Helix Mobile Stairlift – Battery Powered Stair Climbing Chair

The Helix Mobile Stairlift is a portable, battery-powered stair climbing chair designed for curved, rounded, spiral and straight staircases. Its independent motorized crawler tracks are designed to maintain stable contact while navigating turning and irregular stair layouts that standard straight-stair mobile stairlifts cannot accommodate.

Portable Stairlift for Curved and Straight Stairs

Unlike permanent rail-mounted stairlifts that require custom installation and home modifications, the Helix provides portable seated stair access without permanent installation. The user remains seated in an upright position while an operator controls powered movement up or down the staircase.

With a 400 lb weight capacity and climbing range of up to 120 flights per charge, the Helix is designed for frequent stair use in homes, caregiving environments, recovery situations, travel and rental applications.

Designed for Curved, Rounded and Spiral Staircases

The Helix features a flexible crawler track system designed for curved, rounded, spiral and straight stairs. Its independent drive tracks help maintain contact around turns and changing stair geometries. The unit can operate on wood, carpet, tile, concrete and most common stair surfaces when properly secured.

Portable Stair Access Without Permanent Installation

The Helix offers an alternative to permanent stairlift systems for homes where installing a rail-mounted lift is impractical or undesirable. Its portable design allows the unit to be used when needed and stored or transported when not in use.

Folding Design for Travel and Storage

When stair access is not required, the Helix folds for storage and transportation. Its portable design makes it suitable for families who travel, multi-location caregivers, rental programs and situations where a backup mobility solution is needed.

Operator-Controlled Mobility

The Helix combines an upper control handle with lower assist handles to provide flexibility during operation. Its four-wheel transport system also allows the unit to move across flat surfaces before and after stair travel.
