In many households a time arrives when the staircase gets in the way of ordinary life: reaching the upstairs bedrooms, going down to the family room in the basement, or coming and going from the house. A stair lift, also called a chair lift or stairlift, deals with it at a reasonable cost and without altering your home.
Nationwide Lifts of Utah fits two Indy models, the narrow Indy Pinnacle and the high-capacity Indy XL.
The Indy Pinnacle is a compact stair lift whose design is well suited to narrow stairways. It can be parked out of the way and called to either floor.
Folded, the Pinnacle is only 11 inches from the wall, and the rail is about six inches out, so the rest of the family can still walk up and down comfortably.
The Indy XL is a heavy duty stair lift for a wide range of body types. It supports up to 600 pounds.
With bedrooms upstairs and family rooms in the basement, a Utah home can mean a dozen trips on the stairs every day. When those trips become tiring or unsafe, a stair lift restores easy access. We install them in Salt Lake City, Provo, Ogden, Park City and along the Wasatch Front.
Our Indy stair lifts ride on a rail fastened to the steps and run on batteries. Call (801) 335-9089 or request a free survey of your stairs.

Stair length, the model and optional features are the main factors. Our article on what affects the price of a stair lift goes through each one.
Many Utah families fit a lift to the basement stairs as well as the main flight, a topic we cover in stair lifts for Utah homes with basement living space. If a wheelchair is involved, compare the options in stair lift vs home elevator or see our home elevators and wheelchair lifts.

Yes. Each staircase has its own lift, and many families start with the one they use most.
A key switch lets you lock the lift when it is not in use.
When folded, the chair sits close to the wall and leaves most of the stair width free.
Keep it on charge, keep the rail clean and have it serviced once a year.
