Expert Stairlift Installation in Cheyenne, WY

Straight rails in the post-1990 Western Hills and Dell Range subdivisions install in 2 to 3 hours — standard geometry, modern construction, no surprises. The Capitol North and South Side historic district homes take 3 to 5 hours because of narrow stair widths, foundation-settling shim work, and the precision required to avoid touching original plaster and millwork. Fox Farm-College split-level curved installs take 1 to 2 weeks for rail fabrication, but install day itself is usually under 4 hours.

Yes. Every Cheyenne install ships with a -30-degree-rated lithium iron phosphate battery instead of the factory-default lithium-ion that stops holding charge below 14 degrees Fahrenheit. This is a standing upgrade, not an option, because Cheyenne routinely hits -10 to -25 in January and even interior staircases in poorly insulated older homes — especially the Capitol North and South Side frame houses — can drop below freezing during a sustained cold snap. Outdoor installs get the same cold-rated battery plus a sealed motor housing and heated charge controller.

Yes — and this is our highest-volume curved install in Cheyenne. The 1960s and 1970s Fox Farm-College split-levels almost always have six steps from the foyer to the main level, a 90-degree turn at the mid-landing, and eight more steps to the bedrooms. We laser-scan the staircase on the first visit, fabricate a custom curved rail that carries you from the bottom to the top in a single continuous ride, and add a swivel-exit seat at the upper landing. One ride, no transfers, no carrying groceries while navigating a landing.

Every outdoor stairlift we install in Laramie County gets high-wind-rated seat locks and reinforced mounting brackets rated to 130 mph wind loads as standard spec. Cheyenne sits in the chinook zone where sustained gusts regularly exceed 50 mph in winter and can top 80 mph in severe events. The seat locks prevent the chair from being caught by a gust while parked, and the reinforced mounting ensures the rail stays anchored to the step footings through sustained high-wind loading. We also add a UV-stabilized seat cover because Cheyenne’s high-altitude clear-sky UV index exceeds most southern desert cities.

Yes, through the Wyoming Community Choices Waiver administered by the Wyoming Department of Health Division of Healthcare Financing. Stairlifts qualify as environmental modifications under the individualized care plan. Eligibility requires Wyoming residency, age 65+ or adult disability, Medicaid-eligible income, and an assessment at nursing-facility level of care. The entry point is calling the Wyoming Department of Health at 307-777-7656 to get a case manager assigned. We are an enrolled Wyoming Medicaid provider and handle the service authorization paperwork once you name us.

The Cheyenne VA Medical Center on East Pershing Boulevard is our highest-volume HISA referral source in Wyoming. The VA HISA grant covers up to $6,800 for service-connected disabilities and up to $2,000 for non-service-connected, paid directly to us after a prescription from a Cheyenne VA provider. F.E. Warren retirees, active-duty families aging in place, and the broader veteran population in Laramie County make HISA our busiest funding route in the region. We pre-fill VA Form 10-0103 and work directly with the HISA coordinator at the Cheyenne VA. Typical turnaround is 4 to 8 weeks from prescription to approved payment.

The Wyoming Home Services Program through the Aging Division covers limited environmental modifications for residents age 60 and older. Whether a stairlift qualifies depends on your regional Area Agency on Aging assessment and available funding. Call the Wyoming Aging Division at 1-800-442-2766 to request an assessment. If the program covers part of the cost, we work within their payment process. If it does not cover stairlifts in your region, we walk you through the Community Choices Waiver, VA HISA, the IRS medical deduction, and our financing options during the free assessment.

Yes — three lending partners with 0% APR for qualified buyers and low fixed-rate plans from $79/month. Application is a soft credit pull (no impact to your score), takes about 4 minutes, and approval is usually instant. Many Cheyenne families combine financing with a partial HISA grant or the IRS medical deduction to bring the monthly payment down. We walk you through the math during the free assessment — on paper, at your kitchen table.
