Name the rooms you want to use.
Write down which rooms you want to reach and when you use them. A bedroom, bathroom or work space on another floor may be the starting point; another short flight could still interrupt the route.
Ask the assessor to show how the proposed lift connects those spaces. If the stairs turn or continue beyond a landing, compare a continuous rail with any separate-lift alternative. Identify every point where you would need to stand or transfer.
For your Shrewsbury comparison, record rail ends, parking space and the boarding positions alongside the price. Involve the person who will use the chair in the demonstration. A solution should make sense in your routine, not only on the staircase drawing.
Three questions for your Shrewsbury comparison
- Which rooms would this route make reachable?
- Does any step or transfer remain outside the proposal?
- Where would I board and leave the chair?
Before requesting an assessment
Describe the route and the rooms you want to reach. Give your actual MA address and ask the provider to confirm service there. The person who will use the chair should be involved in a demonstration and the final choice of seat, controls and stopping positions.
If you are helping someone else, use the printable checklist together. You do not need to choose a model before discussing the route, but the installer needs measurements before confirming fit.
