The caregiver assisted stair climber is a unique option for managing stairs in the home and in the community. Battery powered stair lifting devices allow a single caregiver to safely and easily assist someone in a wheelchair up and down the stairs. They are safe and easy to use for indoor and outdoor stairs, and BILD offers programs for both purchase or rental.  We have a mobility lifter demo-unit that is available to trial at our Milwaukee showroom.   We can also bring the stair climber out to your home for a trial of the stair climber device.

Caregiver operated stair climbing devices offer an ideal option for accessibility for indoor or outdoor stairs, for community access, for rental situations.  The device is appropriate for use by an able bodied caregiver, and requires an evaluation to trail different options.  This time-tested stair climbing device has been available in Europe for over 20 years and in the United States over 10 years.
