If you’re considering buying a stairlift but are concerned about the cost of a new model, a reconditioned stairlift is a cost-effective alternative worth looking into. However, people may still be sceptical about the safety of a pre-owned stairlift.
In this post, we’ll explore why reconditioned stairlifts from reputable suppliers like A6 Mobility are as safe as new models and put your mind at ease once and for all.
What Makes a Reconditioned Stairlift Safe?
We believe every reconditioned stairlift must meet strict safety standards before installation. Our company follows a thorough reconditioning process, including testing, parts replacement, and safety checks that match manufacturer specifications.
Safety Testing Standards
Each reconditioned stairlift should undergo a full mechanical inspection and electrical safety testing. Battery performance should be checked, track and rail conditions should be assessed, and all safety sensors should be verified correctly. Such a rigorous process is why our repurposed stairlifts meet the same high standards as new models.
The Refurbishment Process Explained
A thorough refurbishment process takes place to ensure our reconditioned stairlifts are completely safe for daily use.
Initial Assessment
Qualified technicians carefully evaluate each pre-owned stairlift to determine its suitability for reconditioning. We examine the overall condition, age, and history of the unit. Only stairlifts that meet strict criteria move forward to refurbishment.
Quality Parts Replacement
During reconditioning, we replace any worn components, including batteries and upholstery. Safety features are checked and updated where necessary. Technicians use only high-quality, manufacturer-approved parts to guarantee reliability and safety.
Comprehensive Testing
Each stairlift undergoes extensive testing. This includes load testing, speed checks, and emergency stop verification.
We run multiple full-journey cycles for smooth operation and test all safety features under various conditions.
Safety Features of Reconditioned Stairlifts
Essential Safety Components
Every reconditioned stairlift includes essential safety features like obstacle detection sensors and lockable swivel seats.
The smooth start/stop technology matters for comfortable, secure movement, while seatbelts provide additional safety during operation.
Emergency Backup Systems
All reconditioned stairlifts have reliable battery backup systems for continued operation during power outages. The intuitive controls are designed for easy use, even in emergencies.
