Stair Lift Installation in Hurricane, WV

Stair Lifts for Hurricane’s Split-Levels and Two-Story Homes

Hurricane is one of the fastest-growing parts of Putnam County, and the housing here leans toward two-story homes, split-levels, and properties with finished lower levels and walk-out basements. Those layouts are great for growing families, but they become a problem when the main staircase turns into a daily obstacle, whether from age, arthritis, a joint replacement, or a balance issue. A stair lift keeps every floor of the home reachable without selling and moving. As an authorized AmeriGlide dealer, Foxtrot Developments installs new, warrantied AmeriGlide equipment. We take precise measurements of your staircase, talk through who will ride the lift and how, and recommend a model that fits your specific home and budget, then install it and walk you through how to use it.

What a Hurricane Installation Looks Like

We begin with a free in-home visit to your Hurricane property. We walk and measure the full staircase, note any landings, turns, or doorways at the top or bottom, inspect the wall and railing, and locate the nearest electrical outlet. Straight staircases are typically fitted the fastest, with the rail cut to the exact length of your stairs on site. Stairs with a landing or curve need a custom rail manufactured to your precise measurements, which we order and then install once it arrives. On installation day, we mount the rail, position and wire the chair, charge the battery, and run a full loaded test up and down the staircase. Before we pack up, we sit with you and any other riders to go over the joystick, the swivel seat, the seat belt, and the remote call/send controls on both floors. See our complete stair lift installation service for the full range of equipment and options.

Staying in Your Hurricane Home

Most of the Hurricane homeowners we work with have no interest in moving. They have years invested in the house, they like the schools and the neighborhood, and they want to keep their independence as they get older. When the stairs get hard to climb, that is usually what ends the stay in a two-story home. A stair lift fixes the problem for far less than the cost of selling and relocating, and the install takes a single day rather than months of disruption. We are glad to come take a look and talk through the options, for your own future or for a parent near downtown Hurricane or out toward the Teays Valley line, even if you are only gathering information for now.

Service and Support After Installation

Stair lifts are mechanical, and over the years they need battery replacements, occasional service, and worn-part swaps. Serving Hurricane and all of Putnam County from our base in the Kanawha Valley keeps that work a short trip for us. Warranty claims go through us directly to AmeriGlide, we keep common replacement parts on hand, and once a year we will come check the lift and test its safety systems. If your situation changes and you need a different model, we take out the old unit and set up the new one. And if a previous installer left you with a lift from another brand, we also repair stair lifts of every make. To schedule a free estimate, call (304) 590-1163 or reach out through our contact page.
