Supplied, installed, and serviced across Greater Vancouver by Home2stay
Key features built into every HomeGlide
Engineered for daily reliability, comfort, and safety. Every Access BDD stairlift installed by Home2stay arrives fully equipped with standard features designed for everyday peace of mind.
Slim Rail Stair-Mounted Design
The clean aluminum rail fixes securely to the stair treads rather than the wall, enabling neat installation with minimal disruption to your home.
One-Handed Retractable Seatbelt
A retractable safety belt with a stainless steel buckle fastens smoothly with one hand, backed by an interlock sensor that confirms engagement before travel.
Soft-Touch Joystick Control
The armrest features an ergonomic joystick with a comfortable grip, requiring light hand pressure to guide the lift smoothly up and down the staircase.
Narrow Staircase Fit
Engineered for compact living, the HomeGlide fits straight staircases as narrow as 740 mm (29 in), folding neatly when parked to keep the stairs open.
Obstruction Detection & Safety Stop
Sensors around the carriage and footplate automatically detect objects or obstacles on the steps, halting movement safely and instantly.
Available options for your HomeGlide
Tailor your stairlift to suit your staircase layout, decor preferences, and personal mobility needs. Our assessment specialists help you choose the upgrades that make sense for your home.
Powered Folding Hinge Rail
An automatic powered folding rail retracts the bottom track section once the chair moves away, keeping doorways and busy hallways fully unobstructed.
HomeGlide Extra Comfort Package
Includes a powered swivel seat that turns automatically at the top landing, a linked footrest that unfolds with the chair, and a keylock to prevent unintended use.
Adjustable Seat Height
With the HomeGlide Extra upgrade, four selectable seat heights provide a personalized fit tailored to your preferred seated posture and leg length.
