Our Coverage Area

Stairlift Service Across Cook County

Cook County, IL

From the raised ranches and Cape Cods along Central Avenue — where narrow enclosed staircases connect finished basements to the main floor — to the brick bungalows south of 79th Street and the split-levels near Burbank School District 111, our team has measured stairs in every part of this village. We know which Burbank floor plans have the 28-inch-wide basement stairwell that requires the compact-profile rail, which raised ranches have the 7 steep steps from the front door to the living room, and which Cape Cods have the tight attic staircase with the low header that limits seat height.

We also cover Oak Lawn, Hickory Hills, Justice, Summit, Bedford Park, Bridgeview, and Worth without additional travel charges — the entire southwest Cook County corridor.

Real stories from families across Cook County — drag to scroll, or use the arrows and dots below. Every review came from a verified customer.

Our raised ranch on Central Avenue has the narrow enclosed staircase to the basement — 28 inches wall to wall. Two other companies said the stairs were too tight. All American brought the compact rail, measured twice, and installed it in under three hours. My father uses it every day to get to his workshop downstairs. The seat folds flat and we walk right past it.

Mom has lived in the same Cape Cod on 82nd Street for 43 years and she is not leaving. The stairs to the second floor had become the one thing she could not do alone. Luis measured on Monday, the crew installed on Wednesday. She rides it to the bedroom every night and back down every morning. The quote was written, the price was the price, and the whole thing took three hours.

The bungalow has an L-shaped staircase to the attic bedrooms with a tight turn at the top. Every other installer wanted a straight rail and a transfer platform at the landing — two separate lifts. Luis scanned the staircase, built one continuous curved rail, and installed it in a single day. My mother-in-law rides it up and down without stopping at the turn. One rail, one ride, one quote.

Dad is a Korean War veteran, 91, still in his house in Oak Lawn. The front stoop has seven concrete steps that ice over every winter and the road salt eats everything. The outdoor rail has the freeze-proof battery and galvanized hardware — it rode through the January ice storm without a single issue. The HISA grant through Hines VA covered $6,800. Best money I ever spent on his safety.

We lost power for two days during the December storm and the battery backup kept the stairlift running the entire time. My mother made it to the kitchen for every meal and back to bed every night without asking for help. That feature alone was worth the price. The cold-weather battery is rated for exactly this kind of Chicago winter.

My husband uses a power wheelchair and our home in Justice has a raised entry with five exterior steps. All American installed the platform lift with the yellow safety edges and a keyed lockout. He rolls onto the platform, presses one button, and he is inside. The Illinois Community Care Program covered the full cost. From first call to install was six weeks.

Common Questions

Everything Burbank Homeowners Actually Ask

Straight answers about cost, installation, and funding — no sales fluff. Browse by topic or call us if you have a question that isn't here.

What does a stairlift cost in Burbank right now?

Straight rails in standard Burbank homes run $2,800 to $5,500 installed. Curved rails — needed for homes with landing turns or 180-degree basement switchbacks — run $9,000 to $15,000 because the rail is custom-manufactured. Outdoor models with freeze-proof hardware for Chicago winters run $4,000 to $7,500. Every quote is written, honored for 30 days, and includes installation, rail, seat, battery backup, and the first service visit.

My basement stairs are short — only 8 steps. Is the price lower?

Yes. Shorter runs mean less rail, which lowers the equipment cost. An 8-step basement staircase in a typical Burbank raised ranch needs about 8 feet of straight rail. That is the lower end of our pricing range. The motor, seat, battery backup, and installation labor are the same regardless of length. We give you the exact number at the free assessment.

Are prices different in Burbank than Oak Lawn or Hickory Hills?

Equipment prices are the same across southwest Cook County — we do not inflate quotes by village. What varies slightly is install labor for unusual conditions: preserving original tile in a 1920s bungalow costs a bit more than a standard Burbank raised ranch with carpeted stairs. Line items are on the written quote.

Is a used or refurbished stairlift worth considering?

For straight staircases, a certified refurbished unit can save 30 to 40 percent off a new install — factory-reconditioned with new upholstery, new cold-weather battery, and a 2-year warranty. For curved rails, refurbished is almost never possible because each rail is custom-manufactured. If your Burbank home has a standard straight run to the basement, ask about refurbished inventory during the assessment.

How long does a typical Burbank install take?

Straight rails are 2 to 4 hours on-site. We arrive, confirm measurements, bolt the rail into the treads, mount the seat, test every sensor, and walk you through the controls. Curved rails take 1 to 2 weeks to fabricate but install day is still under 4 hours. No multi-day disruption to your household.

My basement stairs are only 28 inches wide. Can you fit a rail?

Yes. The compact-profile rail fits staircases as narrow as 26 inches, which covers the vast majority of Burbank basement stairwells. The seat folds to just 11 inches, leaving enough clearance for other household members to walk past. Narrow stairs do not increase the equipment price. We verify the clearance at the free assessment.

Will the rail damage my finished basement ceiling or walls?

The rail bolts into the stair treads — it is self-supporting and never touches the wall, the ceiling, or the low header at the top of the basement stairs. We have installed in dozens of Burbank basements with drop ceilings and drywall without touching either. If the lift is ever removed, you are left with small holes in the tread wood and nothing else.

What happens during a winter power outage?

Every stairlift we install runs on a battery backup that charges continuously from a standard 120V outlet. When the power goes out — and it does during Chicago ice storms — the battery keeps the lift running for 15 to 20 round trips. We have had Burbank units ride through multi-day outages without a hiccup. The cold-weather battery is rated to -20 degrees Fahrenheit.

I'm a veteran in Cook County. What VA benefits apply?

The Edward Hines Jr. VA Hospital in Maywood is 15 minutes north of Burbank and processes HISA grants for Cook County veterans. The grant covers up to $6,800 for service-connected disabilities and $2,000 for non-service-connected, paid directly to us after a prescription from your VA provider. We prefill VA Form 10-0103 and coordinate directly with the Hines HISA coordinator. The Cook County Department of Veterans Affairs at 69 W. Washington can also help with additional benefits. Typical turnaround is 4 to 8 weeks.

Does Illinois Medicaid cover stairlifts?

Yes, through the Illinois Community Care Program administered by the Illinois Department on Aging. The program helps seniors age 60 and older remain at home by funding home modifications including stairlifts. You must be determined to need institutional-level care. Contact the Illinois Aging hotline at 800-252-8966 to start the intake. We coordinate with the case manager once you are approved.

Are there any Illinois loan programs for accessibility equipment?

Yes — the Illinois Assistive Technology Program (IATP) offers the ATLoan$ Program with low-interest loans from $500 to $20,000 for home modifications including stairlifts. Below-market interest rates with terms designed for people with disabilities and their families. Contact IATP at 800-852-5110 to start the application. We provide the equipment documentation they require.

Do you offer financing?

Yes — three lending partners with 0% APR for qualified buyers and low fixed-rate plans from $81 per month. Application is a soft credit pull with no score impact, takes 4 minutes, and approval is usually instant. Many Burbank families combine financing with the HISA grant or the IRS medical deduction to reduce the out-of-pocket amount. We walk you through the math during the free assessment.

A word from Luis

Burbank is a village of homeowners — over 80 percent own their houses, and most of those houses are the 1950s and 1960s raised ranches and Cape Cods that define the southwest suburbs. The stairs are narrow, the basements are finished, and the homeowners are not leaving. They call me when the stairs become the one thing standing between them and the house they have lived in for 40 years.

My job is straightforward: drive to your house within 24 hours, measure once, and hand you a written quote honored for 30 days. No pressure. No upsells. The Edward Hines Jr. VA Hospital is 15 minutes north in Maywood, and I've handled the HISA paperwork dozens of times for Cook County veterans.
