Expert Stairlift Installation in Antelope, CA

We bought our two-story off Walerga Road in 1993 when the subdivision was brand new. The stairs are between two drywall walls with no banister. Two other companies said they couldn't install without cutting into the drywall. All American measured, mounted a slim-profile rail on the left wall, and my mother rides it every morning and evening. The seat folds flat and the grandkids walk right past it.

Mi mamá no habla inglés and I worried about communication. Luis came out, conducted the entire visit in Spanish, and walked her through every button twice. The Spanish-language manual is taped next to the controls in the kitchen. She calls it her escalera and rides it eight times a day. The brown seat sits next to her sideboard at the bottom landing — she likes that it disappears into the wood tones.

Our home on Elverta Road has a staircase with a 90-degree turn at the upper landing. Two companies wanted to install two separate lifts. All American scanned the whole run and fabricated one curved rail. My husband rides from the front entry to the upstairs bedroom without stopping. Five months in with zero issues. The HISA grant from the Sacramento VA covered $6,800 of the cost.

I served 22 years in the Air Force out of McClellan and my knees are gone. The Sacramento VA in Mather wrote the HISA prescription and All American prefilled every form on VA Form 10-0103. The grant covered $6,800 and I was riding the platform lift four weeks after my first call. No runaround, no paperwork headaches. The yellow safety edges on the platform are bright enough I see them from the doorway.

Dad needed the lift before Thanksgiving and I live in San Diego. I called Monday, they measured Tuesday morning, installed Thursday. The outdoor lift handles his raised front porch — five flagstone steps he hadn't used since August because of Valley heat and his bad knees. He was out front watching the neighbors walk their dogs Friday morning. The IP55 motor housing keeps Sacramento County dust out of the gearbox.

I use a power wheelchair full-time after a service-connected injury and a regular stairlift was not going to work. All American installed an inclined platform lift along the indoor stairway with yellow safety edges so I can see exactly where to roll on. The HISA grant and Medi-Cal HCBA Waiver together covered the full cost. I ride between floors without leaving my chair. The 600-lb rated deck handles me and the chair with margin.
