Features

The Lift

The Kensington Stairlift uses our Wheelstop mechanism. A solid stainless steel toe guard that rises around the platform to prevent wheelchair wheels from rolling off the stairlift. Please see On Lift Barriers for more information.

The lift table can be made to accept any cladding material, the thicker the cladding the deeper the pit depth.

Nominal Platform dimensions for this lift can vary due to site requirements. However they are more than or equal to:

1408mm (l) x 1010mm (w) 0 – 499mm (h)

Please see The Lifting Actuator link for more information on the mechanism used to raise and lower the stairlift.

The Stairs

The Kensington Stairlift can accommodate up to 3 stairs or a total rise of 499mm.

Please see the retracting stair technical page for more information.

The Upper Landing Barrier

As the rise is below 500mm we do not need a barrier at the upper landing. It is advisable that the controls are positioned at the upper landing so that a staff member can better protect against the void that is created when the stairs retract.

Please see Upper Landing Barriers for more information.

User Type

The Kensington Stairlift is for wheelchair users only.Non wheelchair users are often presented with a wheelchair to travel whilst seated on this wheelchair platform stair lift.

Please see on lift barriers for more information.

Variations to the Kensington Stairlift

If the staircase takes on heavy traffic then an upper landing barrier may be recommended as seen on the Sesame Whitehall DDA Lift regardless of the rise

The on lift permanently fixed button post can be upgraded to a rising button post that rises through the lift table when the stairs retract. The post then retracts completely out of site when not in use. This system with an upper landing rising barrier rather than the gate is know as the Sesame Knightsbridge Stair Lift.

The on lift permanent button post can be replaced with a removable hand held post as seen in the following Kensington Stairlift in London 1052 movie

If the pit depth is an issue the Sesame Thames Stair Lift sits within a pit depth of 160mm + cladding thickness.

If the horizontal pit depth is an issue then the Sesame Victoria Stair Lift with vertically retracting stairs may be a solution.
