All Minivator stairlifts come with our signature easy to use operating toggle

Most stairlifts require constant pressure on the operating switch to make them work. Keeping this pressure on during travel can be painful, particularly if you have limited mobility in your hands or painful conditions such as Arthritis.

With this in mind Minivator worked with a team of health care professionals to design an operating method that minimised the impact of this requirement for constant pressure on the user.

The resulting toggle switch has become a signature feature of all Minivator stairlifts. It has been designed to be easy to hold in the required direction of travel and eradicates the need for the hand to grasp the control - a benefit that has been hugely appreciated by many of our users.

Minivator stairlifts can also be operated by remote control, all lifts come with a remote control as standard. These hand held remote controls can either allow a carer to operate the stairlift on behalf of the user, whilst walking along next to them, or can be used to send and call the lift between levels. The latter is particularly useful for homes where more than one person benefits from the use of the stairlift.
