The Newest Stairlift Safety Feature
Acorn is proud to launch the ground-breaking StairSafe monitoring system for your Acorn Stairlift. This one-of-a-kind, additional feature will monitor the activity of your stairlift, providing you and your family with peace of mind.
The StairSafe system consists of a small module installed in your Acorn Stairlift which monitors the location, journey, and usage. All this data feeds back to StairSafe HQ, where if an error is detected, we'll notify you. StairSafe can ease some worries about safety and the possibility of having to pay for maintenance.
