remove or re-locate.
-
Two stair lifts that each have a significant re-sale value
-
Delivery within five working days
-
Self-installation is easy and cost effective

technically challenging and requiring specialist tools and knowledge. That
is certainly the case with many competitor products - but not so with the
ACORN Superglide. This stairlift has been designed with self-installation
in mind and many hundreds of people have installed the stairlift themselves
and saved a significant sum of money in the process.
Naturally you can expect us to be there for you, should you need a friendly
tip, or if you should run into trouble. Simply call our toll-free number

| My brother and I returned to Atlanta on October 9th - the stairlift
arrived on Oct 10th, just as you indicated it would. My brother and I have
good mechanical abilities and the installation went smoothly - anyone, even
with limited ability could have completed the installation. Your product
is marvelous! It's well engineered, safety mechanisms well thought out. Very
smooth operation. Your stair lift has given our family peace of mind. Best
of all, my folks love it! Anyone who comes over gets a ride! Mr G St.C
