When your mobility is impaired, the consequences are far-reaching with regard to access in and around one’s home.

Your accessibility at home is majorly affected by changes in level: there’s a fall on stairs every 90- seconds in the UK(1)!

And that doesn’t include similar obstacles such as raised thresholds, steps in/out of the door.

To make life safe for those variations in height round the home environment you often have to install physical equipment- stairlifts, through-floor lift, ramps.

And if you live in a flat, those stairs in ‘common parts’ cannot be physically adapted.

So you are faced not just with the impact on health & wellbeing of physically not being able to do every day activities.

It also impacts you by your home being aesthetically- and physically- altered, or being confined to inside.

That need not be the case.

Our stair-climbing wheelchair (or stairclimber) the S-Max discreetly opens up accessing areas of varying level without any need for alterations to the home environment. 

Because S-Max is completely portable, you need use just the one piece of kit - on multiple flights of stairs in townhouses, over thresholds to outside, on stairs in blocks of flats,

It can even take you out into the wider world. 

Carefully designed to be easy to use, and adjustable to suit the height of each operator, S-Max can attach to most common wheelchairs.

Or we can be supply it with an integral seat for optimal comfort and security during the movement up and down stairs and steps.

The Sella stairclimbing wheelchair can even cope with turns and spiral staircases!

Sella is battery-operated, so there’s no need for mains connection, and each charge powers up to 300 steps!

You can fold it compactly away for storage out of sight.

S-Max has a 20+ years’ track record of making stairs safe, the length and breadth of the UK.

Tailored to you

Our highly-trained team make a full assessment of the person and their environment to ensure whether S-Max would be the right solution

And we can even accessorise the kit for optimal passenger stability, comfort and safety.
