Key Features of Stiltz Homelifts
Compact Design with Self-Supporting Structure
One standout design feature of a Stiltz homelift is its compact design. They can be installed virtually anywhere within the home, such as in the hallway or living room. Essentially, anywhere that will be beneficial to you.
The lift has a small footprint, meaning it takes up minimal space, occupying less than a square metre, making it beneficial for homes of any size.
Easy Installation
Here at Multicare Mobility, we are proud to partner with Stiltz to offer our customers high-quality lifts that help bring additional freedom and independence to their home life.
These home lifts are designed for quick and easy installation, with fast installation often completed in less than a day. We can install a Stiltz home lift in less than a day, following a short, free, no-obligation home survey to make measurements and decide where it will be installed.
This is because they use a unique dual rail system, supporting the lift from above and below, eliminating the need for load-bearing walls. The modular design also means the lift can be installed in spaces with most doorways, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of home layouts.
Smooth Operation
The Stiltz homelift has a self-contained motor. This means it can operate quietly and smoothly, creating a comfortable experience for users and reducing the noise and vibration often associated with a typical lift. Unlike some domestic lifts that use noisy vacuum systems, Stiltz lifts are designed for quiet operation.
Additional Safety Features
Stiltz is dedicated to offering incredibly high standards of safety. Their home lifts have various safety features such as backup batteries, obstruction sensors and emergency stop buttons. For enhanced safety, a full height light curtain (or height light curtain) is included, especially when the lift is fitted with a half height door, to prevent access to moving parts during operation. An automatic door is also available, improving accessibility and making it easier for users, including wheelchair users, to enter and exit the lift.
In a dangerous situation, the lift will be equipped to stop.

Stiltz lifts are also available in various models and configurations to suit different needs and requirements. This includes the Duo Classic, Duo+, Trio Classic, and Trio+.

Drive System and Mechanism
The Stiltz home lift is engineered with a self-contained drive system and advanced dual rail technology, setting it apart from other home lifts on the market. This innovative drive mechanism uses an electric motor, ensuring the lift operates whisper-quietly, unlike noisy hydraulics found in conventional systems. The lift car travels smoothly along parallel and vertical guides, providing a safe and comfortable ride between floors. In the event of a power cut, the integrated battery backup system allows the Stiltz lift to continue operating, giving users peace of mind and uninterrupted access.
