A stairlift is a motorized chair that runs along a track mounted to your staircase, allowing users to glide up and down stairs with ease. It's one of the most effective accessibility solutions for people with mobility issues—especially in Pittsburgh, where many homes have multiple floors, steep staircases, and older layouts that aren’t easily modified.
Stairlifts are ideal for seniors, individuals with disabilities, and anyone recovering from an injury or surgery. If climbing stairs is painful, dangerous, or simply exhausting, a stairlift offers a simple and reliable alternative to expensive renovations or relocating altogether.
When choosing a stairlift, the configuration of your staircase plays a big role. At 3 Birds Accessibility – Pittsburgh, we install several stairlift models to accommodate different layouts and needs, including:
Our stairlifts include safety features like seatbelts, swivel seats, obstruction sensors, and backup battery power. We help you choose the right model for your home’s layout and your personal comfort.

Stairlifts don’t just improve mobility—they dramatically reduce the risk of falls, improve quality of life, and help you stay independent in the home you love.
