Expert Stairlift Installation in Bergenfield, NJ

Luis installed our straight stairlift in March and I wish we'd done it two years sooner. My mom lives with us in our Bergenfield West colonial and those steep oak stairs were getting dangerous — she'd grip the banister and lean hard. Luis came out the next day, measured, and had the rail in three days later. Install took under three hours. The seat charges on the rail so there are no cords to trip over. Best money we've spent on this house.

We needed a curved lift for our 1920s home near Cooper's Pond. The staircase has a 90-degree turn at a half-landing under the chandelier and I worried it would look industrial. Luis showed us photos of curved installs in similar Bergenfield colonials. The custom rail took three weeks to fabricate. The crew worked carefully around our original woodwork — the rail hugs the wall, the chair tucks at the top. My wife gets to the bedroom now without me walking behind her.

I live alone in a split-level off Murray Hill Terrace. After my knee surgery the six tile steps to the kitchen might as well have been Mount Everest. Luis put in a short straight rail — about eight feet — and I was using it the same afternoon. The seat folds up flat against the wall so the narrow hallway stays clear. No sales pitch, no upselling. He looked at the stairs, told me what I needed, and did it.

Our 1970s bi-level near South Prospect has two short flights with thick carpet that made the tread edges hard to feel. My father-in-law moved in and the stairs were a daily worry. Luis installed a straight lift right through the carpet — no tearing up. The chair swivels at the landing so Dad gets off facing the hallway. He uses it six or seven times a day with no issues.

The outdoor lift Luis installed at our raised ranch near Memorial Field has been through two Bergenfield winters now. Before, my husband had to spot me up those stone steps every time I came home. The lift sits exposed to everything — and the motor hasn't skipped once. Seat cover still looks new. Marine-grade upholstery isn't marketing talk; it actually holds up to the freeze-thaw and the road salt off New Bridge Road.

My mother is Korean and was stubborn about not wanting 'one of those chair things' in our Washington Avenue cape. Luis came for the free assessment and spoke with her directly through me — patient, no pressure. He showed her how the rail color matched the wall trim. Install took a morning. She rides it every day now and stopped complaining about her knees. Three of her friends in the Korean church have called Luis since.
